My resting heart is averaging 150 bpm. could that just be coffee?

Tachycardia: It's not unusual for young people to be able to generate heart rates to the level you report. This can be exacerbated by stimuli like caffeine found in coffee. Regardless, you shouldn't have a sustained heart rate at that level all day long. If this is the case, I would seek a formal evaluation.
