I recently went on a break from caffeine, and while the withdrawals weren't bad (I was only ever a one coffee in the morning person), I have since noticed how INCREDIBLY sensitive I am to caffeine. Now that I have no tolerance, having one coffee at any point during the day will completely ruin my sleep for that night (from ~7h down to ~4h with lots of awake time).

I'm at a point now where I don't think coffee is for me - I love the taste and the effect but not at the expense of a good night's sleep!

I’m the same way, also very sensitive.

I never thought a morning coffee can affect sleep. But once I quit, I realized just how much it does.

Now I use coffee if I wanna stay up late on a Friday night - a cappuccino in the morning makes sure I’m wide awake until midnight.
