I have like six cups in the morning, I'm for sure an addict. But I'm on so many meds I need it to even just wake up. But I should just switch over to like black tea, with the less caffeine.
Have you ever tried taking l-theanine? It occurs naturally in green tea but I get it as a higher dose in capsules. It's an anxiolytic that synergizes well with caffeine, making you much less jittery and more focused. Caffeine gave me panic attacks, but I couldn't function without it, so l-theanine was my miracle supplement for most of college. I still use it when I'm anxious.
But it might be counterproductive to be on an anxiety med that makes you that sleepy.
Helps me sleep at night though. I'm actually on two different meds atm that both handle anxiety. But yeah 6 is a lot but I've been drinking coffee since I was in my 20s and now I'm 30 something so my tolerance is pretty high.

I should really stop drinking coffee because of my anxiety but I love it dearly.
