Yes, cool and normal, like I said. Don't worry, you're not a slave to it. You're the one in control. And elaborate Rube Goldberg devices to absolutely minimise the amount of time you spend not under the influence is exactly what you want.

I’m extremely sensitive to caffeine (I get a headache from a decaf if it’s too large a serving) so the whole coffee obsession is weird to me. The best thing to make me feel awake is time

the thing about coffee is it makes you more awake for maybe like 2 weeks and then the whole rest of your life you drink it to not feel more sleepy than normal

Huh? What?


caffeine has an inverse effect on me (i have literally passed out drinking potent energy drinks before when I was still a teenager) so I don't drink coffee a lot unless its, like. an iced coffee from caribou or whatever. i dont get the obsession either.

When in doubt, err on the side of Awesome!

You know how addicts say that they can quit at any time?

Yeah I can't. Caffeine is what keeps my head from spontaneously caving in. I'm sure it's killing me but I don't care.

oh it's not two weeks it was like two months but once I was clear I felt so much better than I did before. get rid of the crutch

current project is getting off sugar for the most part. switching from sugary drinks to like, polar sparkling seltzer etc. trying out different flavors and I like the cranberry-lime, pineapple-pomelo and blueberry-lemon so far. anything apple-flavored just tastes wrong though alongside the flavor of seltzer water, unfortunately, which sucks because I like apple flavored stuff. if the bitterness of the seltzer water was just slightly less I'd have zero problem switching over immediately.

Coffee tastes really good and then as a bonus you can also put lots of crap in it to make it taste really good but in a different way

Same, I drink coffee because I like the taste, black or not.

I'm even a weirdo that likes the taste of energy drinks. Caffeine is strictly a bonus to me, or even a hindrance since I can't drink them at night. (Yes decaff exists, but decaff energy drinks don't)

Yeah I gave up after 2 weeks.

I was planning to try again but there's at least a month left on the current covid lockdown and this isn't the time to get rid of crutches.

I'm just resigned to dying at 32 so I'm not giving up on soda.

Anyway, I've only just now found out about this, did you already know it happened?



Is this what not having a twitter account is like? Am I just way behind on finding out about this? I'm not mad that they made it it just seems like something that shouldn't have slipped right by quietly. Maybe the He-Man drama overshadowed it.

"Western" coffee culture is fascinating to me. In my corner of the woods we drink coffee since we're children because it is delicious, not because it keeps you awake, energizes you or whatever. If you dislike the flavor of coffee then that's fine too but it's not like people who dislike it are going to be drinking it for a silly caffeine hit Like, caffeine? It's such a weak drug that even children get some with their cookies.

I cannot stand coffee or beer purely based on the way they taste. So I guess I am cursed or blessed depending on how you look at it.

yeah. it's not universal, not everyone with adhd gets tired from coffee, but i don't know of any other conditions that cause insensitivity or a paradoxical effect to stimulants like that. caffeine conks me out near immediately and i'm waiting on an assessment. ask the adhd thread in e/n and you'll get plenty of people saying the same thing.

yeah, I'm like... mostly sure I have ADHD and caffeine is a weird experience. if I'm not tired at all, or if I have an absolute rear end load of the stuff it can perk me up, but if I have a dark pop in the afternoon it's lights out
