Anyone else feel like caffeine negatively impacts their learning?

The tolerance I've developed to it because of consuming it for such a long time means it really doesn't do anything for me anymore, no matter how much I drink... but it's worse than that, because I've also developed a dependency on it meaning I have to drink it just to feel normal, and as soon as the initial effect (which isn't even noticeable anymore) wears off I feel really tired and can't concentrate properly. Basically, whereas in the beginning I felt normal most of the time and got a rush when I drank caffeine, now I feel tired most of the time and only feel normal (for a very brief period) when I drink caffeine.

Think I'm gonna try quitting and see if my energy levels balance out a bit. Hopefully I don't go from feeling tired most of the time to feeling tired all of the time.
