Does anyone else nearing their mid 30s or older feel like hangovers and "hangxiety" lay them out more than they did in their 20s?

Re: Those dark feelings. In December I lost a beloved pet years before his time after a weeks long struggle. Learned that I have an OCD like reaction to crisis and trauma. The cliche is people drink to forget but alcohol didn’t feel appealing at all for that purpose. I started doing intense strength building workouts and those help in a limited capacity. It basically forces your mind into the present and into your body. And the chemicals it floods your brain with will improve your mood and clarity very noticeably for an hour maybe?

I was hoping dry January would be a life raft but I don’t feel anything profound. Maybe if you binge drink it’ll have a bigger effect, my problem is/was having a 2-3 every night.

To directly answer the question; Hangovers are definitely worse when you get older but you can also know your body better from years of experience and learn how to avoid them.
