I read someone elses question on the "Affects of Caffeine". I recently quit smoking, but I am still a very big coffee drinker. I've noticed that now when I drink my coffee, I tend to get very agitated, uptight and tense. My question to you, would be can nicotine draw caffeine out of a bodies system, or lesson the affects of caffeine on the body? I have not intentions of going back to smoking, but I am puzzled by the caffeine situation I am having now. I only seem to be totally strung out and uptight, and almost inraged after two cups of coffee, whereas before I could drink up to 2 pots if I wanted to.

Nicotine and caffeine are both stimulants. Maybe by using both (presumably throughout the day) you were keeping your body constantly a little buzzed. Without the cigarettes in between the coffee, you might just be noticing the highs and lows of caffeine when you drink it and as it wears off. Try decaf?
