You need to change your sleeping habit if you want to be awake at night. Coffee helps in keeping you awake, but if you don't have enough sleep you would still get sleepy and more coffee only causes your heart to palpitate. Try sleeping in the daytime as much as you can so your body won't have to tell you that you already need sleep at night.

That's true. two nights ago my blood pressure went up. lols. I guess that's only shows that coffee is bad for me. I also want to stop smoking because its also one of the reason why my blood pressure goes up.
But I will try to drink hot tea instead.
Lets see what is the effect.

I guess that's true. As I know someone who also get sleepy when he drinks coffee.
But in general most people who drink coffee do stay awake whole night.
But in my case if I want to live I don't want to drink coffee. lols
Because coffee will just going to kill me because of my hypertension.

It would usually keep you awake but it depends on what kind of coffee.If you want to stay awake,I suggest that you take espresso or any strong kind of coffee.

I decided to stop drinking coffee. Its not good for my heart. lols. I got my blood pressure up. lols.
I'm trying to drink hot tea instead. Although before I have history that if I drink hot tea I end up having a stomach upset but lets see.
I have no choice. I want to start trading in forex again and so far this week I only earn 2 dollars. lols. But my plan is to earn 20 dollars a week then 200 dollars then 2000 dollars a week.

I guess that's good and bad at the same time. Its good because its help you awake. Its bad because the reason why we are sleepy is that we are tired and the best way to feel recharge is to go to sleep.
So that mean we are preventing our self to regenerate if we don't sleep when we are sleepy already.

Yes, you are right. The coffee contains caffeine which will awake us.
Before, I drank too much of coffee within a day. During the night, not only I couldn't sleep, but my heart beats was extremely fast. It was continuously for few nights.
Later, I found an article in my local newspaper about poisoning by caffeine.
Then I understood that I was poisoned by caffeine during those few days.
From now, I shall drink coffee with a good volume to slow down my aging but not disordering sleeping hours.

I guess that's what happen to me. Although I don't have those long continues palpitation. Its only last about an hour or two. Maybe because I have some maintenance medication. But still caffeine is also bad for your health if you have hypertension.

Coffee was made to make people stay awake. If you're someone who doesn't regularly take coffee then I think it could help you stay awake. But if you haven't slept all day and you plan to stay up all night, I'm not sure if a cup of coffee would be able to help you out.

I did try icetea. lols. Well actually I did try to drink coffee but my blood pressure went up. lols. I guess its because of the caffeine. But then I decide to try to use hot tea also.
I will try to experiment until I find the best drink to keep me awake at night.

Really? cold coffee? that's good. I really don't like to drink that is something hot anyway. Its summer and its so hot. And our bills just double up because of the aircon.
Cold coffee will not only help me cool down its also going to help me awake. cool. lols.
