Your experience Drinking of Energy Drinks? - Click HERE for Original Thread

Shabdi
Please Post, How you feel after drinking large sums of energy drinks?

Example after taking more than the recommend dosage.


I personally keep a bottle or 2 bottles of 5star in my car just in case I feel tired before driving and it typically is a good pick me up.

Or when working without sleeping for a few days I will buy a few as pick me up throught the day.

- I sometimes feel my heart beats a little strange, and I get very wired.

Personally, I get a nice buzz off WWE Raw and Bawls. If I drink Rockstar or Red Bull, I crash pretty hard a few hours later.

Anything Guarana based I usually do pretty well with a few hours later.

I like to chase them with a cup of coffee. That keeps me pretty wired at work after a long night. But after when I get tired, it hits me 10fold and I just want to nap for 3/4th's of the day.

Shabdi
good stuff, I am trying a new thing tonight

1- monster normal
1- monster kaos
1- no Fear
1- 5star
1- rock star

I am half done and feel quite jittery for a smoke by the globe, the shacking some one must have mistaken me for a crack head :D

I have tried quite a few different kinds and they all fuck me up. Having your heart racing while you're sitting still or sleeping (trying to at least) is not a good thing.

Rich_A
they don't effect me.

I black out. Then when I come to, there's usually dead bodies lying around me.








I actually usually just get the shakes.

Shabdi
I feel pretty horrible 34 hours no sleep, I dont even feel tired yet sigh.

the diet rockstar seems to do it for me... sugar does bad things to me, so i fI get the diet rockstar, I get the taurine without the sugar.

it takes about 2 hours for it to start working, then i can do anything for the next 4. chase it with a coffee and i got the best of both worlds: quick energy, and long lasting energy. I get less bitchy at work when I have a rockstar coursing in my veins too.

Red Bull is awesome for long drives, boring seminars, annoying houseguests that talk about nothing for hours on end...

Same Red Bull keeps me going on long work hours. I'm not talking about the canned ones that you find in your local 7 eleven its the actual red bull in the small brown bottle in china town.

Oh you mean the one that tastes like Cough Medicine. I had a few of those for long shifts at work back in the day, and they would give me the biggest energy buzz for about 45min and then I would have to go crash in the back room haha.

Strange I guess each to his own. I've always had that and knew about that back when i was in thailand. The ones in the can just tastes wierd and doesn't cut it.

Since I have only had about 3 cups of coffee my entire life and don't drink that much coke or pepsi the caffienne in those drinks is crazy for me I like the sobe rush ! drink one before a hectic day of painting valves and I am good till about lunch. My hands get crazy shaky and I talk out my ass and annoy the hell out of any one in my area! it causes me to yell in a british accent "Your Mothaa " to anyone walking by. When I paint valves hung on the crane at work its like I am in the matrix as I paint 360 degrees around the valve! everything is all in slow mo and I can see every detail about the painting. I also talk to everyone in a polish/ german accent saying stuff like " Aha thats true" " its so simple really" "two chops" "its done already" , in any variation like "aha thats true , its done already. or " Its done already , two chops" even "Aha (polish), (yelling in british) YOUR MOTHA .

its nuts. but hey I get my work done and fast too. also alot of people in my shop get hit with random objects when I drink that stuff. they also get laughed at, the middle finger, dirty looks, Mocked , their nipples grabbed, asses slapped, parts they may be handling moved farther away from them, airlines disconnected, fork lifts missing one fork! (yeah I have walked away with 1 fork!) staplers painted, and so on.

Lucky for most of my coworkers though, I onlyl drink em once or twice a week! any other time I just leisurely work and I only do some of the above!

I have one in the fridge right now for tonight! Uppers and Downers! energy drink/ Molson Canadian!

I was up for almost 2 days straight once, working two late shifts and trying to get my car ready for a 2000km road trip. day 2 I was really starting to crash so I drank 3 cans each of red bull and sobe arush. Ugh.. well I'm never going to do that again. heart kept racing, felt really messed up. made it through the whole shift though, went home and crashed for 13 hours straight, woke back up and drove to Kelowna :thumbup:

After that I realized that excessive caffeine consumption = bad, so I try to avoid drinking those things now.

Orzel_pl
Tokyo Drift is the only energy substance I need :D

I drank around 30 in two days when I drove back from Toronto. They work but you're still tired and they fuck with your head. I also had agonizing cramps and one hell of a head-ache when I got back.

Energy drinks don't affect me at all. Neither does coffee.

englishjohn
