i heard that taking an excess amount of caffein pills (like vivarin) would give you the same effects as doing speed, or is speed? is this true?
if so will it hurt you as much as doing speed would??
I’ve never tried speed but I have used massive amounts of caffeine to pull all nighters in college, and if that’s what speed is like I fail to see why it’s popular as a serious caffeine overdose high is about as nasty and unpleasant a buzz as you can imagine. You’re “awake” but you feel like a wolf ate you, and then crapped you over a cliff.
I can’t imagine that anyone would risk prison for “high” that shitty.
No. If you do this, expect tremors, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, racing heart, and feeling like you’re going to die. Trust me, I’ve done it, it’s not pleasant.
Also look here – scroll down to the sections starting with “Difficult experiences” and read what some people have experienced.
It is not the same. Lots of caffeine may get you through that long drive home but with speed you not only get through the drive but clean the garage too.
There is a euphoric element that makes it different from caffeine. Of course, it also makes it dangerously additive.
Inappropriate for GQ. Thread closed.
