Any of you use this? Red Bull and Coffee are not cutting it any more. I seem to have developed a tolerance for Red Bull- heart is pounding but I still get sleepy and coffee gives me tar-like shits that require 2 rolls of toilet paper to clean my ass.

No Doz are pills with 200mg of coffee and the blurb says it is equivalent to a cup of joe. I popped 3 pills in 6 hours, which kept me up.

The next day I feel like shit. Was able to sleep but when I woke up it felt like I had no sleep at all. Sure it keeps you awake, but the next day you feel even more fucked than before, almost as if you had no sleep to begin with.

Get the No-Doze plus it is same as No-Doze but with vitamins that wake you up even more, this may help you feel better the next day, or maybe not.

ive not often used No Doz, but my brother uses a drug called adrafinil. the catch is you have to order if from France.

i've used it on a number of occasions, with pretty high satisfaction. it doesn't make me jittery, or shitty, and apparently is relatively side effect free. :rolleyes:

i think it's mostly prescribed to the elderly in europe, but it does the job pretty well. if you want, i can find out where he orders his supply.

My buddy got himself caught in a vicious cycle by keeping himself awake with a heavy dose of No-Doz and cigarrettes. He started having trouble getting to sleep at night however so he jump-started his sleep cycle with alcohol. This resulted in crueling hang-overs the next morning which he combated with more No-Doz and cigarettes. Rinse and repeat.

You should try this stuff called piracetam. My roommate bought some and its awesome, it doesn't have an overpowering effect or anything. The best way to put it is that it helps uncloud your brain. Thoughts come quicker and clearer, its pretty cool.

Highly reccomended, very subtle but noticeable effect.

I had a couple of scary episodes with caffeine pills, so I'm staying far away from those. I think 200 mg is equal to about 3 Red Bulls....

Provigial (modafinil) is prescription, as Walter noted. Adrafinil is basically the same thing, non-prescription, and can be mail-ordered from overseas under the weird laws currently in force.

I tried some. It was great. You stay awake but un-buzzed and un-jittery, and when it wears off you just fall asleep normally. Great for the last 4 hours of a marathon drive, when getting sleepy would be extremely dangerous.

I use NoDoze for road trips. About one every four hours. Coffee makes me pee and eventually upsets my stomach. I sleep just fine but I sleep with coffee too. I keep a jar in the truck for late night drives home.

this is because you only get non-REM sleep. your body needs REM sleep to function the way it is supposed to. When you only get non-REM sleep its like not getting any sleep at all and your body goes into like a state of "rebound" and is yearning for REM sleep so it makes you more tired and your body tries even harder to get that REM sleep the next night. When you only get non-REM sleep its usually induced by some outside force like a drug. Alcohol for instance, when drank in excess, makes you pass out and you will be out like a fuckin rock and all your friends can draw dicks on your forehead but you actually dont get any REM sleep during this time. thats why the next day your usually pretty out of it - along with the dehydration effects.


My buddy got himself caught in a vicious cycle by keeping himself awake with a heavy dose of No-Doz and cigarrettes.

getting hooked on shit like this is pretty stupid because you grow tollerances and the drugs have a synergetic effect, meaning they feed off each other so the effects on your body are twice as bad and its usually hard to get off an addiction to this shit because since your body grows a strong tollerance it needs these drugs, thats why people usually go into depression or start taking other drugs while trying to quit.

needless to say if you dont let yourself get addicted or grow a tollerance to these drugs than fuck it its cool. dont have any other recs for drugs, everyone else has pretty much covered that ....^^^

Why don't you just do a lines of coke? It's probably cheaper than a big box of No-Doz anyhow.

I know it's an old-fashioned solution, but have you ever considered getting more sleep? :rolleyes:

Just did a 100 hour ambulance shift.

Caffiene drip wide open through a 14ga was what i needed.

PU- I think you need to reset your caffiene clock back down. This is similar to the "month off" booze treatment. Prepare yourself for some crushing headaches (combat with more drugs but not caffiene). Maybe don't go cold turkey but limit to ONE cuppa joe in the morning (read: not a 64oz 7-11 special).

Get more sleep.

Right now you're simply in an arms race and eventually will lose.

Basically organic Ephedra. I got strung out on that shit while I was taking some "Herbal Suplament" for a while. It will keep you wired for hours. Side effects = heart palpitation (heart attack?), hiper tension, mood swings, etc.

I can't believe no one has mentioned what caffeine pills did to jessie on saved by the bell. She got absolutely hooked and went psycho and violent, so since I take all my life lessons from crappy early 90s tv shows, I say put down the bottle punani! It's not worth it, life is too precious!! ;)
