Coffee and Caffeine FAQ

I went to Pete's Coffee and had a 16 oz cup of regular coffee by mistake. I requested decaf, but she must have made a mistake. I had not had regular coffee in 2 years and WOW. I felt a surge of energy like never before and for two hours I was very assertive, aggressive and fast at work. Then two hours later I developed extremely sweaty palms and they are still sweaty 12 hours later as I write this comment. While at work I felt like every call I received was going to be some terrible news and every time I saw a patient, he was going to unhappy with my care. Needless to say, coffee is poison for my brain. I am very sensitive to it now more than ever. Too bad b/c I liked the effects of the first two hours. Thank God the effects are temporary b/c I hate the sense of impending doom. I will be back to my happy self tomorrow. If you are sensitive to caffeine, DON'T BE STUPID Avoid it and be happy. Life is too short for self inflicted suffering.
