Looks like my colon if I drank all that coffee.

we should all do stimulants together

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

The Stimulant Council, whose combined knowledge and alacrity allows for rapid breakthroughs (within a certain time window, after which the breakthroughs drop off considerably)

Reminds me of the Ballmer Peak xkcd gag.

Slam some water, it helps me pretty quick when i od on the juice.

Some more anxiety tips:

-Be cold, can’t feel your shakes when your shivering

-Splash cold water on face, slap your vagus nerve in the face.

[-] BashfulBob@hexbear.net 2 points 1 day ago

Never.

Stop.

Pooping.

I feel that, I'm super easily overstimulated by caffeine and theobromine, it's so fucking evil

[-] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago

I cannot relate, I'm so utterly unaffected by caffeine. Though odd from what I know, does it really help with getting down to writing (in reasonable amounts)?

[-] MonsterRancher@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I'm the same. I've been doing ice coffees, but I think it's just the sugar energizing me.

Do you have ADHD? Stimulants don't work for people with ADHD

[-] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No. And that isn't a blanket case, it does affect some with ADHD, but does often work differently.

[-] Amir@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago

Yeah it's of course an oversimplification, but with a sample size of approximately 5 all of the people I know with ADHD told me that coffee/energy only calms them down

[-] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago

Hello! I have ADHD and I can confirm that it just makes my ADHD more intense.

[-] whogivesashit@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 1 day ago

I mean stimulants are what they give you to treat ADHD. Adderall, Vyvanse etc.

Many undiagnosed adhd people self medicate with smoking and coffee.

In my experience caffeine does help, but not as much. I find tea to be better than coffee.

Nicotine was honestly the most effective outside of controlled substances, but a nasty habit so I gave it up.

[-] deepfriedwater@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 1 day ago

Can confirm, I sometimes chug an energy drink to quiet my brain for a nap. I also don’t recommend anyone do this
