    You mean when drunk? If so you'll be fading fast within an hour or so. 'Sobering up' with coffee is overrated and not actually good for you or your heart/blood pressure and brain function.

    If sober and normal and you've stayed up all night then it'll probably be fine but again, you'll probably fade fast within a 3-4 hrs. I do this a lot but hate coffee so I have a 4-5hr nap at about 10am.

    Like I always say, even 2-3hrs sleep is better than none.

    Jealous much?

    Besides, I didn't say it was me, just asking for general consensus. Was supposed to be a poll, but I forgot.

    As a general rule, if one is camping, and the fire is low, it's too late to go to bed when you can actually see what you're doing!

    No. You will just be a wide awake drunk.

    It is too late to go to bed when it is time to get up for work.

    Yes. A coffee will help sober one up.

    Has anybody here ever sobered up using those Andrews liver salts or Alka seltzer?

    I have never tried either.

    Never tried that Pro plus either, they're just strong caffeine tablets

    Depends on the coffee and how much you are used to chugging down each day.

    Too much coffee makes you a bit wild eyed, might mumble a lot on the early morning bus. But at least no one will sit beside you.

    Kurgen, well, after for sure. I'm a fat fook so any expenditure of energy causes me to crash into sleep.

    Nothing worse than sloppy drunken love-making.

    ...and she [or he] loves it.

    I just tried that MisTy. About 22,700,000 results (0.69 seconds) and guess what! Teak Door is top of the list!

    https://teakdoor.com/the-teakdoor-lou...te-go-bed.html (At what point is it too late to go to bed and will a coffee sober one up?)

    So that proves that TD is the best place to ask that particular question. It must be true. Google says so.

    And well done to Willy for having the foresight to ask the question here. Willy is leading the way for the whole internet.

    It's basically just sodium bicarbonate or common 'baking soda' anyway. Doesn't really sober you up, but sorts out an acid stomach (alkaline properties), uric acid in blood etc.
    Used it myself to sort out Gout (gone forever) problems. Shedloads of other supposed benefits as well. Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) Archives | Dr. Sircus

    If you're needing tons of coffee or Pro plus to get through the day, it's mibbe time to spend it doing something else, tbh.
