A strange reaction to caffeine.

I haven’t been sleeping well lately, waking up two to three times a night. I have resisted the urge to drink coffee in the morning to combat my sleepiness because I figure I need to become as healthy as possible before I start my internship in the fall, or else I’ll be run ragged at the end of each day.

Anyway, today I gave in and got a large double-double from Tim Horton’s. Big mistake. I feel more sluggish and sleepy than I did before drinking coffee! I’ve felt this way after drinking coffee before, and just don’t get it… caffeine is supposed to make you feel awake and alert, not make you feel like this!

Is this further proof I am one strange cookie?

    maybe somebody else can back me up on this with proper sources, data, etc, but I’ve heard that _apples_ are actually a lot better at waking you up.

    Mr. Big- I’ve heard that too… I brought an apple today, I’ll have to eat it when I’m feeling sleepy.

    Jess- I totally agree!
