caffeine

[gusl]

After 1 tasty can of Java Monster, 443ml, my only noticeable reactions are sweaty hands, and a slight jitteryness / unease. I cannot understand why this is considered a productivity drug.

Addendum: if I didn't know what I had ingested, I'd probably attribute the symptoms to mental causes, e.g. anxiety.

sometimes it helps, sometimes it doesn't.

i have noticed that if one is already anxious, caffeine will likely have a detrimental effect. unfortunately, these are the times when one is predisposed to consume it.

it all comes down to confounding i think.

right now I either get full throttle citrus, starbucks vanilla, or monster khaos (but the walgreens is out of monster khaos and I don't really like amp). Interestingly, the full throttle is rather low on potassium and actual vitamin c (there's been a problem with vitamin c turning into benzene in sodas), so I tend to meander in terms of what I actually want.

I just like regular coffee, man. It's tasty and comforting :)
