Quit drinking all caffeine for two weeks to get rid of any tolerance.

Caffeine is borrowing tiredness from tomorrow.

    I've never noticed any effect after not having it for several months and I drink black tea as dark as possible (just short of using multiple teabags in a cup xD). Do you really notice that you're more awake, like beyond placebo?

    I didn't know it had caffeine until recently, so I think I just never got the placebo effect of "this should keep me awake" and apparently the residual effect, at least on me, is unnoticably small. When I learned, I avoided it for a while during the evening (even though I didn't remember any effect, I wondered if maybe I sleep worse and just didn't know to attribute it?), but I've since tried it out and there's really no difference even if I drink it straight before going to sleep
