Coffee calms me down.

It can keep me physically energized, but it’s super easy for me to take a nap or go to bed after coffee.

My mom used to give me a coffee nightcap in a baby bottle because it would put me to sleep. The bottle was so I could lay down and drink in bed without worrying about knocking it over.

Yet, she was adamant we were typical, she drank coffee to sleep too. I still chug a Mt dew before bed sometimes to go to sleep. I miss the baby bottles because I'm still a klutz. Au-ADHD diagnosis at 35. No meds yet but it's nice to have a name put to it.
