my friend takes Nodoz to stay awake?!


Question: My friend takes Nodoz to stay awake?
A girl who I am friends with is doing something very dangerous. We are freshman in college and she is very involved. She is on the executive board for 8 clubs and taking 4 classes. She stayed up for 3 days straight on caffeine and our guy friend and I finally had to force her to go to bed. I forced her into her pajamas and then he came in and we had to make her lay down before she fell asleep. We don't know what else to do ! please help

Answers:

Believe it or not, caffine can become addicting. Like a drug, because it technically IS a drug. It's a stimulant, and is like any other energy drink or caffinated drink. It also works just like a drug. You drink some, and then suddenly that's not enough to give you the hyper-ness anymore (your body just gets used to it after a while) so you have to drink more, and more, and more. See how similar it is to drugs? You can't stop after a while, you're body actually NEEDS it, DEPENDS on it. I think you need to look into getting some help for you friend? Maybe the school guidance conceiler would help? Or maybe tell her parents/someone who she and you both trust to help?

Good luck!!!
