Ideal....
if the problem isn't the caffeine. I find conflicting data on this, but recommendations are to stay away from all caffeinated bevs, so I'm thinking caffeine has something to do with it.
NO-Doz is I believe 100mg caffeine per pill. I ate a whole pack of it one night in college,, on top of several 20-oz coffees. I was falling asleep still, but walking like a stick figure, in stiff, jerky movements.
I was glad when that wore off. Not a posittive chemical enhancement.
Then I have the problem of, do they have caffeine pills here. I have to ask at the pharmacy but I am too embarrassed.
Next time I go out I'll see if I can find a pharmacy I never have to go to again... where I can ask.

There might be some good brands.

Yes. I don't know if the folks will go for that. I hope not to have to go there myself.

Now I get it. You have explained this before but because I do not drink coffee I remember the point and then am reminded.
For a good drug, you need to get one of those guys to 'script you some Adderall or Ritalin, or the new (too expensive for me) Vyvanse.

Hmmm, we best not get into my idea of a good drug, lol.
As far as the psycch drugs, no respectable doc will rx them on an "
as needed for sleep deprivation" basis.
Let's just hope I can tolerate a couple cups of coffee. And the sleep deprivation... well... cross that bridge when I come to it. Might just have to choke down a lot of antacids and indulge on the coffee!
