» Feature Writer Simon Davies - caffeine causes anxiety

In response to caffeine posted by kaos42:


Thats interesting. I suppose that may have something to do with the dopamine effect. Maybe we begin to depend on the good feelings caffeine induces and that keep our anxiety levels low.

I must admit that caffeine does not affect my sleeping patterns. I can have a cup of strong coffee an hour before going to bed and not have any trouble sleeping - although maybe I have more vivid dreams. Maybe my adenosine enzymes work too well!
