At Denovo Recovery, we know alcohol affects the body and mind. Waking up hungover too often? That could mean drinking too much or even dependency. An occasional hangover is normal, but frequent ones might signal a deeper issue. Understanding your drinking habits is key to long-term health.
Understanding Hangovers
A hangover is your body’s reaction to too much alcohol. Symptoms include:
- Headaches – Dehydration and inflammation trigger pain.
- Fatigue – Alcohol disrupts sleep, leaving you drained.
- Nausea & Stomach Issues – Alcohol irritates digestion, making it harder to process food.
- Anxiety & Mood Swings – Alcohol affects brain chemicals, causing emotional shifts.
Hangovers get worse with heavy drinking, drinking on an empty stomach, or lack of hydration. Regular binge drinking increases their severity.
Why Are You Always Hungover?
If you often wake up hungover, here’s why:
- Drinking too much – Going over recommended limits leads to frequent hangovers.
- Dehydration – Alcohol causes water loss, making symptoms worse.
- Poor sleep – Drinking disrupts deep sleep, leaving you tired.
- Increased tolerance – Needing more alcohol to feel effects leads to overdrinking.
- Alcohol dependence – Regular drinking and frequent hangovers can be warning signs.
When to Be Concerned
Ask yourself:
- Do I drink more than planned?
- Do I use alcohol to cope with stress?
- Do I feel guilty or regret drinking?
- Have I tried to cut back but failed?
- Is drinking affecting my health, work, or relationships?
If you answered yes, it’s time to assess your drinking habits.
