caffeine sucks

[hyuri]

okay, so I get an Adrenaline Rush to help me stay awake, yeah? then I drink it, of course, and suddenly I’m all spacey and weird‑feeling, and then I stop being so spacey and start edging into reeeeeally sleepy.

fucking caffeine. wish I’d noticed that before. caffeine acts as a sedative for me, beyond a fairly low quantity. >_<

I love this soundtrack.

The problem with using a lot of something to achieve an effect, is that it can create a pavlovian response the other way.

When I was in the military had a lot of night shifts (about 60% of the time) and drank a lot of coffee to stay awake. Now I get really drowsy when I drink coffee, and at times resorted to drinking cola when I couldn't sleep at night.

Anything from Starbuck's or Seattle's Best makes me take a nap, especially if I pay for the extra espresso shots. Greeeat!
