    Caffeine gives me FAR worse withdrawal symptoms than my prescription Adderall. Caffeine also just really fucks me up in general, I think I have a caffeine sensitivity or something or maybe it’s just the GAD I have. The worst part is I really like caffeinated drinks and I convince myself “the caffeine won’t be bad” and chug a monster or coffee or something, then I feel extremely high stress like I’m on the verge of a stroke for the next few hours lol

    Also caffeine destroys my sleep more than my brain alone already does

      Couldn’t agree more. Caffeine—and stimulants in general—give me bad anxiety. Same symptoms as you.

      Don’t actually use coke and Adderall to stay awake, kids; I was just being sarcastic.
