This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Absolute nonsense

No, science. ~~(first result) \https://www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/does-caffeine-actually-give-us-energy~~

The other one, sounds like caffeine effect on ADHD.

Why not just ask Gemini directly?

Let's also consult Wikipedia:

Stimulants (also known as central nervous system stimulants, or psychostimulants, or colloquially as uppers) are a class of psychoactive drugs that increase alertness. They are used for various purposes, such as enhancing attention, motivation, cognition, mood, and physical performance. Some stimulants occur naturally, while others are exclusively synthetic. Common stimulants include caffeine, nicotine, cocaine (including crack cocaine), amphetamine/methamphetamine, methylphenidate, and modafinil. Most stimulants are highly addictive and damage health when addicted.

You must be like twenty years old to not know that stimulants give one an excess of energy that is later abruptly taken away.

Thanks for your speculation as to what the nature of this effect might be, but I don't need it. Unless you totally abstain from coffee, tea and fizzy drinks, you have no idea what caffeine is like after not consuming it.

Especially, seeing as another guy here speculates that taking a nap after drinking coffee is a caffeine effect on ADHD, perhaps you two might want to speculate against each other as to whose speculation is more correct, speculatively speaking.

  1. Yes, i have. And do you really think, you're the first and only, geting off coffee?
  2. coffeine is known to have the whole fucking range of effects on neurodiverse, from worsening their symptoms over having no effect at all to making them sleepy. This includes getting a lot of ADHD antsy, jittery.

from worsening their symptoms over having no effect at all to making them sleepy.

Thanks for admitting that your guesswork doesn't amount to jackshit since it contradicts itself.

With the info, that a "Syndrom" means a range of causes, displaying similiar effects you can roughly group together.

Now calm down.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Well then thank you for pulling the word 'syndrome' out of nowhere, since it figured nowhere in this conversation before. But you also say it means "displaying similiar effects", so you mean that "worsening their symptoms over having no effect at all to making them sleepy" and "getting a lot of ADHD antsy, jittery" are "similar effects"?
