WHY DOES CAFFEINE MAKE YOU HYPER?!


Question: WHY DOES CAFFEINE MAKE YOU HYPER?
I felt all tired and sh*t, and depressed, but now all of sudden I've been drinking 2 cups of coffee, soon like 3 - 4 more, and 2 cups of green tea x) i know it's a stimulant and stuff but..I want a deeper explanation!! x)

Answers:

It blocks the adenosine receptor in the brain. Adenosine acts like a thermostat for the release of the stimulatory neurotransmitter, norepinephrine. So caffeine itself is not a stimulant, rather it increases the availability of your own natural stimulant. This is why individual response to caffeine is so variable. We all have different amounts of norepinephrine to be made available.

I know for one thing, it raises your blood pressure, because if you get your pressure checked after even one cup, it is higher than usual.
If you feel tired, maybe it would be safer to get more sleep, instead of jump-starting your heart and causing it to race.

Caffeine has a lot of sugar in it. Sugar makes you really excited and then you go into a crash meaning you are really tired and not as hyper. Soda's usually makes you hyper because it has caffieneZ
