    Pro tip: only drink caffeine when you need it. You won’t develop a tolerance, and the positive effects will be enhanced.

          I used to smash a monster recovery on the drive to work, pick up a large iced coffee from McDonald’s on the way in, finish that by lunch, and drink my second monster recovery after.

          I stopped all that cold turkey back in 2020 and now rarely have a morning cup of coffee that I never finish.

          It’s wild looking back on that, so much stress and caffeine. I’ll never go back to it though, and I don’t miss it one bit.

      it astounds me how i can chug 400 mg of caffeine and feel N O T H I N G

      like why the fuck is this not the primary way to diagnose adhd? have people take 3 caffeine pills and if they completely forget about having done so within 5 minutes then congratulations here’s your adderall prescription!

    Try different types of coffee, even different regions or growing conditions.

    Among arabica clutivars, Ethiopian beans seem to sit the best with me, Brazilian makes me anxious AF.

    I suspect altitude might be the correlation – Colombian, Kenyan, PNG also seem to sit well; Indian, Australian, Mexican also make me anxious.

    Brewing methods can give different feels, too. Espresso vs filter vs cold drip.

    I suggest getting long Covid, now I need an espresso in the evening just to function while I get the kids to bed and read to them and I barely even feel it.

        Weirdly I can, I used to be so sensitive to coffee that anything past early afternoon was guaranteed trouble. Now I can do it at 6 or 7 and still collapse at a normal time.

    Love it when I drank it and it either gave me paralizing anxiety or made me sleepy(the ability to properly rest was out the question though)
