#caffeine

I’m very sensitive to caffeine. It makes me anxious, but when I’m tired at work, a little can help. Today I drank just one can of Diet Coke and now I’m completely wired. My hands are shaking and my anxiety is through the roof--just ONE can! Meanwhile, I have friends who can drink two pots of coffee and go straight to sleep. I wish I understood the science behind caffeine sensitivity because it’s really weird! #Caffeine #Weird #Confession #Science #Medicine

Fun fact about neurodiverse people Some people with Autism are wired differently, to the point where their energy is not boosted by drinking caffeine. For example, when I used to drink caffeine, I would find it doesn't give me energy, it just makes me really groggy, slow, and stressed. Drinking it right before bed (one time) also didn't do anything, I was trying to keep myself awake, but in the end, I fell asleep within 15 minutes. That is why I now just try to avoid it entirely. #Neurodiversity #Autism #Caffeine
