Some people are sensitive to the effects of coffee because of so much caffine. They may not like feeling jittery. Others drink so much coffee it never seems to be enough. I drink coffee but am not like this. I like it past mid-day to stay awake somewhat longer.

Those migraines can really hurt people. I know because I had them when I was a kid. My cousin as bad problems with migraines ever since childhood. They really can't find out whats exactly wrong with her but at times she needs help with her kids from family members.

I have to admitt I drink coffee from the time I wake up until I go to bed. The only time I am not drinking coffee is with dinner. For some reason I need something cold when I am eating dinner. My husband is the sameway. I don't understand the way other people talk about it keeping it up at night or making them jittery. It doesn't effect me like that at all.

Thats good it doesn't make you jittery. Thats the side effect people don't like. I really don't get jittery unless I drink too much and I don't drink that much unless I'm really tired and have to work which stinks. I don't mind working but not like that.

Not me. I don't drink coffee and try to avoid caffiene. Years ago I tried thoose dessert coffee drinks and those were pretty good.
I would have a coffee if I had a bad migraine and nothing else around to have. They put caffiene into Excederin Migraine to make it more effective. I'd prefer a massage to that though.
A lot of people get that mid-day slump and like a cup around then.

I drink homemade cappuccinos. (and, contrary to popular belief one cappa has about the same caffeine as a cup of coffee.) Ok- anywho...I have 2-3 of them a day...so, yeah, I would say I am a compulsive coffee drinker. 
I try to eat healthy 80-90% of the time- but my cappuccinos are the one thing I don't plan to give up.

I like to drink coffee the morning, to start my day, before taking a bath. Another cup in mid-day during office. And another cup during dinner. It used to be an added spice to my meals at night...

The only reason why I drink coffee is because I absolutely love the taste of it. If the caffeine has any ill effects on me, then I know to change the way the coffee is prepared. I'm used to having my coffee prepared a certain way that doesn't make me jumpy. My cafe here in my hometown knows precisely how I like my coffee.

I drink coffee from the time I wake up until I go to bed. I don't drink it for the caffiene, really, I just like the taste. I'm one of the very few people I know who is like that, but oh well, to each their own, right?
