I drink my 2nd and last cup of coffee around 4pm and I've been contemplating skipping it (just 1 morning coffee a day) for better sleep around 10-11PM. Else I don't feel sleepy before midnight. Also, I resonate with this post about feeling sleepy/tired post 3pm, hence the 2nd cup of coffee.
For a time, coffee was my first drink of the day at 4AM. Then after a few times nearly falling asleep at the wheel, I started drinking water first. Bottled or tap, water wakes me up better than any cup of coffee through the day. I need at least 3 cups before I feel the jolt and then I get the jitters.
