What do you feel is your reaction to caffeine?
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.

This is my reality too, although maybe a little less pronounced as I can still drink decaf coffee. It was such a profound uptick in my mental health when I cut out caffeine, so I don’t think I’ll be going back anytime soon.
I can drink decaf, since it's 99.9% caffeine-free. But most of the time I drink rooibos tea.
@inasaba @underscore_ rooibos or redbush tea is a lifesaver when I want a real cuppa, but really should be sensible as caffeine affects my sleep. You can even put. A dash of milk in it, and pretend it's real tea :autistic_lurker:
Yeah, I take my rooibos chai with soy milk.
