Does coffee make anybody else feel weird? I almost feel disoriented and confused after drinking coffee. Can anybody relate?

It's likely the caffeine content. This may be an indicator that you need your adrenals tested (4 point saliva test), or you just may be sensitive to stimulants right now. I would suggest you find a decaf coffee to try to see if that helps any.

Since my adrenals crashed, I've had to avoid ALL caffeine and drink a coffee substitute. Not fun, but at least my adrenals can heal!

Yes, definetely....but I actually like to drink coffee with my herbals.....might seem odd but here is why...

it increases heart rate so I like the heart pumping the herbal fluids everywhere and stuff.

^^ i moreso agree with travelor.....those adrenals need that vitamin c! protein! & salt too.. All of which can be gotten with a good diet.

Maybe switch to Green Tea? It has the EGCG that is good for healing lyme and a little naturally occurring caffeine. I use Rishi brand which is very pure- no contaminants.

I haven't had coffee in over six months. Last Tuesday I was so tired that I had 1/4 of a cup. I make organic coffee for my husband every morning. The torture of having to smell it! Anyway that tiny little cup made me feel absolutely irritated, anxious, and weird all day. I am happy to never have coffee again.

Seriously, switch to green tea. I never liked green tea until I tried Rishi.
