but i can never sleep whenever i drink it. I usually am up till 2am every night coffee or no coffee. But when i do drink a cup, I am up till 4am still unable to sleep. I take nyquil sometimes..but i hate the taste. You might think im really weird...but coffee kinda help me quit smoking..although the two together is great combination. oh what to do ...what to do. My school doesnt have decaf for some reason...they prob do but i dont feel like searching the dining halls on campus. ARGG..im sitting here enjoying my large coffee as we speak
I laughed when i finished reading your post. Have you tried the NyQuil gel tabs? (No taste)
I loooove coffee too, and usually it doesn't keep me up, but I drink in moderation. What about trying to go down a size or not drink as much? If I feel like coffee in the evening I make myself a pot of decaf.
You may have to make a rule to not drink after a certain time or drink decaf like I do.
Try some decaf herbal tea at bedtime. I like Tension Tamer Extra or Sleepytime Extra by Celestial Seasonings.
Don't drink coffee past about noon and avoid other stimulants before bedtime, no mint, no sugar, no decongestants, obviously no Excedrin...It's also a good idea to not watch a lot of tv in the evening, it's better to read a book instead.
