Caffeine -- the substance many people need to start their day. Whether it's in the form of coffee, Mountain Dew, or the caffeine patch [I wish ;_;], they have to have their cuppa to start the day.

Do you need caffeine to start your day? Do you love the hyperness it gives you? Can you not stand to be around caffeinated people?

Discuss.

Caffeine doesn't concern me in any way, and even without caffeine I'm still quite hyper sometimes anyways! :P I do consume some coffee from time to time, but very rarely. :\

Caffeine... I can't even spell the word without a spell checker xD

Anyway, I don't need it. But I guess I like drinking carbonated, caffeine-filled sodas, but not so much. I don't drink it everyday... Maybe a can a month. And I don't really get hyper by it... Nor do my friends. Nor does anyone I know. I've never seen anyone hyper because of caffeine. Chocolate, yes. But not caffeine. Besides, my friends are always hyper. Maybe that's why O_o

No, I don't need caffiene. Infact I don't even drink it, only on rare occasions. :x

And Caffiene actually has the opposite affect on me, it makes me even more tired than more awake. o_o

I hate coffee and energy drinks, so most of my caffeine comes from drinking Vanilla Coke every now and then. Overall I keep away from caffeine as a whole...I prefer fruit juice over caffinated drinks. Better for you and taste more natural too

Do I like it? To be honest, most caffeinated drinks bother me, so not really. I hardly have it at all. :/

I don't need it at all. I don't need the energy either. I usually get a decent amount of sleep, and I'm alert enough in the mornings, even if I didn't get sleep.

Not really, I almost never drink something with caffeine. When I do, it's not that much. I don't really like the taste of caffinated drinks.

I have a Coca-Cola each day, but definately not first thing in the morning. XD; It's usually after school. And I absolutely hate coffee. Some people I know from school drink it first thing in the morning, and they go absolutely crazy. o_o; I don't need caffeine to wake me up.

I only like caffeine if it's in soft drinks or tea, I can't stand coffee, or anything related to it, like cappuchino etc. or whatever, but no, I don't really have a 'need' for it as of such, I can easily get on without it.

I used to drink alot of mountain dew, until I found out it lowers sperm count, and I kninda wanna have children when I'm older...

And startbucks coffee, which I just found out has nearly 2 times as much caffeine as any other regular cup of coffee, so yeah, I kinda need caffeine.

It really depends on the amount of sleep I get the previous night. About 25% of the time will I need a cup of coffee to really get me going. I do like caffeine in coffee, I just don't need it everyday.

Well, I don't "like" or "need" caffeine.
But it has a pretty nice effect if you need to stay up longer than you actually could without it, which I made use of quite a few times. XD

I so need it, lol. I had quite a few cups of coffee this morning as I couldn't stay awake during college. I have this bad habit of sometimes sleeping only about 4 hours per night, which is tough when I have to go to college the next morning. The caffeine really helps though.

I can't stand the taste of coffee... so that's totally out of the question of what I drink. Instead, I always have to have a glass of water when I wake up, because I'm weird like that. It actually makes me feel a lot better and more awake than when I drink anything with caffeine in it.

Any other time, I'd also much rather have Sprite or lemonade over something like Coke or Dr. Pepper. The only drink with caffeine that I absolutely must have whenever I can is sweet tea--deprive me of that and someone gets hurt. XD

I don't "need" caffeine - in fact, caffeine usually either doesn't do anything for me, or causes me to become sleepy. Though there's one soda in which the caffeine might actually work for me, but I use that only when I think I need a little extra boost to get through another class...which isn't often, thankfully. I'd rather not become dependent on caffeine just to be able to do things like wake up properly.

Otherwise, it's mostly "want". Considering that my main source of caffeine is soda (since I don't drink things like coffee), it's not even the caffeine I'm really going for, but the taste of the soda instead. I might not like going without those for a long period of time, but I can do so if need be.

I practically live on caffeine. There is hardly a moment I don't need it. I'm drinking a Coke right now, no joke! I went three days without a drink and I practically died.

If I have Coke before 10 in the morning, it makes me feel sick. And I don't care for coffee or tea or anything, so I don't have caffeine in the mornings. :x

I'll usually have a Coke at lunch, but I'm never less tired because of it. Caffeine doesn't do anything noticeable for me, so it doesn't make much of a difference anyway.

Caffine helps me alot, against what is usual with people, it actully calms me down when I'm frustrated, as does sugar.

It does depend on how I'm feeling, but I don't usually have caffeine in the morning. Maybe if I need some waking up I'll drink it.
