Looking for a good stimulant

[Hyperreal]

I'm looking for a drug that I can use for extra energy on a daily basis. The effects should be the usual stimulant stuff:mostly energy and motivation. Basically I'm looking for an alternative to caffeine, because caffeine just doesn't float my boat and is probably not the healthiest thing to be doing the whole time.


I've tried ginseng and found it too subtle; next on my list is gingko and then yohimbe.

[PenguinPhreak]

Yohimbe will be very effective, but I doubt it would be healthier than
caffeine. In fact, caffeine is probably your safest choice for daily
use. Ephedrine would probably be a pretty effective alternative. Also
various nootropics such as adrafinil are suposed to be great for
jitter-free stimulation.

Me personaly,I would not try ephedrine. Yes it does give you alot of enery but it is also very dangerous. Before it was banned here in the states i used it too lose weight and it work very well, On the full stackI lost 12 pounds in a week. However it does more harm the help. Read up on it before you chose to use it. http://www.ephedrine-news.com/html/effects.html

Ephedrine works well from personal experience and friends experience.

It does have risks, but everything has risks,not just this. Edited by: thegod1

Yep, you echoed my own thoughts. Ephedrine is something I looked into on this quest but figured it was too dangerous. I've taken it before (as herbal ecstasy) and liked it but it's not something you'd want to do every day.

Ephedrine is used by over 12 million americans, and the fda has ruled that only 5 have died from its use.

Uhmm yeah maybe you should do a little more research before you post something as a fact. I'm not saying it can't be used safely but why risk the chance when other safer options are available.

If you live in a place were this is no problem, coca a good and healthy option.


Gingko on the other hand isn't that much of a stimulant.


Raw ginger does have a little boost to itEdited by: benga

I usuaally use and recommend GINKO BILOBA.
I take it dayly to achieve a mild stimulant effect, since I work ona a creative and enduring field (traditional 2danimation) and most of the days I found myself still working at 3.00 am.


compound: ginko biloba extracts
dosage: 3-4 40mg pills
onset: @20 min
duration: @5 hours
side effects: ginko increases bloodflow so males experience quite better hard-ons


I have been searching up and down for years, using everithing arround and only2 things that would compare to cofee without containing caffeine are ginko and coca leaves.


Chewing coca leaves is the best stimulant (botanical) I ever had. I can`t wait for this summer to go North and buy me 1/2 kilos of coca leaves. They last me about 2 months and then I go back to ginko, since tehre´s no coca leaves in my nowdays location. ***ANYWAY COCA LEAVES ARE LEGAL WHERE I LIVE****

Adderall, one such medications used to treat Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder became so fashionable that Rolling Stone listed it as this year's "Hot Drug" in its latest issue, as part of its Hot List 2005 feature:<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urnchemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />


"Its as a bunch of pharmaceutical companies got together took out all the shitty effects of bathtub speed left the good feelings and putitin an easy-to-swallow time release capsule"

psychedelic stimulatory effects from it that last for two days.

if you're in europe at least i doubt that you would get in trouble for ordering a box of 100 teabags...the cocaine content is minimal, almost impossible to extract. in the usa laws are probably less forgiving, but getting busted for a box of mate de coca...nah


check out the ENACO website if you want to buy matefrom the peruvian government directly . La coca no es droga !


in some cities you can find in south american shops too

Hyperreal: Be very careful playing with yohimbine. It is a MAOI &lt;monoamine oxidase inhibitor&gt; which can react with certain foods and medications to make your blood pressure crash through the floorboards, or fly through the skylight. Read: Trip to hospital - or worse. Look into MAOI's before you engage with this stuff. Done with care, Bongo thinks it's okay-ish. Likely you'd use it a few times, then let mold grow in it in the back of a cupboard.

[Hyperreal]

There seems to be some confusion as to whether or not yohimbine is a MAOi. Nutriflip says that yohimbine is not a MAOi, but the plant yohimbe is, which I suppose means that other alkaloids present in the plant have MAOi properties. On erowid, this andthis claim yohimbe is not a MAOi, the latter with an Erowid note saying it is a mild MAOi. Murple on Ask Erowid claims that " yohimbe is a very weak MAOi". None of the sources I've looked through mention whether we're talking MAO-A or MAO-B.


It seems that it's one of these very mild MAOis - like St. John's Wort or chocolate - that needn't affect one's diet.[/b]Edited by: Hyperreal

[Nagognog2]

I have personally witnessed someone have an extremely toxic reaction from yohimbe bark and alcohol. Complete with plummeting blood pressure and collapse. Be careful.

Try drinking yerba mate. Do it every day for a couple of weeks at
least before you dismiss it. You'll find it gives you sustained
energy after a while.



For an extra kick when you need it, use dry ephedra herb mixed with the
yerba mate, making a tea from both of them together. Use in a
ratio of about 2/3 yerba mate to 1/3 ephedra sticks. Grind
ephedra sticks to a coarse powder with a coffee grinder before adding
it to the yerba mate.



And the ultimate in natural pick-me-ups is "Tri-Mate" tea. This
is where you mix yerba mate, ephedra herb sticks, and coca leaf tea
bags all together.



Another good one, all on it's own, is the relatively new supplement
"chockamine". Get some of that and put it in gel caps and take
it. Provides energy as well as a positive mood lift and
anti-depressant qualities.



Any of the above can be used on a daily basis safely for extended periods of time. That's what you were asking for, no?



Since I can't get to the sources forum to post my favorite places to
obtain these items, PM me for a list of good places to obtain these
supplemenmts from.

Caffine pills. do research about some herbs or plants, i don't really know but if you search i am sure you will find what your looking for.


Most idea's off my head already been mentioned.


considering u don't want caffine, um maybe adderal or ritalin or dex, (you know it's prescribed for add-adhd) it shouldn't be to difficult to obtain.


Edited by: bonghed

what happens if you mis adderall and ephedrine?

[kfisty]

honestly, health food store mate...
not the normal green tea pills, tho they will work,
there's this vitamin by "pure essence labs" some combo of herbs.. no ephedra, or guarana or things of that nature.

He/she doesn't want to use caffine too much because of health issues so i don't think speed is exactly what he's looking for. I'd say try script drugs, rit dex, or the herbal method, after a little advice and info (well lots) it's trial and error until u find what your looking for, but you will find it,if you haven't already

Friend brought some guarana powder from brazil couple of months ago and it was drank with vodka(with aprox. 1 full tablespoon of guarana).
In my opinion it was very stimulating since I didn't expect anything from it. I was drunk a little bit before drinking that guarana/vodka mix but about after 15-20 minutes later it gave very nice "waking up" feeling..very energizing.
