Feeling tired in the evening

How can I stop myself from feeling really tired at around 7-8 pm, after which I feel I cannot study or do anything?

Caffeine tablets work for me.

Sleep properly at night. Take fairly regular breaks, chill for a bit. Drink water. Don't break out caffeine and red bull until nearer exams when you're desperate.

I take a nap straight after school if I feel tired. I would wake up at 9 then just stay awake for most of the night.

I really wish it was. Caffeine doesn't have an effect on me, be it coffee, redbull or anything else :/

Ritalin (ADHD medication) will keep you up if you can get a prescription

I am very much the same and I will have a nap after I've eaten and set an alarm. After that I'll start homework/revision.

I think there were lots of different ones, but I bought Boots own brand because they're the cheapest - these http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Energy-Plus-48-Tablets-_127747/

Seriously? Ritalin is a prescription drug, it is literally an amphetamine made by a pharmaceutical company. You need to know the exact dosage to take and how many times to take it, its a mornoic idea because it has the potential to cause heart attacks and is also addictive. You be the judge....
