I have a slight suspicion that every time I consume something with caffeine it has a specific effect on me.

A good cup of black or green tea: Slight headaches at some times.
A cup of coffee (from work coffee machine): Depending on strenght slight attention issues or headaches.
A cup of coffee from a coffee shop which roasts its own coffee: One time a bit of stronger attention issues than the work coffee.

I usually notice it right away after consuming.
But I also have a very strong issue with staying hydrated.
Usually drink 0.5-1l per day until I notice the usual dehydrated-headache or when I am really focused and loosing it at times.
Usually it’s less prevelant at evening/night times.

    Caffeine at any dose gives me anxiety and restlessness. At too high of a dose (which is basically equivalent to a large cup of coffee at home or a normal Starbucks coffee) I get heart palpitations and panic spirals.

    I haven’t intentionally had caffeine in five years.

    Sodapopcokedrink caffeine seems to make me either sleepy or jittery. I’m pretty sure it’s sometimes both <.< Which is super weird.

    Of course, it’s not a useful sleepy. It’s a “nap for a couple hours sometime in the next couple hours, no you are not getting any actual rest from it” kind of sleepy. Gr.

    Caffeine from other stuff probably does this too but I don’t pay enough attention to my body or life or anything to really be able to say much 😅
