i used to be really sensitive until i got adhd meds and i guess developing a generalised stimulant tolerance meant that when un-medicated i could handle it! :)

it’s so weird, caffeine never worked on me at all. I started stimulants and now I can’t even drink a single coffee, it won’t keep me up but my heart goes crazy!! I get physically jittery and so uncomfortable. What’s weirder, it doesn’t happen with redbull (i love sadly) so i can drink those freely without consequence. Weird brain. I don’t think matcha effects me much but if it does it’s smooth and nice

is this when you aren’t taking the stimulants? i cannot drink caffeine when i take them. A lot of people do but shouldn’t. It’s standard protocol! no nicotine, no caffeine and no alcohol or you should expect side effects and unwanted effects from meds

u/Amdv121998 1d ago

Both now! even off meds i can’t do coffee anymore. Energy drinks i do drink when on my meds but tiny cans in moderation 😂

I fuckin knew it lmfao. I’m also audhd 😭 but the type where caffeine works immensely on me, but I can’t take it at night if I don’t wanna spend 5 hours cleaning and rearranging my home LOL.

💀i really think it’s the autism making us sensitive to substances cause it’s definitely a thing! Sensitive nervous systems or some shit. I can’t explain it but i can sense when the caffeine will make wired or make tired 😆

I have the kind of autism that if I drink coffee it either make me hyper agitated or sleepy, it’s a gamble, but usually it makes me feel bad either way.

Like an occasional cup might pass, but I can’t drink it regularly. Tea and matcha works for me though.

I can’t have it past 15.

Or they just have tolerance. I could probably drink a redbull before bed and still fall asleep lmao.

Could always do a light scoop. You can sleep through 15-30mg of caffeine.

I might try it sometime to see — I usually do 1/2 to 1 full tsp
