monster ||| energy XXL (710ml) :( 8(

come up: 20 mins
plateau: bout an hour
come down: still comming

repor--

damn im tired, still got homework, looking for a leg brace (see my acid trip report), and oh whats this? hmm looks like it will wake me up... 3 bucks ok fine.
ten munets later half done
twenty minutes later last drops down the hatch.

twenty minutes after that- peperoni pizza (lunch hours before ingestion) + 200mg panax ginseng, 1g of taurine, 2.5 grams of (l camitine, glucose, caffeine, guarana, inositol, glucoronolactone, and maltodextin) dont fucking mix too good. (theres alot of other shit in there too)

headache and stomach ache soon folow. shit why did i do that. i feel like im comming down off of cocaine real bad. for so long too. :( ignvs not happy. shaky feeling all over, must work this out of my system, damn i wish i could just puke already.
i feel DRUGGED. i supose i am. fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck.

ate some bread, slowed it down, not by much. felt it instantly though.
here it comes again ughh.

finaly something comes up! mmmm red and acidy. doncha love it?
this brings a tad bit of releif but not much.

slowly the effect wears off my mind and just feels like a small coke comedown.

how do they sell this shit? why is this legal? overall what the fuck?

worst expereince ever. anyone have similar feelings?
 
monster tastes the worst of all energy drinks in my opinion. but i have consumed Rockstar (much better energy drink) in faster time than 20 minutes and not had the side effects you mention.
 
i'm not a big fan of energy drinks. for christmas a few years ago i received a 30 case of monster and when i was done with it i started having caffeine withdrawals. haven't had one since lol.
 
Why y'all knocking Monster? I think it tastes just fine, I mean it a'int Citrus X Rip-it or Full Throttle, but its not bad. By the way, I think regular Rockstar tastes pretty crappy, but the red and blue ones are pretty good.
 
it tasted great i love energy drinks taste... thats half the reason i drank it. but damn the effects from that perticular one kickd my assss.

i havnt done any drugs expet tylenol since my acid trip tho.. might have something to do with it.
 
I remember the long ago days of chugging Monster staying up late making movies and doing schoolwork.

NOS is the only drink that has come close to kicking my ass.
 
those 5 hours energy shots are much safer to use as a energizer. Fucking caffine is discusting!!

The above would be where your problem stems from.

Next time you are feeling tired try taking exercise and eating well and leave stimulating shit alone.

And sleep.

Sleep is king.
 
Nothing cones close to BSN Endorush, it's instant, clean, and has a pretty good rush.
Come down is'nt too bad either.
 
Monster is the only energy drink I can stand (taste-wise). All of the rest taste like shit. And only the green kind. Actually I happen to think it's really good.
 
Ya, Monster's pretty good, but IMO, the best energy drink will always be the original energy drink, coffee.
 
that sounds like a pretty intense reaction to a can of soda
except one time i tried this drink called Cocaine it was intense
 
i dont get why ppl are bashing this trip report...all psychoactives are interesting to read/learn about IMO.

lol EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL DRUGS!

but seriously, a lot of those substances are a lot harder than the general public gives them credit. ive talked to more people who have said "i am/was addicted to caffeine" than people who have said "i am/was addicted to weed." plus, with a lot of these drinks the comedown can feel alot like a coke/speed comedown. do not tread lightly
 
^ *nods*

The dirtiest comedown I've ever had was from caffeine. I don't have much of a tolerance for it, not being a coffee drinker, and had a few too many no doz tablets several years ago. The morning after was worse than any meth comedown I've had. Jittery, sweating, nauseous, unable to sleep and just generally horrid.

The perceived safety of energy drinks and the like is a concern. A guy in Australia recently had his heart stop after drinking an excessive amount of redbull. I'm certainly not saying that one drink will cause an issue, but it's a drug, just like any other, and the discussion of its effects is worthy.
 
Yea, well I submitted a 'trip' report to Erowid on coffee(and a not-so-drawn out but detailed account of how I almost died because of caffeine), on the same day I submitted two others and it never got published, while the others did.
 
Energy drinks are way worse for you than taking LSD or shrooms. Seriously, they are almost toxic, in that the by-products of digestion are simply killing your liver.

If you drank two 12oz "energy" drinks a day, you are doing more harm to your liver than drinking a 6 pack of beer a day. To flush a single 120z energy drink chemical residue from your body, you have to drink on the order of 12-15 GALLONS of water!!!

When you see physical/endurance athletes (like motocross racers, runners, etc.) on the podium drinking from an energy drink sponsor....it's WATER in there, real athletes won't touch that crap with a 10 foot pole.

Save yourself some grief, drink water, tea, milk, or something better than a crap for you energy drink.


And to the OP, you are right, it's a bitch, a nasty one, don't drink that shit.
