When I have trouble sleeping, I have no problem with tiredness throughout my day at all, really. It happened the day I was modded, I was running on 4-5 hours of sleep and it felt like I had 10 hours of sleep.

Nathan March 5th, 2014 4:22 PM

I only have troubles sleeping when I take coke(the drink) otherwise I don't really have problems to fall asleep. But waking up... ;;

Tsutarja March 5th, 2014 4:37 PM

Caffeine is ineffective on me. I can have as many glasses of Coca Cola that I want to have, and I can still fall asleep in 30 minutes or less.

Taemin March 5th, 2014 4:44 PM

I usually drink one or two sodas a day, and they don't keep me up. I think my body is used to that amount. xD; If I drank an energy drink I would be screwed, though.

Tsutarja March 5th, 2014 4:46 PM

I've never had an energy drink before, and I'm not sure if I would want to try one either, tbh @[email protected] my father drinks energy drinks, though..

Raine March 5th, 2014 5:00 PM

The only time I've had an energy drink was mixing it with alcohol OTL Kind of betting on the taste being gross...

Caffeine still has an effect on your body.

There was an energy/alcoholic drink called Four Locos that was banned in Florida I believe. It had really harmful effects.

Anyways, I have one when I work a long shift during my break, but I really just like the flavor of the Yellow Monster, so that's why I get it. I don't think it actually helps, I just feel like it would.

The only reason why I've heard of that is because of EpicMealTime XD The alcohol/energy drink mix I had was a Jagerbomb.

How bad does it mess you up? I've never had one.

Shining Raichu March 5th, 2014 5:14 PM

I'd be more worried about the taste than the effects - Jäger is disgusting

Yeah. The taste is more devastating than the effects D: But to be honest, in comparison to all the other alcoholic drinks I've had, Jager actually isn't that bad...

Shining Raichu March 5th, 2014 5:22 PM

Drink vodka with an energy drink, you can barely taste it when it's mixed with something lol

I'm sure it does, but helping me stay awake is certainly not one of them.

Somniac March 5th, 2014 5:57 PM

Straight whiskey or get out.

Rums nice too though.

Ciders great too.

Schnapps are nice too.

Hiatus March 5th, 2014 6:33 PM

I consume caffeine in morning, most of the time. It does help me stay awake, but only for an hour at most. :( Wish the effect would last longer.

Tsutarja March 5th, 2014 6:38 PM

Caffeine drinks are something I consume sparingly. I used to drink soda fairly often when I was younger, but not so much anymore. Same with coffee as well.

My grandfather let my mother have a taste of his moonshine when she was in adolescence. She never drank it again. :P

We're all sure you don't snort cocaine, Genesis. :P

I've always thought energy drinks tasted quirky.

I think the last time I lost sleep over PC was when I was anticipating Tier 6 supportership last Christmas.

and oh my god I just remembered I'm a Tier 6. wow o_o

You have made me a very sad man.

Taemin March 5th, 2014 7:56 PM

Can't say I've ever had Jäger.

I'm not a big drinker, and when I do it's usually just beer, or a drink whose name is probably censored here. It's mix is Butterscotch Schnapps and Irish Cream.

Alexander Nicholi March 5th, 2014 7:58 PM

Alcohol is like football to you guys :<

Today I had the enjoyment of having an explosive nervous breakdown in the bathroom during ROTC. Long story short, Echo's first sergeant decided to stab me in the back because the Colonel reprimanded her over instigating me and baiting me with demerits. Because of that, I not only have since lost my oppurtunity for E-6, but E-5 as well because the Sergeant-Major doesn't believe I'm "worthy" of a promotion. In the event I pulled my shirt apart button by button and pulled myself on top of the wall of the bathroom with my muscle-less spaghetti arms, and about broke the handicap bar. Oddly, it relieved so much pressure, and I feel so much better.

I just wonder where all that anger came from. :<

Sir Codin March 5th, 2014 9:04 PM

You're telling me.

I've been feeling depressed lately as well. Problem is, I'm not sure why. I just simply feel angry and miserable. I've had thoughts of overdosing several times and I've skipped chemistry class twice in a row (enough that the professor emailed me and asked me if I was alright). I'm utterly bored at my job and I constantly feel like a worthless piece of trash and that no matter what I do, I won't amount to anything. I'm having trouble falling asleep, having trouble waking up, and I feel lethargic throughout most of the day and yet I feel tense and angry. I don't know the reason why I'm angry, it just seems to feel like it's a natural state.

Taemin March 5th, 2014 11:14 PM

Sounds like something that maybe you should talk to a therapist about it. There's not always an answer for depression like that, it's just a chemical imbalance past a certain point. Or there are causes that you're unaware of, but not always. :/

Omicron March 6th, 2014 12:10 AM

I agree with Drew, you should talk with someone about it. I used to feel the same way as you do now. I was diagnosed with major depression and started medical treatment. It is a slow process but it is really worth it. I hadn't felt this great in a loooooong time. Depression can be caused by Serotonin imbalances and have no apparent reason. Although, most of the time, if the depression has to do with a serotonin imbalance, other external factors are mixed in. That was my case and I can tell you seeking help is the best decision I've ever made.

Shhmew March 6th, 2014 1:23 AM

Oh noes, more sad people. ]:

I've been having less-than-pleasant thoughts too. But I'm just in a deep hole in my life, really. Once I get out I think I'll be just fine. ^__^ At least, this is what I keep telling myself. Not everyone can simply up and be "just fine" one day; seeking help is best, just be really really careful when it comes to things like medication. My mom and some others I know have become dependent on it which isn't fun to watch...

And goodness... more alcohol talk ;P I've never drank before and I'm kind of scared to. The idea of losing control of myself isn't a pleasant thought. I believe I may have already said that though. But I just don't have much else to say on the matter due to lack of experience.
