Question 1

hello can caffeine cause anxiety and sweating symptoms if drunk to much?

Accepted Answer

Yes: This is a well-known side effect of caffeine. If you've been drinking a lot of caffeine however i would recommend to cut back on it slowly. If you stop it suddenly you are going to have to deal with about a few weeks worth of rather extremely uncomfortable headaches. Best wishes.

Question 2

she consumes massive amounts of soda (two liters at a time) plus she takes caffeine pills, all day long.. she is cold and clammy to touch sweats alot!?

Accepted Answer

Who is "she"?: Caffeine abuse is a medical condition, and is listed in the dsm-iv together with other forms of drug abuse.  Whoever "she" is, it sure sounds like this is a case of severe caffeine abuse.  Caffeine raises blood pressure and pulse, can produce anxiety, tremor and even agitation and psychotic features.  If this is a loved one or friend, strongly suggest medical evaluation, and tapering of caffeine.

Question 3

quit smoking & cut caffeine 2 weeks ago. have been fatigued, insomnia and mild night sweats (damp around head, neck, chest). related to abandoned vices?

Accepted Answer

Withdraw - tobacco: Stopping smoking involves a process of withdrawing.  Focus on things outside yourself.  Use gum or mints to replace the oral part of your habit.  B complex can be used to boost your nutritional needs.  Congratulations!  you are on your way to a safer and healthier life for you and your loved ones.  Check w/your doc to be sure this is what it is.

Question 4

can caffeine cause anexity?

Accepted Answer

Hmmm...: What do you mean by anxiety?  In my way of thinking, caffeine (espcially in normal amounts) as a drug does not have the pharmacological property of causing ANXIETY.  However, EXCESS caffeine usage in an individual can, by a different number of ways (i.e. too much as in Energy drinks, withdrawal as in cutting back or sudden cold turkey) cause jitteriness, nervoussness, shakiness, etc.

So we burn sugar more rapidly, and the low blood sugar actually further increases adrenaline and related chemicals (like dopamine) leading to a vicious cycle.
