    No, your experience is yours, others have other experiences. We don’t all have the same exact reaction to caffeine. Don’t project how things affect you on others.

      I understand, but coffee is amongst the most consumed things in the world, yet headaches from it is something I don’t really hear around, so it’s not completely wild or out of the blue to suggest a check-up. Something similar was happening to me with energy drinks 10+ years ago, which was related to my blood pressure.

        The headaches are not from coffee, they are from the caffeine withdrawal. Try drinking 5-7 cups of strong coffee per day 5 days a week for an extended time and I’m sure you’ll see some kind of withdrawal symptoms on Sundays.

          Oh, I thought caffeine is the active ingredient in coffee, and so you consume it, and talk about it, just like when people talk about weed, they talk about THC, even tho still saying weed, but okay.

          Anyway, I’ve done what you told me to do for half of my life, and like I said before - I have not noticed withdrawal symptoms whatsoever.

            Then you are exceptionally resistant. Congrats. Caffeine withdrawal is super common.

              I feel safe saying feeling no withdrawal from coffee isn’t exceptional, it’s borderline normal. From quick googling, only 10-20% actually have withdrawal symptoms that ruins your day. Up to 40-50% can have mild/noticeable effects, so it’s safe to say I’m majority, not exceptional or special.
