Coffee is far better than Red Bull. Within 5 mins of drinking red bull, you fall asleep. Coffee also can prevent heart attacks...and cause heart attacks haha.

Hhahahaha in amaerica we have kids popping Ritalin like candy for performances enhancement, and here we aussies are debating the ethicality of centrum and fishoil. haha these arnt really drugs, rather they are supplements. And yes you should be taking things like vitamin E, omega 3, centrum and the like. They are beneficial to your health
There are people at uni who take ritalin/dexies/other ADHD drugs to help concentrate when studying.

yeah i agree, vitamin c and all that are not drugs at all. i laughed a little when i opened this thread thinking they were actually about drugs. and humph- i would have thought ritalin and such are more common among year 12 students then uni kids? it's becoming more common, i know quite a few people who have atleast tried it.

I read in a newspaper (forgot which one) that drinking coffee and tea regularly can help prevent diabetes.
Except my grandpa used to be an avid drinker of coffee but he was recently diagnosed with diabetes.

No idea, though it's definitely a lot easier to get drugs at uni than in high school, in my (not personal!) experience.

oh eek, then that's a bit worrying then, considering any drug is possible to be bought during high school very easily.

Energy Drinks are shit. Stay away from them. They pump more money into their respective graphics departments than they do improving the actual product.

Can these drugs such as 'Ritalin' be bought over the counter?

By the way, I'm no druggie or anythin  ;) but I wanna test out different aspects to maximize efficiency in my education before year 12, so i got a tried and tested plan.
