hungover
Regretting last night
Hungover describes the unpleasant physical state following heavy alcohol consumption—headache, nausea, fatigue, sensitivity to light.
I was so hungover I couldn't get out of bed until noon.

Someone perpetually hungover might be called a drunk; someone occasionally hungover had a rough night.
