How does caffeine affect you?

I even had done a video 12 months ago explaining that Caffeine doesn't effect me at all. I still love my coffee thou.

I do use nootropics and natural "cognitive enhancers" like L-theanine, N-acetyl cysteine, creatine, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl choline, methyl B12, methyl folate, NAD+, probiotics, etc.

Until now I've tried to tame my brain my trying to calm it down. Everything from alcohol to baths, relaxation tapes to herbal teas. I got to think that maybe the problem isn't the non stop whirring of a problem machine solving everything it sees, but the fact that I can't focus and shift my attention, leading to a feeling of being overwhelmed (yeah, I know this sounds like ADHD, but anyway). I was wondering if nootropics might help by channeling my thinking, and perhaps trying turn down the tempo was the wrong approach. How has your experience been with all these?

I do not drink coffee caffeine makes me hyper the drink is just too bitter.

Caffeine keeps me away at night, so I never drink it after 5p. Booze makes me sleepy so I never drink it before 5p. They are perfectly complementary.
