After reading a ton of stuff on it again (I did a stack cycle about 7 years ago) decided to try it again. Doing two 50mg stacks with cups of coffee twice a day (7am and noon). I feel alot more jittery than I remember, is that just getting older or? (23). I don't think I really did that much compared to what I did 7 or so years ago. Or maybe it was always this jittery and I never noticed. Makes studying a bitch.

I did it on and off in my 20's on cuts, but I can't do it anymore (@35). It gives me crazy anxiety and causes my BP to skyrocket.

I find it helps my workouts (energy wise in regarding too how long I can go before fatigue sets in), as well as appetite suppresant. I don't seem to get nearly as hungry on it. As well, my fatigure during the day is almost non-existance, keeping me moving, studying ect ect.

Similar. Last time I tried something similar my heart was palpating and I was like uh maybe not a great idea.

I had the exact opposite experience. I took 25mg/200mg ephedrine/caffeine three times every day for a couple months and felt absolutely nothing.

You never felt anything ever? :Q Crazy. Before I began having a severe adverse reaction, the Ephedra/Caffeine stack I was taking (similar to yours) literally made me feel like I'd just done coke.

I did it on and off for a few months before I had my very first anxiety attack. Extremely unpleasant to say the least. Fake heart-attack ftl. :(

I had great success with my cut since food grossed me out while on the EC stack, so I'm a little envious of you guys that can take this stuff and not freak out.

I did this once, but I ended up not eating enough and getting sick from that, so I never got back on it. It really did work though, but I think I just went overboard.

It's sad that at your young age you feel the need to use a stimulant like ephedrine to get through your day and workouts.

As I said, I just find it easier :p

I think from the answers though it might have always been this jittery. Going to cut back to a 50mg 7am, 25mg noon dose and see if that helps. :)
