I'm so damn depressed so I have decided to go and get drunk on Monday morning after my first lecture at university, I won't be driving and will be with a sober person, I need to know how to get rid of the hangover by 3pm before I go home so my parents know nothing. I'll be drinking my misery away from 8.30am!

You want to drink to get stinking drunk and then want to be sober by 3 pm...It aint gonna happen!!!! Getting drunk will not solve anything, infact it could cause more problems. Obviously you are not a drinker, and to plan a binge as you describe, is a wake-up call that you need guidence.
You may be clinically depressed and need medication to help you out of it. I would suggest talking to your parents, and seeing a doctor!
If you follow through with your plan, YOU WILL REGRET IT!
Good Luck!!!

You have tremendous opportunities and future...and all you want to do is get drunk..because you are so depressed? I wish I had more sympathy for you, but, sorry, I don't. Nothing you do is likely to fool your parents, so don't bother. I would skip the drunk and talk with somebody about why you are feeling so down. Did you not really want to go to college..at least right now? That is fine. I wanted to go out and work a while, myself, to try and figure out what I really wanted to do. But, I had no options at the time in my country other than the military...There was conscription..and there was a war on. You are fortunate to have more options.

Alcohol is a depressant so your mood will be lifted after 3-4 drinks and then with more alcohol you will go back down the depression route, and you will be pissed so you are likely to do stupid things.
The worst thing someone suffering depression can do is get pissed! The best way to stop a hang over is not to drink! I think you can see the point I'm making here!
You need to talk to someone, drowning your sorrows will NEVER EVER help EVER!!!! It's dangerous and you are likely to hurt yourself or someone else in the process.

If you drink something that basically works on your body like a poison then you can't pick and choose the symptoms you get. Dizziness, disorientation, vomiting, dehydration. You pick one, you get the lot.
The fact that you have PLANNED to dramatically get drunk for effect just strikes me as a bit sad and is more about a cry for attention than anything else.
Why not just stand and cry in the middle of your classroom, everyone will think the same about you and you'll get the attention you want.
Either that or rather than going on about how depressed you are and how tragic your life is and how you have to turn to alcohol (in a pre-planned and rather childish way) but you can't let mummy find out... ACTUALLY DEAL WITH YOUR PROBLEMS. Then you won't be so depressed.
Good Luck!! xx

 okay 1st of all, you wont need a hangover cure, u will still be drunk! The alcohol will be in your system untill way after 3! Drinking when ur upset isnt a good idea, alcohol is a depressant.Think about this before u do it, the result of a happy few hours may not be what you expect.Good luck
