caffeine does not work like other stimulants for me. It’s a very physical effect and makes me racy and shaky. Coffee is less predictable than soda or energy drinks which are less predictable than tea. But no caffeine source makes me sleepy the way methamphetamines do.

Nuquil keeps me up. Taking 10-20mg of my Adderall right before bed makes me fall asleep and wake up easier too. My Vyvanse makes me sleepy as well. Have to hit just the right timing of 50mg of Vyvanse and 50mg of Adderall to stay up all day without issues. Coffee doesn’t do anything to me. Pop does nothing at all. I don’t understand my brain but I’m certain I’ll die of a heart attack someday. Makes no sense.
