The longest I've gone without it is 3 months and I saw no improvement
Just became increasingly depressed
I wish I could live without it, wondering if it's behind skin problems I'm having
>goes without addiction substance for 3 months >felt symptoms of withdraw >thinks it's because being off coffee is bad
moron.
plenty of people life happy, normal lives without coffee, time for you to do the same.
Withdrawal symptoms are only supposed to last like 1 week.

you do realize your dopamine and other endorphin receptors have built up an association with coffee right?
you felt depression because you weren't performing your addiction ritual.
get a hobby that gives you the same pleasure as making coffee

I can't have hobbies. I have problems learning/processing information in general, have had them my whole life except for a few short months when this medication Wellbutrin worked and I could suddenly remember and understand things I read or listened to. I've tried countless times over my life to attempt.things I was interested in and I space out, immediately forget things, etc. This is including as a child long before.I ever had coffee. No idea what to do because even ADHD medications don't help. Coffee helps me to.withstand the mental anguish at my life being so empty.

>i can't have hobbies because *checks notes* uhhh learning processing issue
i assume you habitually browse and post on IST, that's a hobby. you know the slang, the culture, the boards.
you don't have a problem with processing information, you just dont have motivation.

I had these problems before IST even existed and also during high school when I stopped using IST.

that only confirms what i said.
if you really had issues, you wouldn't have been able to use IST once it came out, you wouldnt have been able to learn the culture of it.
go get a fricking hobby already.

I've tried dozens of times and the only thing I end up with is frustration at not learning or remembering and an overwhelming need to sleep.

>ive tried dozens of times
have you tried dozens of different hobbies? i highly doubt it

I've tried everything I'm interested in and no, I don't anymore
Video games became too difficult to understand. I can't learn how to do anything in fighting games, can't think enough for strategy games and forget what is going on in RPGs + plus have difficulty reading too much dialog. I struggle immensely to understand crafting systems in RPGs, it gives me as much of a headache as trying to read manuals for power tools.

i know you wont listen to anything because you've convinced yourself you have this problem, but you really don't.
the fact that you can hold this conversation tells me it's not a learning issue, it's motivation.
you want to tell my why you can't, you want to defend the issue you've convinced yourself of.
i would tell you to convince yourself to figure out complicated sources, but my words wont mean anything to someone who's decided they are incapable.
It has proven health benefits, but it's up to you if those are worth becoming addicted to a substance that gives withdrawal symptoms when you cease use.
I love it, but now I drink caffeine more because of what will happen if I don't. Do you really want to be dependent on a luxury?
To function without sleep at my job and to keep the headaches away. You're right though. Nobody really -needs- caffeine except for the sleep deprived
tastes good and makes you feel good and energized. i dont need it for the caffeine at all and would honestly drink decaf if most of it wasn't so expensive and bad tasting.
I like how it tastes and I like how it makes me feel, same thing could be said about heroin. But no other (socially acceptable) substance has as much of a positive effect on my day-to-day life like coffee does. Improves work, concentration, workout, etc. Why wouldn't you be drinking it?
let me ask all coffee drinkers in here.
how is the process of preparing your morning coffee, grind, sugar, creamer, etc.
any different from a heroin addict's process of shooting up? >man coffee is so good! i just need to add 20 different flavorings so that i can drink it without vomiting.
Put a capsule in the coffee machine, press the button > small amount of hot coffee-water comew out, give it a minute to cool off and shoot it in a gulp or two. Go on with the day.
Get my artisan roasted Brazilian beans grinded while water heats up, leave it brewing while I eat my eggs, enjoy (black) upstairs with my oats while watching something on yt
You Black folk are so dumb, muh but you're dependant on a substance u addicted !!!! U have addiction!!! Same could be said about anything. What?? You eat MORE than 50 grams of protein per day??? Plenty of people live happy lives eating around 50 grams!!! Or: explain your meal plan / macros without sounding like you have an eating disorder. Omg u addicted to the gym !!!! You go there MORE than twice a week???? You don't need to spend more than 1 hour per week there you're addicted !!!
Fricking moron levels of cope, keep seething while I'm more active and perform better while drinking something I genuinely enjoy LMAO
>have a cup of tasty coffee occasionally before morning workout >"NOOO you are ADDICTED!!"
There's a big difference between someone who drinks a pot a day to function versus someone who has a cup in the morning with breakfast. Quit being a sperg.
>put coffee in plastic container >cut up butter and add to coffee cup >smother with honey >brew coffee >stir >add frickload of heavy cream >stir >enjoy on the way to work
It's different because I don't pass out afterwards, can safely operate heavy machinery, pay my bills on time, and if I don't drink it for a while I'm totally fine. Alternatively, I'll just drink it black.
bro, did your uncle have the taste of coffee on his tongue when he molested you as a kid or what ?
it's all addiction.
the fact that you cant figure that out cements the fact that coffee is for midwits
you're deranged, I drink coffee because I like the taste, I'm not addicted as I have a high resistance to caffeine like a few other members of my family.

Even if his uncle did, why would it affect him?
Wouldn't your comment make more sense if it was something along the lines of: > Bro, did you have the taste of coffee in you mouth when you got molested as a kid?
Although, I highly doubt that this is the case, as it is more likely that all he could taste at the time of getting molested was semen.
Only if you stir it with a plastic spoon.
why would you stir coffee? you pour it in a cup and drink it. what am i missing here? you dont put anything else in your coffee... do you..?
Milk, you chud.
It mixes itself as you pour it though
I only drink instant coffee
Why do you need it?
To have the energy to get outnof bed/get off the couch/cook/do laundry/etc. and not be insanely depressed and ruminating about the past
>"is [obvious sign of addiction] bad for me?"
what do you think
The longest I've gone without it is 3 months and I saw no improvement
Just became increasingly depressed

Guys I can get past the headaches but it's the long slide into depression that gets me

yeah man, you totally would drink decaf any time! it's just bad tasting and expensive!
Where picture of black women?
I got you, senpai
Coffee is tasty, I like it, and I like the process of preparing a nice cup of espresso.

Based. Nothing quite beats a cup of black coffee before a morning run.
wow, you sure are mad at people about coffee.
you are in no way an addict defending his addiction.
seethe more.
It doesn't involve needles. And it's widely accepted in society.
Withdrawal symptoms are just headache for a day or two.
uh huh, and im sure you can quit anytime you want.
Put the coffee in the filter. Put water. Press button
wait a bit
pour BLACK coffee into my cup and drink it
I only drink it for the taste btw, it has never given me energy
>i only drink it for taste
yeah just like how alcoholics only drink it to loosen up.
ok, now tell me how the 2nd half of that sentence fits in your headcanon
it's all addiction.

t. call me whatever you want Ill start a fricking Boston coffee party if THEY ever decide to frick it somehow....
Where’s the list provoking image?
Real Mormon hours right now
>drink tea
>feel nothing
>take caffeine pill
>feel nothing
>drink coffee
>feel caffeinated
why
same reason why smokers need things in their mouths to feel good.
mental association
I like a big frappucino with a straw, lovely on a humid summer's day.
Why are so many IST autists so anti coffee ?
why are so many IST users anti addiction*

have always had insane anxiety, even in instances where I knew it was crazy, my heart would be beating out of my chest and I would be so awkward.
Quit coffee, within a few weeks the anxiety is completely gone. There's just no anxiety now...just...nothing... absolutely insane.
only if it Starbucks bullshit
