Coffee Conundrum

So, I have a strange thing when it comes to coffee. I react very oddly to different forms of coffee, but I love the flavor of a lot of it, so I just can’t stop drinking it. I think it is interesting that most people drink coffee to wake up. The caffine in coffee is an important factor in this effect, but what is odd to me is that I do not have the ability to be awakened by caffine. I think this is weird. What is even weirder than this is that not only does it not wake me up, but it also sometimes will actually put me to sleep. I think this is a strange thing because I would have appreciated the extra alertness when I was in college so that I could have actually stayed up late when I needed to write a paper. I have many friends who are effect in the normal way by coffee, but not so many that are effected in the way that I am. Coffee tends to taste good to me, but if I am trying to stay awake, then coffee is not the thing that I will be drinking in order to do so!

    Have you ever been tested for A.D.H.D.

    I have heard that stimilants (for example caffein) will actually calm & relax you rather than stimulate you as coffee should do.

Got something to say?
