My advice is to drink green tea as well during the day. Even tho it has caffeine as well, it makes me feel really relaxed, so if I drink a coffee afterwards I don't feel the negative effects as much

Like a lot of things in America, it's a cultural issue. Coffee addiction is seen as a profound freedom. People wear t-shirts, hats, and display bumper stickers to champion themselves as addicted to sugary drinks. I want to leave.

I get up at 5:50 in the morning, leave the house around 6:30, arrive at work between 7:15 and 7:45 depending on traffic and whether I need to pull over and walk a few laps around the car so I don't kill somebody else by falling asleep at the wheel. I get home at around 18:00 and go to bed at around 22:00 and then get woken up by nightmares or whatever at around 2am and 4:30am on a regular night. Pls send help

I used to be really anxious and paranoid all the time anyway and coffee only made it worse, but once I dealt with my issues I started to enjoy coffee more again. Also helps if you don't constantly drink large amounts of it, because after a while of doing that you stop noticing the beneficial effects and experience more of the downsides.

>drink 2 litres of coffee with an added gram of caffeine every day
That's a ridiculous amount of caffeine. Just the coffee itself is twice the recommended max limit for daily intake of caffeine. You only need that much because you started using too much in the first place and now you're overcompensating for the huge crashes you're constantly going through.

You need to taper down on your intake. Start reducing the amount of extra caffeine you add, maybe reducing it by 100mg per week until you're just drinking the coffee. Then try to cut your coffee intake by half in the same way. You don't need nearly that much. I remember how shitty I felt when I was having like 500mg of caffeine every day which fucked my sleep up and made me feel weird all the time, can't imagine what it's like to be having around 1800mg. Hope you can fix that, man.

Thank you for the actual advice anon.
I know it's really fucking unhealthy and hope that I can cut down my intake somewhat during my next vacation (whenever that might be). I assume that the withdrawal will be a bitch and a half so I am hesitant to start reducing my caffeine consumption while I still need to drive every morning.

It doesn't really have much to do with genetics. If someone is just normally anxious for whatever reason then a stimulant usually makes it worse. And if you drink coffee regularly you just build up a tolerance and don't get much of an effect anymore anyway.

It doesn’t necessarily cause anxiety in me but rather multiplies any existing anxiety by ten. On rare relaxing days I can drink a cup and feel perfectly okay. Otherwise I pretty much always go for decaf or a coffee alternative if I want some.
