    I miss weed- but at the same time I'm glad as hell that I've broken its spell over me.

    I used to enjoy a freshly packed bowl with my first cup of coffee on a weekend morning. Since I currently have no ready routes away from sobriety I try not to think about it.

    When I first gave up weed I also abruptly stopped drinking coffee and the complete caffeine deprivation induced a migraine issue which alcohol is an almost 100% guaranteed trigger. I've found a new balance and am very happy with it, I've resumed drinking coffee and have seem the very slight constant migraine gradually fade. Alcohol will still amplify it to excruciating though so I no longer drink at all. Coffee is an absolute morning necessity however.

    I personally love to abuse caffeïne, hehe. But since I really love sleep as well I don't drink it in the evenings.

    I dont know why people use caffeine to keep them awake, or to wake them up, because after you come off that high, especially with the sugar, you have a huge crash later and feel more tired than you did before.....

    thats why I dont know why people drink energy drinks or redbulls....... Ive seen people chug red bulls, and then an hour or two later, they are extremely sluggish and tired

    Hmm... that must not happen to everyone. Not too long ago, I chugged a 32 oz Rockstar (double-size). The sluggishness never came.

    Well, I mainly drink coffee in the mornings. It really gets me ready for the day, waking me up. My experience with coffee to stay awake after a full day isn't very good neither. I don't get the energy drinks neither, but mainly because they taste very dirty in my opinion. :)

    I have this great method to stay energetic throughout the day.

    It works great.

    Me too generally. I have a great bed, but I'm also easily entertained till late at night. And in the end, I also just love coffee. :D

    This works like a charm... unless you're a lifetime insomniac.
