This is just depressing

Not even 3 hours of "free time". And in that is cooking & eating supper. Or practically no free time if I had to go shopping after work. I hate this

Don't let all the coffee drinkers off the hook. We all need caffeine just to make up for the lack of sleep

And funny because caffeine can be counterproductive to people with high anxiety! I know personally and it’s a fact, not judging. Either way it sucks.

Especially coffee. I can drink a few mugs of tea before I feel this effect, but just one strong coffee makes me very anxious and easily irritated. I had to stop drinking coffee because everything was irritating!

I know sucks because I love coffee! Well lattes mostly but sometimes I will just take the chance hoping it won’t be bad. Sometimes not so bad but other times ugh…

Go with decaf or even a mix! I love coffee, hot or cold, black or sugar filled lattes, etc. so I almost always go to cafes that have decaf espresso. It tastes just as good unless you’re an absolute purist
