I agree. I have 2 cups of instant a day. But if I have 3 then it causes my symptoms to become much worse.

My favourite bit was in the lesbian episode where Sharon is talking about her netball pals and they all have the first names of famous lesbians like Ellen and martina!

I think that’s my problem. I FEEL like I’m a slow metaboliser. If I go over 2 cups it screws me up completely. And because I’m an idiot I have 3 cups sometimes out of boredom.

I’ve always been a little sensitive to caffeine, but after I started Invega, I’ve become suuuper sensitive. One cup is enough to keep me awake for 6-8 hours, and it will make my thoughts and heart race like hell.

I always think its better than eating something,

Then freak out.

Am seriously considering stopping all caffeine. Not looking forward to the withdrawal headaches though

Fast Caffeine Metabolizer. Unlike the majority of people, caffeine is broken down faster in your liver, so it has less effect on you. Supposedly this decreases heart attack risk, although other studies show caffeine is generally good for the heart. Caffeine will be less effective at preventing Breast Cancer, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Parkinson’s disease. Caffeine will not make your breasts smaller.

I’ve never tried instant though I think I may have two cups a year or so of the drip kind.

Need to put some milk in there bro… the proteins help with mood and keeping the stomach regular.
