    I worked with someone who would bring 4 cans of monster to work every day, but he told me he was essentially addicted. He said he’d get pounding headaches if he didnt drink them now. Its probably not all that different from a cocaine habit.

      Caffeine habits are very real, and holy shit, that’s like 6-7 coffees a day. If he went cold turkey, it would be a week of hell at home, vomiting from the migranes.

        I think knowing him made me reframe how I view caffeine. I treat it as a potent drug and it seems to affect me that way now, so I barely use it.
