Coffee....I cant stop drinking it.

I'll make a pot, pour a cup, and drink it straight black. I'm averaging (a full pot is 12 cups) 3 pots a day.

Everyone asked me what I want for christmas, I told them all to chip in for a $100 Tim Hortons gift certificate.

:( i guess its better than my previous addiction to pepsi and coke

Sounds like a serious health concern. I've read that excessive coffee can lead to a whole load of health problems.

About 8 years ago I was drinking 2 pots a day and it was really messing me up. Since I decided to quit I may have had about 4 cups.

Well for one: Coffee is very acidic and can cause what some people might know as a bleeding ulcer (hope you like stomache pains!) - Caffeine in extreme doses over extended periods time can cause hallucinations and a complete elimination of naturally produced melatonin (inability to sleep naturally)

For another: Look at your teeth, are they nice and yellow/brown yet? Take up smoking too! :)

Other than that, coffee rules!@ ... Well... I used to like it untill I got my ulcer ;)

Then you have the chemical imbalance known as ADD/ADHD, and "uppers" have little to no effect.

Ask someone who has ADHD what happens if they sniff a line of coke or eat 200mg of dex. They get cotton mouth, and thats about it.

thats because caffeine is addictive? bleeding ulcers and arrhythmia not good. moderation is key.

yeah i dont think i have add or adhd, i dont drink much pop, or caffeine products, so i havent built up a tolerance. a couple days ago i drank 7 a-rush, 5 of those starbucks frappacino's in the glass bottle, and a coffee in the day (i work at pepsi and a couple cases "broke") and yeah no ill effects. I am not a hyper person as it is and never have been so i dont think add or adhd will be the cure for that dr rasmus :D

I don't get any feelingsfrom caffeine. I've drank 10 redbulls in 15 minutes, and my pulse didnt even go up at all. It actually went down a couple bpm.

LOL, That is one of the biggest bullshit statements Ive seen here. Sure your pulse may have stayed the same, Try your Blood pressure next time. Also your a moron if your think coffee wont do anything to you. your nervous system for one is taking a beating. Do yourself a favor and quit posting Lies. Im sure you dont drink 3 pots a day.

Well, then all I can say to explain your abnormal tolerance must be that you are a mutant, and you also breathe fire - and see in the dark. Yes, that's it.

:whocares: :english: :closed: You're an idiot.

Each pot contains "12 cups" which equivelates to an average of 1 actual cup of coffee. Which means that "12 cups" gives me 6 in a regular coffee cup youd use while sitting at tim hortons.

Now, fuck off, and go crawl back into the dank hole you came out of. Shithead.

I used to drink anywhere from 2-10 litres of pepsi per day

I worked at A&W and we got free pop, so I would grab one of those huge glasses and drink about 6-10 of those per shift, then go home and have a case of pepsi before bed.

One day I decided to quit, and in the past ~year I have only had the occasional pop

So you are asking for help yet when someone is offering THEIR opinion you choose to cut them down? I realise that he was being condecending and rude, but that is no reason to reciprocate the hate.

Caffiene IS bad for you when abused. Any stimulant is, and dont say just because its grown its natural therfore good for you. Food for thought, Cocaine is derived from a plant, and is in most part pure even after it has undergone its synthesis.

I would recommend you go see a doctor, you live in calgary so it wont cost you a penny to go and get a proffessional opinion.

Dr. R is correct with his stomache ulcers, Trust me (even though I havent had one) they are painful and only open doors to a world of pain and suffering that you dont want.

Try to wein yourself off coffee and on to fruit juices (preferably that of a mix with lesser acidic fruit like apples and bananas (actually they are basic!) a nice cup of fruit juice helps you wake up and feel fresher then a cup of joe.

I'll cut down my coffee, but any kind of fruit juice, since i can remember, has always given me acid reflux. i burp up stomach acid and my stomach is uncomfortable. So I refuse to drink any kind of fruit juice. I think it's the acid content? as far as the guy i just insulted? bleh. I wasn't asking for advice I was simply stating Im addicted to coffee :) the advice was a bonus. im not going to be nice to some assclown calling me bad names on a message forum. lol

Now, fuck off, and go crawl back into the dank hole you came out of. Shithead.

Interesting come back... So each 12 cup pot of coffee = 1 Actual cup huh? Well I'll have you know the standerd Size for 1 cup is 250ml or 8oz. A can of pop is 12oz.

Now also little bit of info here an XL Coffee from Tim hortons is a 20oz cup. A standard Coffee pot holds 8 cups at 8oz. there are 32oz in a Litre. Using simple math a Standard coffee pot has 64oz in it or Roughly 2 liters. So if im hearing this RIGHT you consume, in a day, 192oz of coffee or 6 Liters. Also that would equal out to slightly more than 9 1/2 Tim hortons extra large Coffees.

So dude, for your own sake either A) quit lieing OR B) seriously quit drinking that much coffee because you will suffer.

Coffee will cause a temporary spike in your blood pressure. with you drinking that much, your BP would pretty much be elevated all day. Do a little reading on the effects of hypertension and you may reconsider the amount of coffe you drink. (I did when i ran into some BP issues)
