How many people like really *LIKE* caffeine

[bluefirecorp]

Once upon a time, I overdosed on caffeine. From there, I learnt my lessons about dealing with caffeine.

After that, I lowered down my intake of caffeine to about 180-400 mg per day.

Never heard of a caffeine overdose. I guess I never quite took it to that level, LOL..... now my tolerance must be so high. So what happened when you overdosed? Symptoms?

I did vomit after like day 2 which made everything a lot better as there was still a LOT of caffeine in my vomit, hallucinations (or really weird dreams, not sure if I was awake or asleep), fast heartbeat, and massive confusion. I also believe I was massively dehydrated as well.

In reality, I took the equivalent of more than 37 redbulls of caffeine in less than an hour period. I've learnt my lesson. (~3 grams)

Coffee is cheap and I like the taste.  I can get 24 oz of ground premium coffee for maybe $15.

Theobromine / Roasted Cocoa is healthier and doesn't have any of the negative overload or withdrawal symptoms but it's costs twice as much.   24 oz of Crio Bru will set me back $28.   It's also not as tasty as coffee, like you have to add milk or sugar to make it taste like hot chocolate or else you get stuck with a bitter watery drink.

it still gives me a kick. i'm quite addicted to the taste of coffee by now, so it's hard to say that it's just the addiction to caffeine. but when you're addicted to something, it's hard to tell what you "like" and what you're "addicted to" and where the line is...

I need caffeine to get rid of migraines occasionally.  I don't drink sodas, tea, or coffee, but in summertime I get headaches and caffeine is the instant cure.

Are you sure it's not just dehydration? Have you just tried drinking water instead?

[hollowframe]

i really *like* it, yeah.

The smell and aroma of coffee makes me happy and high. I can't live without it. And also I like the health benefits of caffeine.

I put the coffe things behind a glass where is written "break only in emergency situations". I only use when I really need to be awake for long, or if I sleeped few hours and need to stay awake and productive. I know its addictive and toxic, and if I use it too much, I might become addicted, and the effects will be weaker over time.


warning:

Cafeine is toxic, most animals and plants will die if exposed to caffeine. Humans have crazy resistance agaist it, but can die too if exposed to a high level of caffeine. Don't give coffe for your pet, and be extra carefull if you are going to take pure caffeine.

At work the people who order coffee and stuff got de-caff one day accidentally.
so they poured it into the big tin of coffee that is just normal coffee (and not de-caff) to fool people, which is kinda stupid.

anyways so everyone is pouring themselves coffee and there like 'oh i need this stuff to wake me up'
so off they go to there desk... sipping away on their de-caffe.  I asked 30 mins later if it worked and everyones like 'yeah yeah i'm really alert now!!!'

I like coffee, but just the taste.. seems to have not much of an affect on me.. even really strong coffee.. I just enjoy the taste.

Yeah it's not dehydration.  I can load up on 2 liters of water and it doesn't help.  I vasodialate more when it's hot and that leads to instant migraine when its sunny.  If I hit a little bit of coke right as I feel it I can prevent it.

Headaches can also be a symptom of caffeine addiction - when you don't get your daily dose. But your use to cure migraine seems reasonable in your special case. As far as I recall, caffeine is also a component in some general medications against headaches.

ya.ya.yo!

It doesnt wear off 3 mins lol. It lasts for an hr or more, then you start crashing down. But I get your point, its short.

But its the only natural drug besides cannabis.

I love caffeine.

-It's makes a tasty beverage in the form of coffee and certain teas
-gives me energy

and most important:
-keeps my bowel movement regular

I honestly can't remember the last time I had coffee. Am I the only one here who doesn't particularly like it? I mean, not counting bitmarket.io, who apparently prefers to drink his own urine, but he seems weird anyway.
