If he didn’t wake up thinking he was now a woman demanding others use different pronouns to address him then it can’t be all bad.
“Call me Ma’am!”
My high school chemistry teacher was a chemist at Richardson Merrill before becoming a teacher and she worked on development of NyQuil.
After NyQuil took off, R-M management wanted another OTC blockbuster and they set out to find a hangover cure. The development staff took turns getting precisely drunk and then having blood drawn over the next 24-36 hours to see what a hangover looks like from a blood chemistry perspective.
They found that the alcohol stripped the body of quite a few “oily” vitamins, there was significant inflammation and the body was generally dehydrated.
They tried a combination of OTC multivitamins, aspirin and water. It worked.
They then concluded it was unmarketable.
So, as we packed off to college, she told us that if we are going out for a night of drinking (legal age then = 18), when we went to bed, we should take two multivitamin pills, two aspirin and drink two glasses of water (or orange juice). She said we should set it out by our bedside before we went out for the evening.
Every time I did this, it worked.
FYI.
True. Only monkey pox will tell us for sure.
If there is no, "last drink" we could be pals.
One New Year’s Eve during my early thirties I took a double dose of Sudafed (active ingredient: pseudoephedrine) before commencing the celebrating. I consumed maybe eight or ten beers and about a half-pint of 100 proof whiskey through the course of the evening, but still managed to walk home. Took a mega dose of vitamin B complex before going to bed.
Got up the next morning and didn’t feel too bad. Drank a lot of water and Pepsi, which seemed to help.
Nowadays celebrating like that would probably put me in the ER, so I don’t chance it.
Giving one children’s good advice is always a a parents reasonability.;
No matter how old they are.
My advise is be responsible and enjoy your life.
I don’t have to tell him to be a good person. Why? Because he is. Fortunately we have a bond. So he can come to me. I don’t need to nag him. I raised him right. And I was blessed. He learns from not just his mistakes. But even more from others.
I’m sorry if you don’t have confidence in your adult children. But, he’s a man now and I refuse to nag any man. Perhaps step back and see if your parenting skills worked in your adult kids.

what few people have done is make the association between sugar and alcohol. they are actually two sides of the same coin.
too much glucose in the blood strips out a lot of vitamins and minerals. its been recently found that people with alzheimer’s and type II diabetes have low levels of vitamin b1. that taking these vitamins has a protective effect against amyloid plaques.
