I want to go off of energy drinks for my caffeine / buzz needs (cheaper than an adderall script :winky:) and I've heard that caffeine pills alone can give me the shits.
There's supposed to be something called 'ripped fuel' but it got reformulated and sucks, but there's something else that's almost as good. I can't remember any of this crap.
I just want a buzz/aggression feeling like I get from Monster and german industrial, in pill form, probably available from GNC.
Halp.

OK while I do not support any sort of substance abuse for "studying or energy" purposes.
Pseudo-ephedrine (sudafed) 12hr NOT SUDAFED PE this shit is behind the counter, Caffeine pills, or pure Ephedrine HCL (vasopro) will buzz the fuck out of you and make you feel like superman. keep in mind it is as close to amphetamines you can legally buy, and if you aren't using it correctly can take a big toll on your heart and temporary nervous system

How do I use it correctly?

directions on the box of course. I was using it to help me cut off weight before I bodybuilding competition, but do what the box says. and don't have it less then 12-8 hours before bed it will mess you up
Coffee makes my mouth taste bad, my urine smell like coffee, my tastebuds grow longer, (when I drank coffee, I literally shaved my tongue. It's only scary the first time and it kinda cuts down on the length of the 'hair' forest of tastebuds so food gunk doesn't get trapped there.) and I get a jittery rush from it that energy drinks don't give me. Some of them just make me feel peppy, while Monster's formulation (and maybe my body chemistry's reaction to it) gives me something like a miniature Incredible Hulk trip.

Also, this might open a can of worms, but one of these is a pretty good pick me up. Definitely not good for you though. Not as bad as smoking it, but not good for you.
I'm a nurse and I'm telling you to leave the Sudafed and cough syrups well alone - if I have to tell you why, then you have rocks for brains.
Caffeine in moderation is fine for you, but it seems that if you are requiring so much of it that you can't afford the energy drinks it requires to "get a buzz" from it, I don't think we should be advocating ways for you to do this, because it is not safe.
Caffeine in excess can cause tachycardia (increase in heart rate) which in the long term can result in long term heart damage, it can cause nervousness, agitation, sleep disturbances and long term issues with your kidneys as it is a diuretic. Basically, it is possible to overdose on the stuff and give yourself a cardiac arrest. As somebody that has worked in the ER and seen this first hand, perhaps you need to cut back and go for a run to get your buzz?
Nope. Google Image search "hairy tongue" for some . Mine is not as bad as some of the more horrific ones before shaving, but enough that I finally said to myself, "Hey, Tostitos, you could take a bic to that.
I'll make a video of shaving my tongue as proof, if you guys give me money. I'm such a whore.

I had a five dollar a day energy drink habit at one point and I had never been so productive in my life. I quit because of the cost and all the sugar I was mainlining into my body. My body likes lots of caffeine. It is my friend.
You could always buy powdered caffeine and mix it into some other drink. It's dirt cheap. It's the leftover when they make decaffinated coffee.
Better still is to chop a couple lines. Not a longterm solution, but it works.
I have a chemistry major friend. He's done lines of freebased caffeine. I don't know why in the hell anyone would need to freebase caffeine but he did it for the hell of it. It's hell on the sinuses apparently and doesn't give much of a rush. Now, taking a pinch of pure caffeine powder and swallowing it gives you a brief narcotic-like high, or so I hear.

I take it and it does give me energy in the morning and thats the only time you should take it. Works great and doesn't feel like other caffeine pills.

Sure it is. You're not an addict right, that's those other guys who can't get through life without stimulants.

Penguin Mints and chocolate covered espresso beans are also all kinds of awesome.

I have never heard of this and it sounds horrific.
@gamefacts - Totally and utterly true gaming facts on the regular!
Glad I wasn't the only one. I'm calling shenanigans though.

Okay. Step 1 is to stop enabling your problem.
