Proplus and alcohol?

Does mixing proplus and alcohol make you feel more drunk (or however you'd say it :p:

) than having just alcohol? I'm asking because earlier my boyfriend and me were out and we only had 6 cans each, but we had some proplus too and people in Boots were asking if we'd been drinking. :p:

Just wondering really, thanks :smile:

um, well having six cans will probably make you look as if you have been drinking.
some kids in year 9/10 take proplus with the tiny bit of alcohol they have because they think it makes them feel drunk/high, but uhhh idk maybe it's just caffeine buzz.

i assume proplus is somesort of caffeine thing. What happens is that the caffeine counter-acts the drowzy affects of the alcohol and makes you hyper and drunk. thats why vodka and redbull is good

can people use the anon just for the sake of it? i thought it was for when people had really personal or embarrassing problems they didn't want other users or people finding out about.
whatever.

I'm sure I've read somewhere that it's extremely dangerous - If not life threatening - To mix proplus (or any caffiene-base) with alcohol.

I always wondered why I felt like a dead man after drinking Vodka and Red Bull, but that got to be it! :eek:

Meh, coffee and rum is the drink of kings. It shouldn't do you any damage, I often drink straight after taking pro-plus and similar.

Caffeine and energy drinks/stimulants mask the effects of alcohol, making you feel less drunk than you are, which sounds good but can be quite a dangerous thing.

Also.... only 6 cans? Hmm....

I have a friend who used to go on Pro-Plus binges, eventually it would get to the point where he would eat about 40-50 tablets a day. However, towards the end of one of these binges he decided to drink some alcohol, from what I was told he only drank about half a can but shortly after passed out and woke up in a ditch...

I think he tried this a few more times actually, obviously reduces the amounts of both so he wouldn't pass out again but I remember him saying it did produce very wierd effects...Of course though, taking that many Pro-Plus is pretty dangerous.

Mixing stimulants with depressants is potentially dangerous. simple.

drinking in public aged 16 is illegal

that how people can think like this.. it's called fact.

There's nothing wrong with me

Umm... no it's not....

There are some rare examples where the local authority have put in place no drinking zones under the antisocial behaviour act 2003; these are few and far between however, and not specific to juveniles.

I wish it was, things would be much simpler.
