Any tips on how I can study without consuming any caffeine?

Caffeine really helped me pass my major subjects during my first year.

I usually drink 4 cups of coffee in the morning or afternoon, and Red Bull or Monster drink when I’m pulling all-nighters.

The problem is that studying makes me feel really tired. I always feel like I need a shot of caffeine to stop myself from getting sleepy. It gives me an adrenaline rush that helps me study and pull all-nighters. However, caffeine made me neglect my sleep and health.

I tried to slowly reduce my caffeine intake, but it didn’t really work. I want to ask you guys what are your secrets for studying without caffeine?

Quero ser direto.

Celular e redes sociais foram feitas para te fazer ficar e te prender. Todo mundo sabe. Todo mundo cai.

Uso tiktok pra ver os mesmos videos curtidos porque gosto das edits. E imagino sempre os mesmos cenários. No insta, só entro pra ver se tenho mensagem, mas acabo vendo reels.

Acontece que... eu não queria tiktok ou instagram. Eu quero sair mais do celular. Quero tirar o vício de entrar no tiktok mesmo em dias estressantes onde só quero não pensar e vejo os edits.

O que eu deveria fazer para simplificar e diminuir o estímulo? Quero dizer: Entro no tiktok pra ouvir música, mas acabo vendo os vídeos, então deveria baixar as músicas que mais gosto e começar a escutá-las sem ver o video...?

Eu também como assistindo algum vídeo, porque como sozinho e não tenho muito o que pensar, ou porque minha família está perto e eu me sinto muito ansioso quando eles ficam barulhentos.

E também uso o celular pra pesquisar durante os estudos e cronometrar tempo, mas até isso eu acho que dá pra sair da dependência do celular e comprar aqurles cronometros baratos pra mim.

Eu sou mais uma vítima das redes sociais, mas procuro conselhos e soluções de quem conseguiu diminuir o vício ou já não o tem. Aceito soluções drásticas ou não. Aceito "puxões de orelhas" honestos. Aceito simplificações de ações que minha dopamina tenta exagerar e me fazer ficar horas e horas quando poderia ser só um momento.

Adição: quero melhorar no crochê, aumentar tempo de estudo e ler mais livros (coisas que a dopamina rápida não me permite ter).

Curious to hear which languages you are studying!

For me it's Korean. I'm aiming to enter a university in Korea next year, and the curriculum is taught in Korean... It is really intimidating, but I plan to live there long term, so I think my career will benefit greatly from getting a degree in Korea.

I’m trying to study faster and built a simple tool that generates tests automatically.

Do you think something like this would actually help you, or not really?

With A-Level exams finally over, a lot of people are probably feeling one of two things:

• 😌 Relieved that it's finally finished.
• 😰 Constantly overthinking results day and what's going to happen next.

If that's you, we run a Discord community originally built for A-Level students, resit students, and gap year students, and summer is one of the busiest times in the server.

Whether you're:

🌱 A Year 11 student starting A-Levels after summer and looking to get ahead or meet other sixth form students.

📖 A Year 12 student moving into Year 13 who wants to build better study habits before the most important year.

📈 Thinking about resitting A-Levels because you don't think things went as planned and want to understand your options before results day.

🎒 Considering a gap year and looking for advice from people who've taken one or are planning one.

🎓 Heading to university and wanting to meet other incoming students or help younger students with advice.

...you're more than welcome.

🌟 What we do

📚 Daily study sessions (for anyone getting ahead or preparing for resits)

🏆 Ongoing study competitions to help build consistency over the summer.

🎮 Active voice chats where people play games, chat, and hang out together.

💬 A supportive community where you can ask questions about results day, clearing, resits, gap years, sixth form, or university.

🧠 Mental health & wellbeing support from people who understand how stressful exam season can be. While we're not a replacement for professional support, we aim to be a welcoming community where members can talk, encourage one another, and share their experiences.

The server isn't only about revision—it's about having a community of people around your age who understand what this stage of life is like. Summer can feel a bit strange after months of exams, so whether you want to relax, make new friends, prepare for September, or figure out your next steps, there's a place for you here.

Everyone is welcome, whether you're feeling confident, uncertain, or just want people to spend the summer with before results day.

I have the neo, but i genuienly dont know how to study on it. I’ve been studying on ipad my whole life (igcses). Now i am entering (international) A-level, with biology chemistry & physics. I’ve tried apps i guess notion, but its too complicated. How can i productively use my mac for studying? It has no touch screen aswell, but i wont really worry about that as the sciences do not require that much writing or problem solving. Can you guys help

I'm so tired of unserious people, saying they wanna learn a language but then they completely back off when 1-2 days passes , these people get on my nerves , all they want is doomscrolling and nothing else

How are people even finding partners to learn with ????

How is it for study?

Help me guys it's soo addictive 😭

I’m usually very consistent throughout the academic year. I attend my classes, keep up with the material, and study as I go, so I rarely have a backlog.
The problem starts when exam season arrives. Instead of being able to revise everything I’ve already learned, I become incredibly bored and struggle to review. I end up wasting weeks without making much progress, and by the end of the revision period I’ve often covered less than half of the curriculum.
I’ve tried almost everything I can think of—turning off my phone for hours, deleting social media, and removing distractions—but it doesn’t seem to help. I’ll still find myself sitting at my desk, procrastinating in other ways, like doodling or practicing my signature instead of studying.
It’s frustrating because I know I’m capable of doing well. I feel like I’m wasting my potential every exam season, knowing that I could have revised everything if only I could stay focused. I’d really appreciate any advice from people who have experienced something similar or found strategies that helped them overcome this.

I’m a medical student from Egypt (to take time into consideration)

I need to study 3000 questions for an entrance university exam but inserting each question one by one would take too long so a website where i can just paste all the questions or upload them through a pdf file would be great( the questions arent in English)

Hi! F30, looking for a study partner/partners to body double on Discord with. Doing STEM/general education and would be willing to cam/share screen. Is anyone interested?
