similarily if you pop 200mg of caffeine and fall asleep that might be a slight indication that you have adhd
Just sounds like caffeine addiction. I used to be able to drinks pot of coffee and then go to sleep. Then health issues caused me to give up all caffeine for several years and now if I have half a cup im wired for hours...
I know some people are "caffeine addicted" but I genuinely don't know how the fuck people do it.
I drink a cup of coffee a day, 16oz, sometimes there's also an energy drink in the mix, on some really serious days I have a headache or migraine and an Excedrin adds a little more in the mix.
One day I made a full pot of coffee and decided to attempt to consume the entire thing over the course of the day. I felt like my heart was trying to escape from my chest and that I was soon going to die.
An 8oz cup of coffee only has like 75-100mg of caffeine in it. With your 16oz cup plus an energy drink plus an Excedrin, that would be like ~400-500mg of caffeine. Assuming a typical drip coffee maker that can make 12 cups, you're looking at a total of like ~1000-1200mg of caffeine, double or triple your estimated daily amount. So it's kinda no wonder you felt wired that day. Extreme, sudden spikes in your stimulant intake will do that.
