Coffee: There are conflicting reports, some saying it is healthy and others not. If you drink coffee regularly, have you tried to go a day without it? And how did that feel?

Coffee is a bit strong for me. I get like anxious and have anxiety attacks.

It is a drug.

Have you tried tea? Like a black or Thai tea? Still has a bit of caffeine but great flavor.

You are probably not alone in feeling that way from coffee, although I did not have that experience, but I think I have heard others say the same. I do have tea, and for awhile I had been drinking coffee in the morning, and drinking tea in the afternoon. Today I skipped the coffee, and had one serving of tea on ice in the afternoon. But I wonder if a person would be healthier with tea or without tea.

My grandfather stopped drinking coffee because it upset his stomach, but he could still drink tea.

Are you able to drink tea without it triggering anxiety? But coffee has triggered anxiety?

Yep. Coffee triggers anxiety, yea does not.

But if I like used 10 yea bags, and made a really strong tea, it would trigger anxiety. It’s just the less caffeine.

If I drink water downed coffee it’s fine.
