It's like anything other legal stimulant. In small doses it's fine. In larger does it can cause lots of health related issues. People can build up a tolerance to caffeine and need more in order to get any kind of 'hit' from it.


Here is a list of stuff that can happen from drinking too much.

  • Jitters, Restlessness, and Nervousness
  • Increased heartbeat
  • Nausea
  • Anxiety
  • Heart palpitations (cardiac arrhythmia)
  • Insomnia
  • Sweating
  • Dizziness
  • Vomiting

+9

Caffeine is a powerful drug and should be used responsibly.

I didn't know caffeine was a drug and one of my girlfriends would come over and make me a large pitcher of Tea.  (I think she used a lot of teabags).  OMG it TASTED SO GOOOD!  I would drink the whole gallon in 1 day.  Then I would get really euphoric and become a supermegacoder.  Then my heart would start to beat irregularly.

> How do u know it was beating irregularly?

Because while sitting lazily in a completely relaxed way my heart was POUNDING away in my chest.  I could easily feel every heartbeat in my chest and in my fingers.  I could feel it doing this weird irregular jumping around thing.  Not good!

So after that I used caffeine only in small controlled doses.

Many years later I got to the point that I had to completely STOP using caffeine in any way.


Millions of ppl have restless leg syndrome which can be cured by avoiding caffeine.  But no doctor will tell you that.  They keep it secret so they can make more money off of you.

Millions of ppl grind their teeth at night which can be cured by avoiding caffeine.  But no doctor will tell you that.  They keep it secret so they can make more money off of you.

Maybe I have some kind of tolerance against coffe, I don't know. I have no problem drinking coffee before bed and I can't understand when people say "I can't have coffee in the afternoon because I can't sleep". It's many, many hours until bedtime! Very alien to me.

In fact, a cup of coffe has a relaxing effect on me. I guess because you are essentially taking a break. Sit down for ten minutes with a coffe and you feel much better!


If caffeine relaxes you then you are addicted to caffeine.

Ppl who smoke say the same thing.
"In fact, a cigarette  has a relaxing effect on me. I guess because you are essentially taking a break. Sit down for ten minutes with a cigarette and you feel much better!"

In the civilised world where we have free healthcare the doctors will.


No part of any world has free healthcare.

You pay for it with gigantic ridiculously high taxes.
You pay for it with a depressed economy.
You pay for it with depressed technology.
You pay for it with rampant poverty.
You pay, you pay and then you pay some more, whether you need any healthcare or not.

You can be 100% healthy every day for 10 years but you will still PAY thousands of $$$$ every single year for your "free healthcare".
