Caffeine: Difference between revisions
>TheBryGuy I added to the physical euphoria effect, that some people also report that coffee is more physically euphoric in the middle of the day rather than the morning. |
>TheBryGuy I added that coffee is also more euphoric in the afternoon than the morning. Not from tolerance but because your adenosine is built up and your physically tired and then that quick switch from tired to wakefulness can make me feel way better enhancing all the positive effects, and drinking in the morning causes more negative effects in my experience. |

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - Caffeine is reported to be mildly to moderately energetic and stimulating in a fashion that is considerably weaker in comparison to that of traditional recreational stimulants such as [[amphetamine]], [[MDMA]] or [[cocaine]]. This encourages physical activities such as performing chores and repetitive tasks which would otherwise be boring and strenuous physical activities. The particular style of stimulation which caffeine presents can be described as forced. This means that at higher dosages, it becomes difficult or impossible to keep still as jaw clenching, involuntarily bodily shakes and vibrations become present, resulting in extreme shaking of the entire body, unsteadiness of the hands, and a general lack of motor control. | *'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - Caffeine is reported to be mildly to moderately energetic and stimulating in a fashion that is considerably weaker in comparison to that of traditional recreational stimulants such as [[amphetamine]], [[MDMA]] or [[cocaine]].
