I tried this stuff for the first time today and it was like eating fire. My mouth hurt.

I would never touch it again. I was curious if I was the only one. I know people like it.

.......so I've been told. something about mixing red bull which keeps you amped and hard liquor is not good huh? I wonder why that is too? I mean, I know liquor is not healthy but why is it SO much worse when you add red bull?

I didn't really like the taste, so now I just chug it. I drink it whenever I have it and don't have much energy, but need energy.

Someone else voted for "mouth hurts". I'm not completely alone.

I assume my body doesn't like one of the ingredients.

I drink tons of coffee, I don't think it's the caffeine.

I'm doing a dunken lagfest on party 2/4 bad beat if you want to come steal my money.

There are plenty of people who dislike Red Bull in general, but are all about it when it's mixed with booze, for what it's worth.

its simply mixing uppers w/ downers. Alcohol is a downer, red bull is a stimulant (a rather pwerful one at that). Its like taking nyquil and speed, but not as extreme. bad for the nervous system.

redbull is my favorite nonalcoholic beverage (taste wise). i can only drink one or maybe two without alcohol though because i get serious jitters and anxiety.

with alcohol i'll drink 6 or 7 though if i'm going to be at a club for > 6 hours.

6 or 7 mixed w/ 6 or 7 drinks is a lot. I would assume this is when it becomes a more tangible danger to your health.

tolerance is a beautiful thing. plus, if i'm drinking them over the course of a night, each drink is metabolized before i have another (or pretty close to it). i never have more than ~3 in an hour cause it fucks me up. plus i always make sure to drink plenty of water, but not to the point of water toxicity.

but if you're out of shape, aren't used to caffeine and other stimulants, and go overboard, AND ignore your body, RB+Vodka can eff you up.

thoguh u may not feel bad, im sure this has a bad effect on your body, possibbly long term. I have a fairly high tollerance for alcohol, but it still pwns my liver when i get drunk.

Water toxicity? i swear you have to drink insane amounts of water for that to happen.

Tell that all those people who take E and overdose on water. When people die from E it's either heat stroke or water OD.

And I thought we were talking about instant problems. Obviously all that alcohol and caffeine has long term effects, but I don't think combining the two has any more long term effects than drinking them separately. Short term is where the real danger is and where you have to be careful.

that is not true. actually most E related deaths are from heat exaustion and dehydration .

as for short term effects of red bull and alcohol, i would think cardiac arrest is a realistic risk for unhealthy people or people w/ heart conditions.

I know I'm not supposed to talk poker, but oh my word.

I already doubled my stack! 44.8 PT BB/hr. Grab me another beer /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I just raised Q3 off out of position (if there is an in-position) and won with a river straight. Everyone is going to call me for a while.

Then I raised 66 and hit my set against 5 callers.

So basically the second one said that you can drink as much water as you want to when you're not one Ecstasy because you'll be able to piss it out... But not while you're on E because it releases some chemical that stops your kidneys from realizing they're full?

I'm an old hippie and whatnot but I know one thing for sure.

Stay away from E man.

And that special K crap.

Smoke some P.O.T. and drink a hit of wild turkey 101. If you need more than that you're in trouble.

Hehe. Just hit a flush. These guys hate me. One guy reloaded twice already he's so irritated. Just won w/ Q3 again Im playing it all night for a raise lol.

"Drinking too much water is reported to have killed 3 people so far, all in the past year, presumably because 'harm prevention' advice has concentrated on drinking plenty of water. "

after viewing multiple sites, water intoxication was mentioned as reason for death of extacy users, however they all seem to say that dehydration and car accidents are the main causes of death along w/ heat exhastion.

i have yet to find any solid statistics, but i am still looking.

on a side note, i was viewing a site that had multiple polls about extacy and some other info. It had a "reliablity of sources" chart, and at the very bottom, the least reliable source of information, was the police. damn pigs!!! lol

yeah it's not the main reason... but a possibility, was all i was saying.

and yes, i agree, FUCK THE PO-LICE!

on another side note, i found that taking prozac before or shortly after taking extacy makes the drug less abusive to the brain. It does not lessen the effect either. This is according to studies done in animals.

I would really like to encourage you guys not to do that crap. And special K, bad news. Don't eat pills. Really don't mix pills with booze.

Smoke some P.O.T., have a drink, you're all good.

OMG I got the Q3 again on the BB. Raise btch! Whoops had 2 fold that 1.

i don't know, i had a friend who tried it once and she was asking the people she was with why it wasn't doing anything cause they were all [censored] out of their heads. she told them she was on an MAOI (prozac) I believe.

Now, I've had people that I know who do it tell me that if they take a prozac the next day it helps with the post E depression. But I don't really know.

Prozac turns people into zombies. I'm not so sure you should use it even if a doctor tells you to.

Go natural people all these pills are really bad for you.

Some kid asked for advice a couple of weeks ago about staying up all night. I think if he followed the advice he would be in a coma.

Redbull is my new favorite dring to mix with booze. Beit yeager (miss-spelt?) Vodka, or Jack (thanks stheif), it seems to be a body good.

while you are partially right, you are clearly a HUGE hippie, and therefore you should not be taken seriously.

glad to see this thread is still about redbull....i think it's good. If I having a "down" day (not depressed, just tired and having trouble focusing) this stuff gets my mind right (I drink maybe 1 a month).

as for Jagermeister....I hate that crap but it's good in redbull....so is vodka but be careful, not only are they not good for you, they make you not realize how drunk you really are.

Best description of the taste of Red Bull - A female friend of mine tried one for the first time and remarked" Ugh! now I've got to go suck a dick just to get that taste out of my mouth"

Take Prozac AFTER you come down from E. It has something to do with the Prozac replenishing your brain's E-depleted seretonin (and thus helping the post E depression). I have never tried this, but it supposedly works. I have not heard of any increased health risks doing this.

Also, if you don't like the ideas of taking Prozac, a supplement called 5-HTP taken after your E comedown significantly helps with depression and helps you sleep(try about 150mg post E and the take 50 or 100 at night for the next few days). IMO this should be a staple for all E users. You can get this at most health food stores(look under "sleep aids")
