Coffee makes me very jittery

[levistep]

I've only had one cup, but my hands are shaking as i'm typing this. I'm 6'3 205lbs and i can't even handle a cup of coffee (12oz) without shaking. Is this completely normal? Is this because i'm really sensitive to it since I haven't had barely any coffee in my life beforehand?

I'd like to think since my body is so pure any drug will have a very strong effect.

shitty coffee has that effect on anyone! go to a "good" shop and have a real cup of coffee. if they have a barista have them make you a redeye, coffee with one shot of espresso, now that will jack your ass up. i own a coffee shop and this is how i start every day. they should have fresh beans and grind them daily, no additives, that's what gives you the shakes and by all means stay away from decaf, that shit is poison!!!!!!!!!!

Sit back and enjoy...It's just your body is not used to the caffine. Use Tea, has just as much caffine but a much smoother ride

Yeah, join the club. It's a crappy addiction.

If you haven't had something before or very little of it, you're body is gonna be affected more.

Same here..........have had some terrible bouts with just 1-2 cups of coffee.

I try to limit myself to no more than half a cup these days.

I've never drank coffee , the smell alone is hard to take.

Going to grab my large Ice at Dunkin Donuts. Did I mention I can see the place from my living room window? Yeah, that tottaly helps.

Coffee does that to me also-but I have no problem slamming 2 Mt. Dews in the morning.

(Also had no problem getting off the Dew....probably a big part of how I lost 23ish pounds).

Down to about 10 cups per day,
Any less and I have monster headaches.
