After heavy drinking sessions does anyone on here start to shake or twitch quite a lot.

When in prague for example on the last night we went out I was drinking my pint and my arm was shaking so much I spilled some :(

Alcohol is bad people!

Do you get the shakes?
 
yeah sometimes I struggle to make a roll-up I get the shakes so much, keep spilling the baccie out of the damn paper :eek:

drink more water inbetween sessions is the answer
 
Isn't that a sign of alcoholic withdrawal? - someone may be able to correct me, but I know a few people who are/were heavy drinkers and they complained about the shakes

oh boy prague is bad. went on a pub crawl with my hostel and didnt get back till 7am :(

plus the fact that for 6 beers in some places its just over £2.50. Each night I got lost and wondered around lost after cheap drinks in karlovy lazne :o
 
I'm slowly winding down to a stop with my drinking. I just don't think it does me any favours.

(I'm a student as well)

I'm fed up of that "lets go out and drink till we end up in hospital" attitude from my mates, it just looks pathetic now.

Also, I had a bad liver illness last year (I turned yellow!) and I think the pain of that has probably influenced my choice heavily.

Yeh, im going your way. After 3 years at uni (still got 1 left) I think my liver has taken a beating. This maybe the cause for me getting drunk so quickly now. Ibiza in 2 weeks though, so my body will take another beating, at least i'll burn off some pounds dancing and save my liver ;)
 
You have to be careful with the liver. It has a remarkable ability to repair itself, and can take a huge amount of abuse. But once the damage goes so far, that's it, you're irreversably fibbllebobbled.

I stick to just beer these days, with an occasionaly White Russian at Christmas. Hangovers used be something I could handle, with just physical symptoms, but these days the headaches and nausea are accompanied by a dreadfull sense of crushing depression, like looking into a black hole of hopelessness and futility.

I'm off to the pub.

I get baaaaaaaad shakes the morning after a heavy shesh but I think I know the reason. The gf is diabetic and she has similar effects when she goes hypo so I reckon it's your blood sugar level dropping off. Have something to eat and it fixes itself.

Edit: banja the Irish f word is likely to get you a holiday ;)
 
A guy i went to uni with drunk so much he shook all the time, was wierd to see.

I'd see it as a sign to maybe stop drinking for a bit? lol
 
Yep i've had the shakes before, but i only get them when i'm totally slaughtered the night before. People at the Liverpool meet may be able to comment on my shakes the next day :o
