..."drinking"?
lol--that will probably be me next week.
Well, go big or stay home... 
Last two days? Baileys in the morning coffee. And that ain't usually me.
Yeah. I'm more burned-out than I've ever been on the continuous tidal wave of insanity flooding over us. As I said on another thread recently, I don't know how much more I can take.

Besides needing more coffee, I find myself only wanting to eat my comfort foods, lately. Pizza and ice cream, and throw in a few Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! I may have to do additions to my coffee, too, if my anxiety level stays this high.

Going after Pizza in about 30 minutes, may have a surprise in the bag. LOL

This too shall pass.
I’m really burned out on all of it, too. Only been checking in here once or twice a day, some days not even that much. Need a break from the insanity and sheer evil that is taking over our country.

Sigh.... Coffeeeeeee, he says longingly with tears running down his cheek
Got permanent AFIB from heart surgery over 15 years ago, and ANY form of caffeine sets it off enough to knock me on my butt.
I'm an IT guy and spent 30+ years drinking at least two pots of the real stuff by myself every day. Topped that off with Cokes and such.
Haven't had a coke or real coffee or real ice tea or even chocolate for most of the 15+ years. The unleaded stuff just isn't worth drinking.
With all the turmoil in this build up I've missed coffee more than I would have missed TP if we weren't prepared.

...you know, after reading this thread, I feel a lot better!
I've been getting concerned about the state of things myself, and was starting to think myself weak. But the good news is that much more experienced folks than I are are every bit as concerned, and maybe even more so, so I'm doing better than I thought, thank God!

If this is the effect on people after moderate Doom, just imagine all the anxiety ridden crazy people after a complete societal breakdown.
I feel like we've turned a corner of some type. I don't think we will return to anything near "normal." Normal is gone and there appears to be no stability in the future. One thing after another....

thats when you add the chocolate to your coffee. if its after 5pm, a dash of brandy helps too.

goodness! i can not imagine anyone having a problem adding a snickjers bar to ones cup of coffee in the morning while watching the end of the world. i thought it was a TB requirement. caffeine, chocolate, sugar, whats not to love? think of it as enhancement

I manage the vitamin department at a large health food store and have been selling lots of elderberry, vitamin C, zinc, etc. as you might imagine. After the initial panic wore off, my sales shifted to every type of natural remedy for anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, and depression. I work with customers to find the right supplement or product for their needs. It has become common of late to recommend prayer and a shot of whiskey (not necessarily in that order).
Besides I cannot think of a better way to get in a serving of fruit (coffee, wine, chocolate) and grains (beer, many spirits) and even a vegetable (vodka, traditionally) than to drink them

There are just some things you do not put in good fine black coffee to ruin the flavor. All of the above are fine separated, but not required. I am presently on my first 24 oz cup now mmmmmmmmmmm.

LOL! I had pizza for supper, and for dessert, I had Reese's Peanut Butter cups, then later, I had an Ice cream Snickers Bar! That was the only things I ate yesterday. Of course, I had a whole pot of coffee first thing, but with nothing added. That may change.......Yeah, I'm on a roll with healthy eating, too.
