It's a drug, it effects your behaviour/mood, you must have done some weird shit on it

I tried decaf Coke Zero and I have to admit it makes me miserable. Can't work out if it's my head expecting the caffein high and not recieving it, or if it's something in the chemicals itself that acts as a depressant

    Isn't caffeine in soda added in a relatively pure form in the end of the proces, unlike coffee/tea/cacao where it part of the 'source' of the end product? I don't think they have to substitute the caffeine for some decaf ingredient. If that's true, that would rule out your second guess.

    Huh - that's actually good to hear. I thought they had to do the same creepy stuff they do to coffee to decaffeinate it, rather than just not adding it at all.

    In that case I guess I've just got to train my brain to not immediately expect the caffeine high when drinking it
