Can caffeine make you high?
Caffeine is found in tea, coffee, cocoa, cola, and energy drinks. It stimulates the central nervous system, muscles, and heart so that you feel high when you take products that have it. High intake causes insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, high blood pressure, and frequent visits to the washroom.
Why do I get stoned from coffee?
Does coffee make you higher? You are likely to feel stoned when you take too strong and more than the required amount of coffee. This is due to the high levels of caffeine in coffee drinks. Caffeine increases alertness by blocking the effects of adenosine, a chemical in the brain that makes one feel tired. Taking too much caffeine can make you feel so excited and jumpy. It would also cause a fast, abnormal heartbeat, irritability, restlessness, and nervousness. You can also feel so dizzy to the extent of passing out. Some people, however, mix caffeine with drugs such as marijuana which is very dangerous health-wise. A combination of the two has effects such as memory loss, high blood pressure, and prolonged ‘drunkenness.’

When the caffeine effects begin to kick in, you feel so shaky that you can’t be stable, you become dizzy as your concentration drifts away, your heart begins to pound uncontrollably fast, and you also sweat a lot. These effects are very severe and can lead to dehydration, so it is advisable to take lots of water.
Conclusion
Coffee, like other caffeine-related drinks and beverages, can be good or bad depending on how you use it. You will be more focused and refreshed when you take caffeine in small doses. On the other hand, too much caffeine can make you feel anxious and deprive you of sleep because it creates alertness. This can make you feel so fatigued.
Pregnant women, children, and people with conditions such as high blood pressure would be in for it if they consumed more than enough caffeine. Therefore, to maintain a healthy lifestyle, you should reduce caffeine intake. Get enough sleep, exercise regularly, and above all, always stay hydrated.
