"Pro Plus"
I never knew such a product existed and now i fear that i may be dying.
today ive had erm 8 of the little buggers and i feel like absolute crap. my heart is beating irregularly and i can feel my body slowing right down. even tho my mind is still 'wide awake'
WHAT HAVE I DONE ?!?!?
altho it did help me wrie 900 words ish in the space of 15minutes with no books to help me. I remembered everything id read in the library 2 hours previously !!

As Pro Plus don't seem to work on me at all in standard doses, I've never been inclined to OD on them.
If you die, can I have your modding hat?

What's Pro Plus? Is it a caffeine pill or something?

I know a few people who pretty muc live on things like that. Or Red Bull, or Jolt Cola. Either way, they are quite interesting to talk to, it never gets boring.

I've never drunk coffee in my life, don't even know what it tastes like. For that reason my head would probably explode if I took Pro Plus.

You'll soon become immune to the effects of Pro Plus, I used it to get through the first few months of a very boring, tiring job. These days though I can much a whole packet and still be tired as ****.

the best way to enhance the effects of caffiene is drink a load of grapefruit juice beforehand. personally I never tough the stuff, caffiene that is. by eating and drinking wekk, I only need 5 hours of sleep a night... heh.

we have these caffiene pills called yellowjackets.
it says on the case:
"DO NOT TAKE MORE THAN 2 PILLS IN A 24 HOUR PERIOD UNDER RISK OF DEATH"
I quote.
My friend Eric took 3 once. His heart palpitated (beat irregulary) and was hard to feel. he did stay up for 35 hours easily though.

All this "caffine boost" stuff is overrated. Many lab tests have shown Pro Plus to be partly (and a great part) psychological, when compared with a placebo.
Just take some speed or E.

Bollocks. No company would ever advertise the fact that their product can easily be used to kill. What they actually mean is "under very, very, very specific circumstances, there's a slim chance that taking 3 tabs in 24 hours could make you ill, and aggravate another condtion, which theoretically could kill you"

i have taken 12 of those things at once and they had no effect :/
There again, i am the only person i know who red bull has absolutly no effect on either, i mean literally, i can drink it and then go straight to sleep, its great for annoying my friends who will still be awake when i wake back up in the morning, refreshed, whereas they just cannot function the next day

okay, fair do then. please be careful though, comments like those attract the wrong people. in a similar fashion to mentioning dope or bongs.

If you've actually got something specific to do, staying awake is not a problem. Unless you're weak.

My ex ex girlfriend OD'd on pro plus.
She was cram revising one night and took several Pro plus in the space of a few hours. On top of this she drank several cups of very strong black coffee.
This was a person who never drank tea, coffee, and maybe a little coke, so was otherwise not used to caffeine.
Anyway, she got ill. Really fked up up not so bad as life threatening, mostly a panic attack I think. She felt bad but the funny thing was (for me and my lodger anyway) was that she was so hyper, she couldnt stop telling us she was ill almost constantly!
We pi55ed ourselves and I think the paramedics probably did too after the event.
Silly b|tch

Now, this attitude is starting to bother me. You, mister ' STRONG', I'd like to see YOU stay awake for 35 hours studying. After that, given 8 hours sleep, I'd question you about the last things you studied about in the 35-hour run.
I doubt you'd remember too much, mister ' STRONG'.
