I cannot drink coffee or eat chocolate after about 2pm and fall asleep before midnight.
In the mornings, I can enjoy several cups of the same brand of coffee, then return to my recliner to read or watch the news, and fall right off to sleep for an hour or two.
Is it physiological or psychological, or both. Probably fewer things running through my mind in the AM.
Does coffee bother you the same way? Does worry keep you up or can you put it out of your mind when you turn out the light? I could when I was 40 years younger, and got more exercise.

Coffee gives me acid reflux, so I have sugar free energy drinks but not after about 2.
I grew up in a family that could drink coffee at basically bedtime so maybe I am adopted LOL.

I worked in the bomb dump when I was in the military. I was usually the first guy there to relieve security and get the coffee brewing. We had two of those large silver coffee brewers you see at big social events.
Half of my job consisted of paperwork. My hand shook so bad when I was writing, it looked like a chart recorder documenting a major seismic event. It got to the point I was embarrassed by it but it never kept me from falling asleep. I still drink coffee all hours of the day. Usually with no issues.

I would normally say I am mostly un-effected by coffee I drink about a half a pot most days , sometimes a pot. pot being 14x6oz=84oz or about 2/3 of a gallon but there sure have been times
I have gone grocery shopping with my wife on Friday evening after work , was falling asleep driving so I grabbed a red eye which is drip coffee with 4 shots of expresso , guess who was exhausted at 12pm but mind could not stop running.
nothing wrong with stopping drinking coffee at noon or 2pm I mean you want to switch to beer at some point and people judge you when you switch at 09:30

I love coffee, but can't drink it as I have afib. Caffeine makes my heart go wild. I don't like the taste of decaf. I can't drink anything after 8:00PM or I will be up every couple hours to pee.
Got a gift from my brother. It was 3 AA batteries with a note that said, Gift Not Included.

I start my day with coffee and end it with coffee. Very common for me to bring my cup of coffee to bed and sip it till I fall asleep.
