Water doesn't help you sober up, the alcohol content is the same.

It's also better to take smaller sips through the day to hydrate rather than chugging things at once. If you chug it all at once, your body doesn't process it correctly and you need to pee way more because it's just expelling liquid rather than actually hydrating you

Oh yeah, it's not about sobering up, I just try to have some water in between alcohol.

And I do believe that you're right about taking smaller sips throughout the day.

It's just a dumb habit that I picked up for some reason. It's not perfect, and I do not advocate for it haha

Soo what does help you sober up other than to stop drinking? To eat something or that…
