From what I've read about Ritalin, doesn't have the affect of increasing awareness but also decreasing one's ability to think creatively? I think all stimulants have the effect of limiting some of our brains' capacity to process information logically. If you don't have a chemical imbalance in your brain, there are mind exercises you can do to strengthen your ability to concentrate that might serve you better in the long run. Still, if you've empirically found that drug use helps you play better, run with it, I guess.

I'd say try concentrating without drugs but with all these drugheads around i don't think it is a good idea.
Your avatar would be a lot cooler on drugs. The sole purpose of existence for "drugheads" is to get high. Believe it or not, there's a lot of people who enjoy drugs on occasion, as a break from the everyday. Recreational vs. addiction. Don't be so quick to judge, it closes a lot of doors in general. If you wouldn't compare me doing a gram on a friday night with someone shooting heroin everyday I'd appreciate it.

I am surprised you took it so seriously and personal. I am not judging anyone. I don't have any problem with people who occasionally or regularly use drugs.However i think trying to concantrate without using drugs is a better approach. If anyone is trying to find an excuse to use drugs , i am still not judging it. Bon Appetit!***EDIT : Don't mess with Multipass!

Don't forget the gram for the strippers too.Cocaine's a hell of a drug.

I find it best not to mix business with pleasure on a serious note.If it's a fun game have a ball just don't over do it !!!!!You don't want to be wasted walking into a fight unless you expect to get your #ss kicked.

smoke weed everyday is definitely nate dogg,anything harder than green tea screws up my game. Unless I mix in some flexeralls. Aderol makes me a zombie too. Red bull + flexerall is great for a long casino session, or a long stretch of days in a casino.Green tea is great for online or a normal length session.
Wouldn't caffeine (a stimulant) and Flexeril (a muscle relaxant) cancel each other out ? What's the point ?

playing online or live for less than 8 hours, adderal doesn't do much. I mean, you concentrate more, and you might be fundamentally sounder, but you are less creative. It might help reduce FPS (fancy play syndrome).If you find yourself in a juicy game lasting 24 hours +, small doses of adderrall will help. If you have the small 5 mg pills, one every 2-3 hrs is money. But the 20 mg XR pill is the best because its time released.GL

My friends and I won't even think about doing a weekend session in AC without 3 grams of coke minimum, it's a must. We don't want to waste $400 on a hotel room or tons of $ on food and it's the only thing that can keep us up and not hungry. I don't recommend it but do what you gotta do...

What is Lortab?Hydrocodone is in a group of drugs called narcotic pain relievers. It is similar to codeine.Acetaminophen is a less potent pain reliever that increases the effects of hydrocodone.The combination of acetaminophen and hydrocodone is used to relieve moderate to severe pain.better known as VicodinPretty addictive stuff will also cause back aches as it builds in your system.Someone close to me got addicted, it got pretty bad for a while before she got professional help.

eh. i take lortabs sometimes before i go to the casino. it helps you take beats better and not get frustrated with boredom. but i don't notice i win more, i can just play longer.
Lortab is a Schedule II Analgesic/narcotic, goes by generic name Hydrocodone Hydrocloride and Acetaminophen. I don't think I'd recommend taking that before having to do anything that involved concentration.

Good analysis. The three brand names of this product are Lorcet + Lorcet Plus, Lortab, and Vicodin. It's the Number one selling combanation of drugs in the U.S. and yes it can be very habit forming. Since Hydrocodone is an opiod derivative it's going to have opiod like side effects (Morphine). So expect small pupils and Constipation among others

Lortab, Percocet, Oxycontin etc are all highly addictive and have opiate components which leads to the addiction. They are a spreading epidemic accross North America. I see people every day forging scripts, and basically desperate as hell willing to do anything to fill that need. My advice to anyone on this forum would be to avoid these drugs if you can, as well as Ritalin and Adderall unless you really need them.
