Why do you "feel" like drinking coffee?

[Ephemera1]

I hear people saying they "feel like a cup of coffee" but why? Like are you addicted and you crave it or you're tired or what? I stay away from coffee personally so I wouldn't know.

[emmabee11]

I say the same thing and by need i mean without a cup of coffee i'm not entirely focused or sane the whole day alhough today i just realized i haven't had my cup of coffee :\ lol sometimes i forget and i wonder why i've felt less awake today, it just really gives my body that wake-up i need, i don't drink it as soon as i get up like a lot of people do and i don't know how they do i can't stomach it, it makes me feel sick without any water and food in my stomach first, but i'm not entirely awake or sane without my daily cup, i feel like it's the unique sugar rush it gives me as well, i could eat chocolate or a biscuit but it doesn't give the same rush as a sugar in coffee. So when i say i need my cup i need it, i will be sure to not forget my cup later on lol.

It's a relaxant for me. I'm dependent on it because I've drank coffee since I was 14. If I don't have it I get a headache that would usually occur in the morning but by the third day it'd be gone. I have one to two cups of coffee per day. I crave the taste.

[Ephemera1]

A headache because you don't drink it? Chit dats na good

[mooky06]

Yeah it happens. It happens in the morning and goes away till the second day. But the third day it clears up and is completely gone.

[akadatank44]

Headache is a symptom of Caffeine addiction. You are having withdrawal lol

[mooky06]

@akadatank44 yeah pretty much. It's hard for me in the first day but by the second it's easy sailing lol

[AhGojira]

If I drink a lot of coffee every day for a while, then yes there is a physical dependence. It's not an compelling addiction like cigarette smoking where you really want/need one, it just leads to mild headaches if you've consuming too much caffeine regularly and then stop for like 2 days... On the third day the light headache will be gone and will not return... That cleared up, no when I feel like drinking coffee it's because I'm feeling a little groggy that morning and I like the taste of coffee so I think I'll have a few mugs. I could have tea but I'd prefer the taste of coffee that morning. I could skip both but it would be nice to have a hot cup of Joe...

[bryon]

Caffeine is addictive actually. I started drinking coffee when I was 13 . If I don't have at least two cups in the morning I will develope a very bad head ache. Some will argue that it's a psychological dependency... Tell that to an alcoholic that has tremors if they don't get a drink..

[Ephemera1]

I've heard you can become quite reliant on it but 2 cups is pushing it no?

[bryon]

Two cups is just a start for me. i usually drink between 8 and 10 cups per day.

[Ephemera1]

Dood that can't be healthy

[bryon]

Neither is my 37 year habit of smoking , but my Dr told me just under 6 months ago that I have pretty healthy lungs for a guy my age. I don't listen to what fads tell me will kill me any more than what they say will extend my life. Worry kills a crap load more than a cup of coffee ever will

[Ephemera1]

I see what you're saying. Some shit just isn't worth stressing over.

[bryon]

Professional medicine says stress kills far more people than a bad habit. ( heart attacks ) . Life will be what it will be. Either live what you have happily or suffer through it with worry. And I like to laugh and have a good time. Death will come when it's my turn , I hope it will share a good smoke and a cup before the journey begins

[JRICHARDS1996]

Essentially it is a negative. There is no positive feeling or real change that a cup of coffee entails. Rather, coffee is addictive, and you drink it to pacify the feeling you get when you have not had coffee in a while. The "feeling" comes from the relief of no longer having to live with out it.

[soulbabe]

im not a fan of hot coffee so i always end up putting ice in it and depending on what kind of coffee it is it tastes good sometimes i drink normal coffee or i drink something strange like today i drank blueberry muffin coffee tho my boyfriend says he is a coffee addict

[rjroy3]

Most people obsessed with it got addicted early on as part of their morning. I dont know anyone that falls outside of that category. So grow to love the taste of it, others grow to "need" it to function.

[BlueEyedHipsta]

I hardly ever drink coffee, but when I want to I'm usually tired and prepared to down a bottle of water afterwards so I dotn get the shakes.

[Rissyanne]

I love a good cup of coffee... especially in the morning when I have come back from the gym and taken my shower.

[kittykatbrat]

I am addicted to coffee and use it mostly as an awakener for work, exercise and dates.

[baepink]

I love the warmness of it, it wakes me up. its tastes good.

[Puppylove94]

I just love the taste and the smell. I drink decaf sometimes so it's not the caffeine that makes me love it

[Triss]

I drink coffee but I am not addicted to it. I just drink it when I go to Caffè never home even tho all my family does.

[ChromAzonyx108]

I suppose it's like any craving
I'm more of a tea person myself but sometimes I like to mix it up with coffee

[akadatank44]

I'm not addicted to it. I can go with or without it. I do enjoy drinking it

[BernieforLife16]

When I'm tired, I want coffee. But I'm fine with coffee anytime of day as long as it has milk, cream and sugar.

[PlzJustDie]

It makes me less tired, and at the same time relaxes me mentally. I'm kinda addicted to it tbh.

[babeeeone]

I just like the taste of it. I'm not addicted by any means

[Jan1ssary_]

I am addicted, can't hit to gym without drinking a coffee D;

[bbch25]

It warms my frozen heart.

[bbch25]

All honesty, i don't like coffee. I get the shakes from it (I have crazy high energy levels at all times). So hot chocolate warms my frozen heart.

[Ephemera1]

So you lied to me

[bbch25]

Well, when I do drink coffee that's why... so it wasn't a lie!

[Ephemera1]

But you don't "feel" like drinking coffee

[bbch25]

Some days I just do. And that is the truth. I can't because I will basically start seizing I shake so much.
But those days I just feel like it. It's because I literally feel cold on the inside and it warms me all up.

[sailorjupiter]

it makes me alert, love it

[Anonymous]

Because if I could marry a cup of joe I would. I FUKEN LOOOVVEEE coffee

[anonman32]

[Omar5881]
