    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.

    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.

      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!

      Interesting. Never heard of this before. What specifically is it supposed to help with? The energy boost or the anxiety?
