Zen Peddler Posted May 18, 2014 Did a weird experiment yesterday and today - yesterday I overdosed on coffee to see how my perception of time was effected and then measured that against my perception of time after drinking valarian tea only today. the difference was interesting. Time seems much slower when relaxed 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dale Posted May 18, 2014 (edited) Interesting I remember reading something about psychosis caused by extremely high doses of caffeine. Although I'm not sure if this is a common effect or not. From Wikipedia: At high doses, typically greater than 300 mg, caffeine can both cause and worsen anxiety or, rarely, trigger mania or psychosis.

Micromegas Posted May 18, 2014 Interesting experiment. How much coffee do you need to "overdose"? I agree coffee can speed up time; paradoxically it can also make that time more productive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C_T Posted May 18, 2014 when i drink ALOT of caffeine on night shift, time goes WAAAAAY faster. not only get alot of shit done, it feels less than 1/2 the time has passed. i only do that once a blue moon tho, when im extremely tired and irritated, not good for you.
