Ok, I need to know of something that keeps me awake pretty well. I tend to fall asleep in school, which is bad, so I need to know of a drink or something that helps stay awake... Right now I've been relying on Mountain Dew for quite some time, But it just isnt doing it for me anymore, I can drink 4 cans of that, then fall asleep. Coffee I can't stand, so Coffee is out of the question. What alternatives are there to stay awake? Ive been considering Jolt... maybe that might work...

All kinds of energy drinks keep me wired for several hours at a time. But if I'm looking to be up and laughable for...I dunno... days...I'll kick back a few Jager Bombs. Nothing like Red Bull and alkeyholl to brighten your day.  -SAV

...and? 
I'm not condoning anything though. I'm underage. I'm just saying what I do. I mentioned energy drinks as well. I had a point in time where I used them religiously, but I had to cut it back because it was starting to affect my blood/glucose level.

I'd recommend that you get off caffine. I used to have the same problem staying awake, would drink all sorts of energy drinks to keep me up... but nothing worked. I am up right now @ 2am working hard on a paper, drinking cranberry juice. I did the caffine withdraw thing over spring break. Just stopped drinking anything with it, had a horrible headache for 2 strait days. It was worth it! I try to eat healthier now, less sugar and the like, and now that I am off of it, just the littlest bit will keep me awake. In short, get off caffine for like 2-3 weeks and just try to get more sleep. Then after your body is free of it, you can go back to it in small quantities to keep you up  (back to paper now, damn CEG distractions  )

I am a Mountain Dewaholic and it does nothing for me anymore. One that does seem to work it Redbull. There are other brands out there that are similar you just need to find one that actually taste decent.

Ephedra worked well for me, too bad they banned it!

yeah, stuff thats going to help you out to stay awake. Getting enough sleep, cutting out the pop, eating right and work out schedule. Had the same problem, did all 4 things and got my energy back.
Over 200,000 miles and dead......kinda. Time to get a new ride.

You're in high school? Why do you want to stay awake in class? Just go to sleep while you can. You'll look back when you're in college and think of those wonderful days when you could sleep in class and still pass. ... Ok, that worked for me in high school. I guess not everyone can do it.
Crystal Meth is pretty good at keeping ya up. It's not too hard to make if you wanna know how.
