Personally I go to my local Agarthan ALDI and get picrel instead

>>77307313
They are delicious, the "first sip of the day" meme is unironically speaking something true

>>77307304
For me, it's:
>does nothing
>feel more tire than before
>8 hours later when trying to sleep I'm suddenly anxious and irritable

>>77307304
Same i chugged two in a row once and felt nothing and went to nap as usual. Im not even caffeine resistant, i drink coffee once or twice a year dont take preworkouts and the tea i drink is low caffeine yet it slaps me out of my sleep by making me active and once i sleep by making me want to piss

Sometimes it does nothing, sometimes makes me feel like shit. One time i slammed on while riding the back of a garbage truck and i actually thought i might have a heart attack and fall off into traffic.

They're too sharp. Good once in a while, but I can't slam 3 or 4 a day without my mouth feeling weird.
Also, pic related is the absolute GOAT, but has tragically been out of commission for over 5 years.

stop drinking that goyjuice

>>77307304
What you need is one of them old energy beers that had hella caffeine and other shit. Like a Sparks black or original 4loko or some shit like that. Slam a couple tallboys of those and you'll be ready for what comes.

>>77307304
You probably got adhd, caffeine does that to their brain phenotype cuz it's chronically under stimulated, so once it gets more stimulation, it starts to light up the region of the brain responsible for executive function, and it begins to fire signals that are normally surpressed or ignored due to lack of dopamine delegated to it. You're probably sleep deprived or get poor sleep.

>>77307746
Damn I hope not. I sleep plenty too. I mean granted it's 2am to 11 but still. I was thinking it wasn't adhd due to sugar monster still working but who knows. So what? I just stop drinking caffeine forever? Maybe I should get into esoteric stuff like theanine or something

>>77307804
You can keep taking caffeine, just be aware that it'll backfire if you had suboptimal sleep. Just knowing you have adhd is important cuz your motivation and willpower are tied to dopamine and your supply is naturally lower than normies so if you blow it on cellphone or vidya games, you'll spend the latter half of the day in a dopamine seeking mindset and once you start a stimulating activity, you might have a hard time stopping. Practice boredom to recharge, 5-10 minutes of staring at a wall will make your brain desperate enough to do anything else cuz boredom is your kryptonite, the adhd brain is like a drug addict. If you ever felt like you might be slightly retarded, you now know why.

>>77307316
You're supposed to drink them way ahead of time when you know you'll feel tired later, because your body will still be digesting it for a while. I drink them if I wake up after not getting enough sleep before doing something strenuous

>>77307304
>>77307316

You're low on some vitamins and minerals. Same shit happened to me after I stopped taking magnesium.

I prefer Ghost. It's not as harsh as others to where I have to water it down with ice. It just has that mouth feel that regular sodas just don't have.

>>77307890
Probably. I normally feel like passing out around 3 to 4ish. I normally eat at 2pm. I also wake up at 11am.

Interesting. I have some relatives with that so it's not crazy. Ah shit does that mean my prefrontal cortex is going to take even longer to develop? I did pretty well in college and keep a good workout schedule so it's gotta be light if I do have it. I also have mild hypermobility (My thumbs and legs can do weird bendy stuff) which I heard is corelated with that. Thanks for the tips

If you have ADHD then caffeine can (not always though) have a calming effect. if you fuckers are getting tired from it then it's worth checking out

>>77307883
Literally nothing you just said is true.

>>77308107
There is no proof of adhd besides damaged brains from taking amphetamines and saying
>look this brain damage must be from the adhd
It's the amphetamines.

You're getting cause and effect mixed up and I don't even know how that's possible

Some of the variants with apple, pineapple or mango taste great.
And whatever tastes like fanta tend to taste bad.

>>77309247
What a horrible take. You couldn't be more wrong.

>>77307304
I think at some point when you consume enough caffeine, your body just gets tired and tells the caffeine to shut the fuck up and goes to sleep.

>>77310764
>I think
Compelling

>>77310891
I know. There seems to be no scientific consensus on it. I also had the theory that perhaps those people who aren't affected by caffeine are on some sort of psychiatric medications. Seems wild that some people randomly have an inverted response to stimulants.

>>77310952

Feel free to explain the logic behind the phenomenon though doc, I'm all ears.

>I prefer Ghost.
Ghost and Reign IMO have the best flavors out there. I'm not a caffeine junky, though. So I only ever drink these things half a can at a time before and during my workout alongside water between sets. They make me jittery, but it absolutely helps me push through those last 4-5 sets of my workouts.

I do feel sorry for the people who need these things to function, though. One of the guys I used to work with was like 64 and drank a 4 pack of Redbulls per day. It literally killed him.

>>77308327

This is eye opening. I once read a hecking reddit AMA from a dad who was up at 5am with his son because he was adhd and could only concentrate early in the morning. Do you think there's something there, or is it a personal thing? Thread ain't dead yet.

>>77307877
neuroscience is such fucking bullshit holy shit. wish people would stop trying to justify everything with some objective scientific explanation when it's clearly wrong and grasped at. you only get this shit from reddit
>dopamine seeking mindset
just meditate for a moment, or anything to that effect. i have severe adhd but it's really not surprising that filling your mind with disruptions and distractions impedes your ability to focus. it's because you're still affected by the mental state the game puts you in. what no introspection does to a mf.

remember guys, mr Science told me Willpower is stored in the blood sugar

>>77314081
if i had to guess, force of habits regarding his headspace probably influenced it. to that extent it's personal; most people live by countless minor lifestyle habits they rarely if ever change. it's likely sleeping clears his head so he's obviously able to focus better now that he hasn't filled his mind with meaningless distractions to worry over

>>77308825
You're retarded.
Many people get diagnosed *because* caffeine has a calming effect on them. Do you really think ADHD people just spawn with adderall in their hands and take it from birth? Bitchass nigga.

>>77315376
I was diagnosed as well. But i can pay attention to books or movies or video games or 5 hour long history youtubes with intense concentration. Most people are diagnosed in school or at their office job. Humans are not supposed to be so sedentary. 8 hours behind a desk is not nstural

>>77315376
Yeah, like I said, you're getting cause and effect mixed up and I don't know how that's even possible after the first time I pointed it out.

>>77315424
Pretty sure he's agreeing with you that adhd is real lol

>>77315427
Pretty sure that it's absolutely clear that he's not. Read the post chain.

>>77315434
Well he's at least not the original person u were talking to. I know because that was me. Anyway, im done pooping :)

>>77307304
I tried one and it was a mistake because it tastes really good. Then tried other and the mango one was also great.
I bought them for some time but I stopped, too much caffeine.
Marketing for these is also great, good job marketers.

>>77314208
>it's really not surprising that filling your mind with disruptions and distractions impedes your ability to focus. it's because you're still affected by the mental state the game puts you in
To this point
>it's likely sleeping clears his head so he's obviously able to focus better now that he hasn't filled his mind with meaningless distractions to worry over
Maybe, or obviously, not filling your mind with noise could have a similar effect to sleeping, which is a forced break from the noise even for the most addicted scrollers. I guess it's not all that profound, but I at least defaulted to thinking I'm a big boy and can handle all these distractions, it surely won't affect me.

>>77314208

Nuanced and original take

>>77315452
You are supposed to sip it through out the day, not blast it in one go

>>77315701
Yeah, you're supposed to make a soda last for 12 hours.
Imagine thinking this is a believable statement.

>>77315671
>>77315390
Anyway
I was just talking shit but there have been several recent papers by tenured college professors discussing the correlation between brain damage in brains of people diagnosed with adhd and amphetamines. But the truth is we really do not know for sure if adhd is real or not. Maybe it is. Based on my experiences with my diagnosis and learning to focus i think it is at the very least wayyyyg over diagnosed.

One thing we do know for sure is amphetamine does cause brain damage.
Time will tell if adhd is real or not.

>>77315671
Oh and also there is absolutely a correlation between amphetamine and
alzheimers/dementia.

>>77316059
Maybe if adhd is real people who have adhd are more likely to develop dementia and the amphetamines are not causing it, but people with those symptoms are more likely to be on the adhd meds.

>>77316051
Real as in a hardware issue vs software?
As a syndrome itself it definitely is real, I used to work as a teaching assistant with special needs kids, even the best of us couldn't consistently wrangle these adhd kids onto a train of thought. The one who had it worst was transformed completely when he was finally prescribed meds.
I used to think nobody should be giving kids these drugs, but after seeing the effect they had on him I really did need to change my mind, because we were running out of time before he'd start the final years of high-school, and having him actually pass exams was a 0% probability before. It's a time-based necessity, like a defibrillator for a heart attack, it's not ideal to walk around with an implanted cardioversion device for your whole life, but if your heart stopped you definitely need it to survive. Passing high school won't save this kid's future and make him the new Steve Jobs, but bouncing off the walls with no diploma isn't cute at 35, and at that point playing catchup with teenagers is very demoralising at best.

Oh man, is that some fukkin sugar water? Fuck yeah, I'm such a good little goy for that sugar water hell to the fuck yeah I'm such a gentile, I'm such a wet little bitch for that sugar water.

This.
Rehab peach is the only monster i drink regularly.
too regularly :-(
>limit: 1 can per day

>>77307304
something weird I discovered is that nowadays, on days on which I don't drink any monster (rehab peach) [yeah I'm that guy from one post above] or any other of my go to drinks (coke zero, regular dr pepper)
it feels like time in the evenings is passing considerably slower

dunno why.

anybody else ever felt something similar?

I'm just joking. I'm an energy drink fiend but these threads are just viral marketing. Monster is industrial piss. There are so many better energy drinks on the market. Worse, they're the only company willing to shill their slop here for years and years and years despite the cost to the community of such behavior. Absolutely abhorrent business practice. Won't be surprised one bit when they find out that White Monster kills people.

I'm ashamed that I bumped this thread.
