Hangovers seem to be pretty self-explanatory; someone has a little too much of a substance, and they're tired, hangry and frustrated with their decisions from the night before. It's a pretty terrible feeling and I've heard that it only gets worse as I get older, so I have that to look forward to. But, what people don't realize is that there are different types of hangovers. College students experience almost every type, even if they don't realize it.
1. The party hangover
Otherwise known as the traditional hangover. Waking up and realizing that you still reek of vodka makes you question what drink put you a little over the edge last night.
2. The regret hangover
Leslie Knope pretty much sums up what we're feeling. Alcohol may or may not have been involved, but regret hangovers don't go away when your headache does; that only happens when your friends promise to never bring up any decision you made the night before ever again.
3. The studying hangover
A hangover induced by school is just an awful experience. Barely getting any sleep and staring at PowerPoint slides for 14 hours can cause similar symptoms to a party hangover; headaches, fatigue, nausea and all around hatred for anyone that tries to talk to you.
4. The exercise hangover
This one happens when you go to the gym for your monthly visit and are sore for the next three weeks. Not only are you sore, but you also have no motivation to ever get on a treadmill again.
5. The drama hangover
Waking up from a nap and seeing your group chat going OFF about some girl who tried to hook up with their boyfriend last night makes me wonder why people are the way that they are. Drama hangovers can last days, weeks, or months if you're that unfortunate.
