Drink no caffeine for a week, and tell us how you feel.
I mean i got no buzz from coffee, so I kept drinking it for a year. And when I tried to quit it was like a month of hell.
I am the complete opposite - caffeine has an intense and horrible effect on me. Even the tiniest bit, like a sip of coffee or a small cup of green tea, makes my heart feel like it will burst from my chest and my thoughts begin to swirl.
If we combine our powers we can make a normal guy.
One time I poisoned a love-interest when I made her lasagna from scratch to impress her... I put a small amount of espresso in the red sauce for earthiness like I always do, and that's when I found out she has a severe sensitivity to coffee!! Ooops. We're not together lol

It's normal to get sleepy right after drinking coffee. The caffeine doesn't work right away.
For me is a combo, caffeine, even from a cup or green tea, makes me have sleep issues, but the anesthesics at the dentist or in surgeries take more time than usual to take effect. They did give me once, before a hand surgery, a intravenous shot of something and I was instant drunk and started laughing. It was so very odd!
I find your comment very interesting! Because I've always had issues with freezing at the dentist. All my life, dentists have been shocked when I tell them the freezing isn't working. They bonk a nerve just to prove I'm lying... then when I squeal they believe me. I've finally reached the "I'm not playing" phase of my life and I just flat out tell them "you're going to need 3x the regular freezing, this is my life" and that seems to have ended the constant battle of disbelief. Also even when they end up going ham with the needle and half my face feels paralyzed, it's all fine like 30 minutes after getting out of the chair. The entire freeze effect dissipates so quickly for me. I've had to be re-frozen many times mid-filling!
My doctors were never shocked, I suppose they‘ve seen many different situations. I did learn to tell them beforehand that these things happen to me, so they might take it in consideration. Bodies are so different, it is normal to react different to substances and foods. But with age we hopefully are more in tune with our bodies and start to learn how it works.
Same for me and I rarely drink coffee. It's weird though, sometimes I really feel a single cup of coffee and sometimes I can drink multiple double espressos and feel nothing. I have been diagnosed with ADHD since age 6 though, so that might be why.
