Nothing like being exhausted and jittery at the same time
fun fact: the brain can build tolerance for caffeine very fast(days to weeks) to the point that basically all regular caffeine consumers have to have their regular dose of caffeine often at specific time of day just to be just as awake as they would be if they didnt have any caffeine. so caffeine only really helps if you take more than your normal daily dose irregularly(~every 3ish days at most on average)
I cut back from daily energy drinks to daily morning coffee and my effective energy doubled. Then I cut back from daily morning coffee to once a week or less single serving caffeinated drink, and my energy effectively doubled again. It definitely does more harm than good used regularly.
My ADHD brain when I give it caffeine: Let’s see how I should react to it this time flips coin
Oh look, an overpowering urge to lie down and sleep in the middle of the work day, just what I drink coffee for! (Not)
Drink me!
Why?
So I can save you.
From what?
From what I’m going to do to you if you don’t drink me.
I used to love coffee, but then I started having fast heartbeat and anxiety and nausea so I had to stop drinking coffee. 🥲
No, you’ll be tired but faster at it.
Brain: give me sleep
You: best I can do is a drink with a stimulant legal drug
I just realized the other week I can just buy caffeine pills and skip making coffee.
I never liked coffee and only really wanted the caffeine so it’s a win win!
Way cheaper too!
Society: don’t do drugs
Also society: here, have some caffeine
Society:
This stimulant bad. This stimulant good!
Cocaine vs Caffeine.

I don’t drink coffee (nor eneregy drinks), and seeing these posts, I probably shouldn’t start.
