How many cups of coffee per day

**GanglyLamb** · 03-02-2003

I really dont see why you people wanna quit drinking coffee its not like its some drug like sigarets or marihuana or hasj or whatever.
I just dont get it why some of you act like coffee is ooooh soo bad.

I want to quit because I get a big high, but then I crash and its just the opposite effect (I get really low and tired and I want to sleep after school instead of doing my work).

Coffee is just as addictive as many other hard drugs fyi.

Coffee as addictive maybe but not as effective as a hard-drug (btw marihuana isnt a hard drug). I mean its not like this=>

Drink a cup of coffee

KO

I'm just curious but whos parents over here (when your a kid) forbid you to drink coffee.
And if your a parent, do you forbid your kids to drink coffee under a certain age ?

Because ive got a slight feeling that (IMO although) lots of those who are against coffee are raised with the principle
=>coffee is bad<=

I love coffee, my brain doesn't work well without it.

**~~Silvercord~~** · 03-02-2003

coffee is bad because it is very addictive. When I dont' have it, I get headaches, and I get groggy and cannot concentrate on anything. As beege said, my brain does not work without coffee. It's hard to withdraw from it. I'm drinking only 1-2 per day, and I don't plan on having more than that.

EDIT: and yes my parents forbade me to drink it because they told me it's bad, but they couldn't really stop me because they are both big time coffee drinkers. My dad says he doesn't even get a high off of it anymore, it just makes him 'not go low'.

Drinking coffee is like taking drugs, Really...

I really like a cup of coffee to go with morning lectures. But after I have had one I lose any inclination to drink it till the next day. And certainly not in the evening. Then I don't sleep too well. Now tea on the other, I drink plenty of that.

No coffee here.

**LouDu** · 03-02-2003

agrees with shadow

So could it be that the statement coffee is bad is being rown in ur youth.
When i was young nobody told me dont drink coffee. When i wanted coffee then i took it.
And getting high of coffee.... dont believe that.
The only time i got high of coffee was when we were sailing to the UK and there was a storm on sea. But ive never felt bad after a cup of coffee.

> Drinking coffee is like taking drugs, Really...

And that's why people drink it - it's got caffeine in it, which is a drug. So? It's a chemical. I eat things because the chemicals in it make it taste good. I drink caffeinated beverages because they wake me up a little and they taste good, as well.

Anyone tried those bottled Frappucino things? The caramel ones are great (except really expensive)
