This is what I felt like the first time I had coffee. I was 19 yo and got a "Day job" at "college", trying to sell newspapers door to door. Me and a friend met the boss guy at a Waffle House and I had two cups... I was off like a rocket. I had NO idea... that stuff was like worse that drugs. I didn't drink coffee anymore for decades. About 10 or 15 years ago I got started, now it has no effect. I drink two travel mugs every morning and sometimes have a Monster Coffee/Energy drink in the early afternoon. It just really doesn't do much to me anymore. If they had ADD (ADHD) when I was a kid, I would have been the poster child. I have lost the "H" part and am now just ADD. Do you know what they prescribe for adult ADHD?? Desoxyn... no kidding! It might not play nice with my heart but heck, you never know! Caffeine is god stuff but it takes a lot. I'll order some Death Wish and report back. J

There's been a load of stories in the newspapers of late about how good coffee is for you....as long as you don't drink too much. I think 2-3 cups a day is the sweet spot.

I started drinking coffee in college - I needed a routine of some kind to help me out of bed and I made myself addicted to coffee to that end.
For the following 20-some years, I drank coffee from the moment I woke up to the moment I went to bed. Pots and pots and pots.
Then, last year, I realized I didn't finish half my cup most of the time, so I decreased my intake quite radically - two cups in the morning, max. Tea the rest of the day. Exceptionally, I'd sometimes have a cup after dinner.
Immediately, my energy level became a lot more even throughout the day. No more crashing at random intervals...
As of one month ago (a month tomorrow, actually), I finally lost all taste for coffee. One morning I didn't even finish that first cup. The next morning, I made breakfast and then had tea. It used to be that I couldn't possibly exist before that first sip of coffee, much less eat or function...
It wasn't a decision - I just lost my taste for coffee. Tea is just much "fresher". And my energy levels are even better than they were.

I like coffee. On cold, dreary, rainy or snowy days I can drink an entire pot though that might only happen once or twice a year. Most of the cooler days are just one full mug and, during the hot days, I can go for days without it.

I should add that all those years, on top of all the coffee, I also drank lots of cola, and smoke 2 packs a day. Not surprisingly, I spent about half my life convinced that I was about to have a heart attack. The combination most have been as lethal as 1/2 energy drink...

I bet you'll have a "welcome back to coffee" moment at some point. I drank it thoughtlessly for years until one day, like you, deciding I was sick of it and then I drank nothing but tea for a good 3 or 4 years. Recently I had a really nice cup of coffee and thought wow, this stuff tastes great. And of course the caffeine buzz is a novelty after being off it for so long. I find that as long as I stick to 2 or 3 cups a day the caffeine still continues to have the desired effect. Mind you, matcha tea is a great way to get caffeine as well. Not quite as strong as coffee but it's a more sustained hit with less of a crash. Plus you get all of those antioxidants.

Hi,
You guys need a trip to Brazil, or Colombia!
Music is not about notes and chords! My poem is not about the computer or monitor or letters! It's about how I was able to translate it from my insides!

No, we prefer to keep our heads attached to the rest of our bodies (despite what others may think they look like).

For decades I have waked up and started drinking coffee, not stopping till I have successfully loaded my random access memory. I've cut back a little recently, but not that much.
