fast does lie:
Is the use of this similar to fool's gold when trying to achieve  PR's?  Seems like if you can't achieve the same thing without it, than it is not a true PR.

CNS is CNS. You can amp it mentally or physically. Caffeine is some kind of PED indeed. If you wanna count it or not, it is up to you.
I would go with if the stimulant is legal ( https://www.wada-ama.org/en/what-we-do/prohibited-list ) then PR counts.

vag:
Yes, because CNS adapts to stimulants. So better not take them everyday, save them for special days ( PR attempts etc ).
Or else you will need to take higher quantities for them to work , then CNS will adapt to that too etc etc.

gukl:
i can't get out of bed without caffeine anymore. my whole life is fool's gold.

vag:
Yeah, me too. It feels like it is not the the need to wake up anymore, it is pure substance addiction, i get withdrawal symptoms if i don't drink coffee, like headaches, bad temper etc.
