Eli5 Effects of coffee

756 views

Up until a few years ago I never really drank coffee, I started and really enjoy the taste. But I never really get a ‘rush’ or ‘kick’ from it.
I can drink a coffee at 8pm and sleep fine during the night.
Other people tell me that they can’t drink a coffee past 3 in the afternoon as they won’t sleep that night.
I never get a buzz from it either, I’m currently drinking super strong coffee with a ‘high caffeine content’ but I don’t feel it does anything to me other than satisfy my taste buds
Why is this?
(I never drink energy drinks or anything else with caffeine in either)

I’ve heard it said before that people with ADD/ADHD react differently to caffeine than those without, and that it often had the opposite affect.

I’ve not spent a while lot of time researching this but I’ve found anecdotes online that make me think there may be some validity.

But I can’t explain anything. Sorry.
