And there’s always Adderall for those of us that can’t stand coffee
Drug addiction is only negative if it causes you problems in life, and I’d say that coffee doesn’t really cause me problems in life.
I get anxiety issues from Coffee and tend to feel completely exhausted at the end of days. I try to ditch it and mostly replace it with Jasmine Tea, Oolong or Yerba Mate
I get problems sleeping, plus I get dehydrated as well, on top of the things you mentioned
Dehydrated with a liquid that is made of 99% water? I’ve been told a long time ago that this is a myth, but frankly, I don’t know.
Caffeine makes you pee a lot
Are you suggesting that alcohol doesn’t dehydrate you either? For me the dehydration effect is pretty obvious at least
I like Yerba Mate, but I dare not drink it that much on account of the absolutely massive caffeine content it has (granted you drink it bombilla-style).
Unless you have anxiety
True. I can’t drink unlimited quantities of coffee without having negative effects, as such I limit myself to two cups a day, one in the morning and one after lunch.
I would love to drink one cup of coffee a day but any amount of coffee will amplify my anxiety. I drink once I’m cured
Sorry to hear that. Hope your condition improves, anxiety is a really nasty thing to deal with.
Sometimes I wonder if in 75 years people will look back on our caffeine use in this generation like we currently look back at cocaine use in products in the 19th century. Until then, I continue to slurp down coffee like that is my actual job.
What is this, a meme for Mormons?
I wish I didn’t have such a dependence on coffee. I’m about to go on a trip and am brining instant coffee with me to the airport in case the shops are closed during my early flight and I’m not able to get coffee until after checking in which is like an hour and a half from the airport.
As a side note, I’m in a third world country and going to an island. They will totally have coffee there, but i might not have access until later in the day.
Same issue but with sleep time 😱
