- I've actually used a fair amount of Ephedrine in the past (as a sleep
- replacement) and it seems to me now that it almost MAKES me tired.. It still
- increases my heart rate and makes my hair tingle and all, but it really makes
- me feel like I should be asleep, even if I'm not particularly tired. Too bad,
- since it used to work really well, I thought.. I'm not entirely sure if this is
- just my own built-up tolerance or what, but I like coffee much better these
- days..
-
- So, I guess what I'm saying is this: it's really amazing for a while to keep
- you awake, but if you're always using it to stay awake, the feeling induces
- tiredness eventually, I think.
