MrsBananaGrabber
Would you get crazy heart palpitations?? I get them with anything over 2 shots of espresso
RoofTopBoys
And I'm sitting here drinking a 24 shot equivalent
donmcc
Yep. Another year or two and your'll be able to sleep again.

I started to drink coffee daily at 16. by 22 i was at 5+ coffees and 2-3 energy drinks. Am now 31, 2 coffees a day max, never past noon.

What did ur parents think when u came out of the closet?
AeroPNK
Do you have trouble focusing? I have trouble focusing. Where's my hat?
MediocrityGetsMeHot
I'm impressed you survived the withdrawals. I've never had my head split by an axe, but I'm pretty sure its a similar sensation.
stratus41298
Well done. Ive been drinking two cups a day and have noticed alot of headaches. Today is my first day off of it and it sssssuuuuuccckkksss
younotwantbreakfast
I've been on that rollercoaster. It's a painful ride.

If my relationship with caffeine is addiction, I'm ok with it.
PreciousPotato
Fun fact: one cup of Espresso contains only 45mg of caffeine (110mg/100ml), while one cup of coffee contains 160mg (80mg/100ml). For a /1
PreciousPotato
healthy adult, up to 400mg daily is nothing to worry about (=8 cups of Espresso or 3 cups of coffee).
PolyNomad
I used to casually consume 4-6 quad espressos daily until I figured out I was getting massive caffeine migraines. Now can’t have any. ;(
HukDriver
I once quit sex, booze and tobacco, all at once and cold turkey. that was the 5 longest minutes of my life.
MrWoland
Never understood why people think caffeine is bad?
GadenKerensky
I drink three or four a day. Two spoons of sugar and about half/third spoon of coffee. Then every night, one full coffee and three sugar.
IAmTheBadW01f
Of all possible addictions, coffee isn't bad at all. Consumption of black coffee correlates with increased life expectancy
JustDaShoemaker
Yup. I used to make my coffee with caffeinated water.
SpartanBurke
4 espressos daily for me, 2 double shot lattes or 4 single cappuccinos, less caffeine in espressos though, or so i'm told
BRex91
Have some lightly fried fish fillets to go with your lightly caffeinated tea
mozrael
Now go drink a whole cup of black coffee and experience NIRVANA
missnurse88
I drank a lot of coffee and it suppressed my appetite. Lost about 20 lbs. My body got used to it and the lbs went back on. Still love it tho
DieselWolf
Them be some rookie numbers.
throwingusforaloopagain
I really struggled with this too. I only drink water now after I OD'd and almost stayed up until ten after drinking a whole pot of arabica.
iconvincinglybullshhthings
Yikes, glad you made it 0_0
ThrowThrowThrowawayGentlyDownTheDrain
Until TEN? Rehab for you, for sure.
PurpleAid
Started drinking coffee at afe 12. In high school, had four cups a day. By end of high school, 1 cup. 2 years later, i hardly drink coffee.
PurpleAid
Energy drinks for the win
ApprehensiveBattle
Drinking coffee was harder for me to quit than smoking. Like way harder. Quit smoking cold turkey, took years to quit coffee.
Zimno
Best way to quit drinking coffee is to hate the taste.
ApprehensiveBattle
Yeah, drank it black and it was nasty. Found a really great green tea variation that I liked that helped as well.
PreciousPotato
On the other hand, you can just switch to decaf. Not much of a difference. I don't think I'll ever quit drinking coffee. No reason.
ApprehensiveBattle
That's a good point. A little decaf on the weekend maybe.
PreciousPotato
I drink LOTS of coffee, but I switched to decaf and tea, because that caffeine crash is really annoying.
TheOneAndOnlyZeke
Why the fucking hell would you cut down on caffeine. IT'S AWESOME AND FUCKING LOVE COFFEE....mmmm..... I've a headache
Sweetcharade83
Quick! More coffee!
purplephonecase
I think too much caffeine helped me take a bit of, ah, breakdown. Or it enabled me to function beyond my actual limit? All I know is that
purplephonecase
my skin is clear, my sleep is good and I'm now a morning person before caffeine = down to 2 cups of caffeine...coffee a day.
MilDravin
that reminds me, bout time for afternoon joe

kottm20a
Caffeine addiction is in the DSM V. So... there's that. But so was homosexuality until a few decades ago, not sure which side that helps.
gaugetx
Might as well have an iv of coke to me.
zigzagziggy
"I seen him"
gundamgreg
Boo this man
matyles
do the coke off the dick and save yourself a step
Willybum84
Ka cola?
JustPlaneWrong
Yeah, you'd need a cola to wash down all that semen.
CityYeti
And goes great with the blow you just snorted
BallsLikeWatermelonsPeckerLikeAThimble
10 espressos? I'd be dead.
MyLifeisaComplicatedDrinkingGame
Isn't that like super bad for your blood pressure
iHumanity
I'd be poorer at 10 a day.
PreciousPotato
It's just a bit over the recommended maximum. Though, if somebody isn't used to it, he probably ends up like Hemmy the Squirrel. :)
dotdogs
I'm allergic to coffee. I definitely be dead.
spitfire
You poor thing
grumpiestoldwoman
Fact: espresso has less caffeine than regular coffee.
bigbrothersbinary
A dopio has about the same an an average cup of Joe. So, yeah, if you drunk single shots. Otherwise, no. But i drink 5 before going to work.
CHUBMARINES
Cafe Bustelo. Yellow bricks at Walmart. Straight espresso and I drink 2-3 cups a day. It's also absolutely delicious
quitemadly
French press that shit. It's amazing.
TheManInTheIronMask
Found a Cuban , you sir live in dare county somewhere!
CHUBMARINES
Not a Cuban, but one did introduce me to the brand. No idea where dare county is though
UMDhockey17
My dad loves cafe bustelo but he's an old-Ish Greek man
TheManInTheIronMask
That would be dade county by the way
lordskiss
Espresso is the way of preparing coffee not the type purchased. There are espresso roasts on some bags which are best drank as an espresso.
CHUBMARINES
Okay, nice to know the differences. Thanks
lordskiss
Bustello is pretty darn good. Try buying local roasted coffee and grind before making, world of difference.
PatronSaintofKillers
I was doing 6 Monsters a day for a while. Still kept almost falling asleep driving
0TheFirehawk0
...you mean: your basic bodily functions were shutting down and dying while driving.
PatronSaintofKillers
Nah, I was getting like 600% of my daily Vitamin B, it was all good
0TheFirehawk0
O-o
stickemwiththepointyend
Good job! I had to cut way back on caffeine, and have stopped smoking cigarettes as of three weeks ago, I feel a lot better already.
PrincessDonaldTrumpBANNED
I never picked up either. We all know caffeine leads to premarital sex and meth
greentinroof
Now quit sugar and everything you eat will taste sweeter and you will feel better yet. Good job.
stickemwiththepointyend
Let's not get too crazy.
dickspade
I was the same way a while ago, Drank nothing but soda and smoking 2 packs a day. Now drink soda sparingly and quit smoking 10 years ago.
stickemwiththepointyend
I was horrible with soda and energy drinks both, it was ridiculous.
dickspade
I know what you mean. I look back now and shutter about the amount I drank. I drink a variety with water being the primary.
stickemwiththepointyend
I don't know how my kidneys or teeth survived, to be honest.
dickspade
Mine might not have. I may have to be on a special diet to lose the weight that I gained from all the years of soda consumption.
coolguyzone420
Good job dude! I've tried to quit smoking 4 times but I keep coming back for some reason. Stress.. it's stress.
SundayfundayBetterThanaMonday2
I feel you :( it seems impossible
MisterZurkon
Keep trying dude. I attempted to quit a bunch over the 12 years I smoked. Learning stressors helps the next time. 4 months clean now!
tehmeisterer
I started associating it mentally with dying, and then I didn't want to anymore. Same thing happened to Sartre. Still drink a lot though...
CirB
Yeah, stress is a piece of shit when trying to quit. I lapsed quite a few times along years until I finally got off. You'll get it done!
PreciousPotato
Trouble is, that anything is a trigger. Boredom, stress, being with friends, being alone... :P
PotooGeatAndWise
Keep at it. I recommend chantix. That's how I stopped after over 20 years smoking
HaggisBaconAndIrnBru
What's chantix? 10 year smoker here and I feel like my lungs need a break
PotooGeatAndWise
Stop smoking aid. Prescription needed. Talk to your doctor.
stickemwiththepointyend
Well I confess I'm using one of those things that will get me called a faggot if I talk about it. But I've tried other way with no luck.
iconvincinglybullshhthings
If it works, right?
stickemwiththepointyend
It really does. Haven't touched a cig in three weeks, and I've already cut my nicotine down to 3mg.
PreciousPotato
Cool. Maybe I should try that, too. Strange enough, but gums and patches, make me feel nauseous, while I can smoke 30 cigarettes daily /1
EvoVGt
I am at 3 months with the unspeakable thing .. and yesterday I don't remember even using it
TypicalGayMan
You're only a faggot for using it if you're a teenager. Getting off of an addiction with it is what it's for.
