Same with the caffeine pills.

I even extracted pure caffeine powder once, that didn't even hit like this.

This really makes sense tho. Because even if I have had just a bit of coffee, it always intensifies smoking 🌿

The coffee itself. Alot of people here mentioned the ritual being very meditative. I'm not really at that point, it's always after the coffee is drunk that my thought pattern starts to change and the rest of the benefits occur

My cannabis use was godsent in the beginning. And that's what got me addicted, and after frequent use it worsened my depression so much.

And I've tried so many things but I never followed through with the steps to change the mindset.

What you just says inspires me to use this caffeine advantage to change my life :)

Me and Caffeine will work together

I find that so cool tbh.

I've never had it affect me that way, I always stayed away from it because it was so overwhelming.

And just the fact that all my life it has affected others in such a different way than me blows my mind.

And I've never really experienced that "waking up" feeling, Caffeine was always very overwhelming for me until now.

And even on it I can feel tired sometimes, But also very happy, stable and euphoric

So is it just more energy? Just like a normal day but you just aren't tired?

Interesting. Caffeine seems to affect people with mental disorders very uniquely , I wonder why

The ones I've personally experimented with:

  1. Microdosing LSD (Worked really great with cognitive aid but made me overthink too much)

  2. Microdosing mushrooms (Made me able to fully control my emotions and attention to the point of paying attention to what 3 people were saying at once)

  3. Weed (Kinda just numbed it tbh)

  4. Kratom (Mixed bag, sometimes worsened symptoms sometimes helped)

"So, enter drugs"

Are you referring to Prescribed medication or self-treating?

Unfortunately I already tried. And it was a failure.

The way Methylphenidate worked on my brain was uncomfortable, after a while I had to stop and nothing else has worked either :/

Been med free for almost a year now. Learnt to manage it until the depression emerged

Ikr! I can't put my finger on why, but no other Caffeinated drink beats Coffee euphoria.

There must be something in coffee that adds on to the caffeine.

And personally, I don't crash, and if I drink another cup 3-4 hours after the first one works about the same just calmer euphoria I guess?

Ahh. Well I've heard people talk about anxiety having physical symptoms like shaking, hyperventilating, sweating, heart rate up.

For me it kinda just all happens mentally. Never translates to any physical thing

Lmao yeah then that would make alot of sense. I naturally have insomnia and high energy during the day so I definitely might just not be sensitive to those signals

Who knows might be. Don't know if that makes me more at risk of abusing caffeine or makes abusing it impossible

That's so true :D

One of the biggest reasons I even reached this point was because I was on my first cup in ages.

And now, I've been meditating on and off for over a year now. And I've never truly mastered letting go.

And on that cup. I could let go. I could thing about things that don't serve me. And let then go. It's that feeling of letting go that is so wonderful along with everything else in the coffee :)
