    Mom loves the smell but can't stand the taste.

    You must have metabolized stuff faster because it should take longer to get withdraw headaches.

    I did used to have a metabolism close to the speed of light. I could and did eat anything I liked and still struggled to maintain my weight at 110 lbs. It's slowed down quite a bit with advancing age. I drink tea now and don't get a caffeine headache anymore.

    Growing up In NYC when you ordered a regular coffee it was served as coffee with cream and two sugars

    I was never a big drinker of coffee. I'd make a 4 cup pot in the morning. It equates to about 2 1/2 to 3 mugs. I would have two in the morning, and one later in the day. Now I drink one mug in the morning and one when I get home from work.

    I know people who drink coffee all day. It doesn't really wake me up if I just keep drinking coffee all day.

    Caffeine withdrawal can give people a headache.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    With all my sleep and seasonal issues, I'd be a hibernating bear without caffeine. I have a cup a day normally and I'd have tea or one soda later. I normally don't get headaches unless I have nothing for a day and 1/2 or more. If I nap, it's longer.
