We’ve all been there – waking up after a night of indulgence with a pounding headache, a dry mouth, an empty stomach, and a sense of unease that seems to wash over us like a tidal wave. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as “hangxiety,” an uncomfortable union between physical hangover symptoms and anxiety, affecting both physical well-being and mental health.

It’s that dreaded feeling of facing the day after a night of overindulgence. But fear not, because Mobile IV Medics is here to help you bid farewell to hangxiety and greet the morning with a fresh, revitalized perspective.

What is Hangover Anxiety (Hangxiety)?

Hangxiety is a term used to describe the feeling of anxiety that often accompanies a hangover. It’s a result of the body’s physiological response to excessive alcohol consumption. Individuals with alcohol use disorder are more prone to experiencing hangxiety. Even feeling nauseous or being in pain can cause anxiety.

Moreover, the brain fog that is part of a typical hangover can leave you wondering what you’re forgetting, what day it is, and whether you’re late for work or missed an appointment. As alcohol is metabolized, it can disrupt the body’s delicate balance of neurotransmitters, leading to feelings of restlessness, unease, and even panic. Prolonged hangxiety, lasting for two or three days, could be indicative of alcohol withdrawal.

Those with preexisting mental health conditions are at higher risk for hangxiety.

Alleviating Hangxiety With IV Drip Therapy

One solution that works wonders to alleviate hangxiety is an IV drip that is formulated just for hangovers. The reason these are so effective is because they are administered intravenously, bypassing your already sensitive stomach, and delivering the exact right nutrients to help combat the symptoms of hangover–especially dehydration.  

Many people take part in drinking alcohol, and sometimes we all go a bit overboard. For those drinking alcohol who suffer from post-drinking anxiety, IV therapy can be extremely beneficial when it comes to the physical or emotional pain that a hangover can cause. IV therapy can also help manage hangxiety that may be exacerbated by alcohol and medication interactions.

Not only can a Hangover IV help with the usual physical symptoms of consuming too much alcohol, but it can also benefit your psychological symptoms and negative effects that arise from alcohol detox.

How IV Therapy Works When You Drink Alcohol

IV therapy is a safe and efficient way to receive essential nutrients, vitamins, and fluids directly into your bloodstream. Unlike traditional methods of consumption, where the digestive system can filter out some of the benefits, IV therapy ensures that your body gets the full spectrum of nutrients it needs for optimal functioning.

A blood alcohol concentration of 0.055 tends to increase feelings of relaxation and reduce shyness, but as the effects of alcohol wear off, anxiety can return. IV therapy can help manage these effects by replenishing lost fluids and essential nutrients, aiding in quicker recovery.

How Does IV Therapy Alleviate Hangxiety & Physical Hangover Symptoms?

  • Rapid Rehydration: IV drips deliver fluids directly into the bloodstream, quickly replenishing the body’s hydration levels, which is essential after alcohol-induced dehydration.
  • Nutrient Boost: IV drips are packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes that are often depleted during excessive drinking. These nutrients help restore balance and support optimal bodily functions.
    • IV therapy can help address folic acid deficiency, which is linked to mood symptoms and anxiety, especially after alcohol consumption.
  • Alleviates Nausea: IV therapy can help soothe an upset stomach and reduce feelings of nausea, providing relief from one of the common discomforts associated with hangovers.
  • Eases Headaches: The combination of hydration and nutrient infusion can alleviate headaches and migraines, providing quick relief from the pounding head that often accompanies hangovers.
  • Reduces Inflammation: IV therapy can help reduce inflammation in the body, which can be exacerbated by alcohol consumption. This can lead to an overall feeling of well-being and comfort.
  • Improved Mental Clarity: IV therapy can enhance cognitive function and mental clarity, helping to alleviate feelings of anxiety symptoms or brain fog that often accompany hangovers.
  • Boosts Energy Levels: IV therapy can provide a rapid energy boost, helping you feel more alert, focused, and energized, which can be especially beneficial when dealing with hangover-related fatigue.
  • Speeds up Recovery: IV therapy accelerates the body’s natural recovery process, helping you bounce back more quickly from the effects of excessive alcohol consumption.
  • Supports Detoxification: IV therapy aids the liver and kidneys in their detoxification processes, helping to eliminate toxins and byproducts of alcohol metabolism from the body more efficiently.
