    Some people have a gene that makes them hyper-sensitive to caffeine. You either try lowering the dose or just no amount may work for you.

    With consistency. Whether I have 1 cup of coffee in the morning, or drink caffeinated beverages all day, the key for me is to do that consistently, or suffer dire consequences. Ramping up, I can’t focus and anxiety attacks. Ramping down I get migraines.

    Woe betide me if I am on a ramp down and find myself having to take an Excedrin or three. That spike keeps me up for days.

    I smoke some crack before drinking coffee…

    That way I didn’t feel the effects of caffeine…
