SSRIs increase my coffee tollerance

Posted by linkadge on December 5, 2004, at 16:06:30

If I don't take SSRI's I can drink a max of maybe 3 cups of coffee a day. When taking an SSRI's. It is not unusualy for me to drink 10+ cups of coffee a day.

My heart rate doesn't even increase.

Well they do treat anxiety. Do you feel any better on the combination over coffee alone?

I tried drinking some tea. It feels good, a few twitches and all that, but within a few cups my heart rate was going nuts over the slightest thing.

Really, I had 10 cups of coffee today, and my BP was 110/62. Perhaps I need more adrenaline in my system. Maybe thats why I am so depressed.

I'd love to drink that much coffee. If I don't drink any I don't get that lift, energy. Usualy I drink about 3 cups a day. Maybe more. Love the buzz. I don't know about coffee tolerance, maybe if the SSRIs cause drowsyness.
