How do you intake caffeine and how much?
If it’s coffee/tea, how do you take it? I typically end up consuming 200-400 Mg a day depending on if I go to the gym or work overnight. I either do black coffee (iced ideally) or sugar free redbull/monster. I’m considering switching to caffeine pills but I know it wont scratch that habitual itch of drinking it down.
My caffeine intake fluctuates in an almost cyclical pattern. I’ll injest a lot to the point of ineffectivness, then scale back to nothing, then slowly ramp up again. It’s not purposefull, just a natural progression I tend to follow.
Right now, I’m off it completely. I’ll stay this way until I have a day where I’m really tired. I’ll break down and have a cup of coffee. That’s usually the breaking point for me.
At the max, a day could be two Monster energy drinks, four 12oz cups of coffee, and an occasional cup of black tea. A few days at this point and I feel nothing from it, and begin to scale back.
I haven’t gotten to that level since starting on ADHD meds. Turns out I was self medicating without realizing it.
