If you have an above average Intelligence, the mechanisms you develop can lead to excelling in many areas. But it comes at great costs and not everyone is this way. It also depends how bad you’ve got it.

Lucky you! I’m just getting started so I’m not allowed to drink caffeine as it would falsify the effects. The “manual” (Packungsbeilage in German) also says that caffeine can have an adverse effect, making you completely jittery and unable to concentrate. But every person is different and you lucked out I suppose.

I highly recommend getting back pain that’ll essentially whip you out of bed after 6 hours of shitty sleep. Works every time!

No, seriously though. Don’t get back pain.

Hope that’s decaf. Methylphenidate and caffeine really don’t mix well.

For me it’s not an obsession, it’s just the inability to choose something else. If someone decides for me, I’d even be glad to cook the dish.
