why don't you think of it as a drug?Originally Posted by emochild123
well, im not quite sure. i grew up with it, and yeah its addicting. Because when i hear the word "drug/s" i think of like (pot/cigs./meth...ect.) i would have never thought of caffine being a "drug"and it doesnt feel like it would be. :unsure:Originally Posted by xsecx
yeah, but if you apply that same logic to everything else, would it apply?Originally Posted by emochild123
eh. i guess if you thought of it like that in place of the caffine yeah. but isnt the caffine in some things natural?...i wouldnt do any of the other drugs so i would know.Originally Posted by xsecx
sure, but nicotine and thc are natural in tobacco and marijuana. cocaine is natural in coca leaves. why wouldn't you do any of the other drugs, but you would do caffeine?Originally Posted by emochild123
so my expresso is not okay. ? and neither is soda.? heh. yeah i never thought of caffine being, a drug.i dont kno why it just never really crossed my mind. word.Originally Posted by xsecx
is it? If you're against drug use, why would you use a drug recreationally?Originally Posted by emochild123
if you wanna call yourself straightedge, you've got to actually be straightedge. no caffiene, no drammamine, no cough syrup, nothing. if i can eat psilocybin mushrooms in small quantities and still act responsibly, am i still straightedge? the only thing that seperates caffiene from illegal stimulants is that it has negative effects at high doses.
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already but you should also be aware that caffeine is classified as a drug by the FDA, the Olympic Commitee (above a certain amount it actually becomes a banned drug in olympic events), and most nutritional research.Originally Posted by emochild123
Just because you don't consider something a drug doesn't alter the fact that it is a drug.

ok your saying caffine is a drug ok but that means if you eat choclate or drink chocalet milk your taking in caffine so your saying to be edge you have to give up chocalet too and pop from time to time no in my opinion moderation in caffine is ok btw if that makes me not straight edge so be it
you should read the thread before commenting.Originally Posted by thechris
Actually most chocolate hasthe smae amount of caffeine as "caffeine-free" tea and coffee. In other words it is not enough to cause any kind of stimulating effect.
And saying that caffeine in moderation makes you not edge. It's like me saying that a dab or two of cocaine or speed is ok once in a while. If I did that I wouldn't be edge.
