    I was told that, but while I have some ADHD traits (it runs on my maternal side of the family), it's not severe enough to have a significant impact on my life. Maybe I got just enough of the genes for caffeine resistance!

    The guys at work used to give me energy drinks, strong coffee and caffeine gels in the hope of making me buzz.

    I don't know if I've got a natural tolerance, or maybe because I eat a lot of dark chocolate I've built up a resistance. Caffeine doesn't do anything to me.

    Also apparently it's not good to down a whole mug of coffee in one go. They used to find it funny when I did that. I don't like coffee but I'll drink it if you give it to me.

    Well, many people aren't depressed, but some especially the working class and corporate workers know there is no point in their work and need stimulants to keep going and not kill themselves.

    If you find fulfilling work outside of capitalist systems, you also need less stimulants.
