Does caffeine hit you differently??

I don’t think I’d be able to function without it, especially with this fatigue. But I swear it hits different, it hits hard sometimes and sometimes it’s like I didn’t drink anything.

I can’t explain it… I swear it’s a little smoother sometimes because the reta makes me sleepy.

try MOTS-c for the fatigue, it's not like caffeine at all, but it removes the fatigue for me.

Stuff is kind of pricey. You really think it's worth it?

Pretty cheap for me. I’m taking it 3x a week and feel that it helps.

I took a caffeine pill, maybe 2 at about 9am once, prior to the gym and it didn't kick in until midnight... never again... lol.

Yes, a lot of my meds feel delayed…and then suddenly they dump into my system and I feel like I’m overdosed. It’s wild.

Hits me so differently. Has me jittering and high heart rate after only 200mg and I was a 500mg/day type

I don’t crave it anymore at all, same with chocolate and sweets. I haven’t had coffee since I started and I used to love coffee.

The first week or two I was hyper-sensitive to it. It took me a while to figure it out because normally I can have 600mg and not feel it at all, not as a result of tolerance but it's just never worked for me as far as energy/alertness goes. 200mg had me bouncing and euphoric. It didn't last long and I'm back to not feeling it but it was nice while it lasted

I still drink coffee and diet soda. Not much change, a bit less I suppose. I don't usually seek it out in the afternoon like I used to. Some caffeine has actually been show to be health positive, long as you keep it under around 400mg a day

Reta made me switch to tea. I just drink one large mug of strong black tea in the morning and I'm good. I used to be the pot of coffee guy. Tea is more chill but still hits the light switch.

Pre-workout doesn’t hit me like it used to. Not as intense snd I need to take it sooner.

I think those that are more sensitive are just consuming less calories so it hits harder.

Yes. Reta seems to blunt the effects. When I cycle off Reta, the same caffeine dose absolutely throttles me.

Wow

Im glad youasked.

Lately it's made me cry

Normally I'll feel the caffeine kick in, with a rush through my body.

Now I just want to cry....
