    I mean. Yeah. Caffeine is a drug, albeit one whose use is not only normalized but practically required to function in modern society (and whose side effects are relatively mild maybe)

      There is literally no benefit to being addicted to caffeine. When you're addicted, drinking caffeine makes you feel like you have more energy because it makes you feel like garbage when you don't drink it. At no point does it actually do anything positive for you.

          I mean yeah, kinda. I like things which contain caffeine, but I almost treat it with the same respect I'd treat cocaine or something, even though it's not as addictive and not nearly as harmful. Just because I don't wanna deal with any kind of addiction lol
