Depends on how much you drank. Vomiting is your body's way of getting the peroxide out. Keep vomiting, you should feel better. If after half an hour or so you still feel I'll, seek medical attention. If a child swallowed peroxide, don't take any chances, get to the er.

If I put hydrogen peroxide on my hand and after it dries I licked my hand is this bad?

The amount of hydrogen peroxide you would consume under these circumstances in minimal and not anything to worry about. The trace amount (if any) you'd get from licking your hand after it had dried should be safe.Concentrated hydrogen peroxide is unstable and will severely damage skin on contact (it can also explode), so don't mess around with that, and never drink even dilute (3-5%) hydrogen peroxide, but it's not much of a health hazard in part per million quantities they way, say, cyanide is. It's also, as mentioned, unstable and degrades to water and oxygen fairly quickly in the environment. It's sometimes used as an eco-friendly alternative to chlorine in water purification for that reason.
