Orb Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 (edited) I'll explain after the results, if you guys answer honestly, we may come to a breakthrough regarding people's Affinity for Caffeine. I get error messages when trying to make a poll so I'm doing it through here. Please answer these 2 questions honestly (self honesty is important for this): 1. Do your eyes burn when your sweat gets in them? 2. Are you able to drink coffee/caffeine daily without any side effects? (Less sleep, anxiety, jitteriness, overthinking, gut inflammation/discomfort, etc.) Edited September 29, 2022 by Orb Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone. Mind is clear of limitation.

Blessed2 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 1. Not entirely sure, but I guess not really. 2. Compared to most people, yes.

Loop Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 1. No, but my friend I was sitting next to when I read that said yes. 2. Not really unless it is tea, my friends said yes, neither of us really drink caffeine very often. Quote Mention Ten thousand tears, One Belly Laugh.

Orb Posted September 30, 2022 Author Share Posted September 30, 2022 Thanks for the responses, after watching a YouTube video and also listening to my body, I have a theory that people with more acidic bodies don't tolerate caffeine as well as people who have less acidic bodies. So if sweat doesn't burn your eyes it indicates your body is naturally less acidic, my sweat burns my eyes. Out of the 3 responses so far, the people who said sweat doesn't burn their eyes also said they can enjoy caffeine without any side effects. I'm waiting for more people to give their experiences. For me when I drink coffee daily my gut feels uncomfortable and I'm not able to digest food very well, there's also increased anxiety too. Again, it's all about your Affinity to caffeine, some people can tolerate it no problem, and others don't. My great grandfather lived until 103 years old and he had coffee most of his life.

Orb Posted September 30, 2022 Author Share Posted September 30, 2022 I might sound like a witch doctor, I'm just going into this really intuitively. Quote Mention "Mediocrity is gone.

Phil Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I think a lot of people think caffeine stimulates as in wakes you up. But it seems like it just makes you feel like you’re not sleepy. So if one is really trying to grok the wakefulness one is, caffeine might not be conducive if one believes one is awake but is actually sleeping & dreaming there is caffeine. Idk.

noomii Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 1. No 2. Not coffee. I can drink green tea or eat cacao but I avoid it in the evening to be able to sleep Quote Mention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 No and no. Caffeine often makes me feel like I've walked down the laundry detergent and cleaning products aisle in a store, a constricted feeling in my head. It gets less noticeable if you have caffeine frequently though. Quote Mention Youtube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orb Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 @Phil Can you elaborate on this? Believing one is awake but sleeping and dreaming theres caffeine? @noomii Ah okay, im tapering off from caffeine now. @Mandy lol, It does create a constricted feeling, also makes me feel more stressed than normal.

In the sense wakefulness isn’t dualistic. Quote Mention YouTube Website Sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
