Or if you drink 50 cups of coffee you'd be Voltaire. I agree that we need to reject all our biases and approach problems from the perspective of the subject.
As with: What is the context of this issue? Why are you using tobacco? What are your stressors, and what activities are you using to restore an equilibrium?
A little of something can be just as harmful as a lot; a little coffee given to some in a hyperthyroid state can kill them. Given to a hypothyroid person, more of a stimulant would be needed.
I read about Voltaire's coffee habits, its interesting, I couldn't fathom drinking that many in a day though it worked for him and supported him on his journey.
Im trying to say can someone just enjoy something without it being a problem or an issue, I'm talking about people who enjoy the smell of unburnt tobacco, the feeling of tobacco in their fingers, the sound of a lighter igniting, the bright flame, the sensation of inhaling tobacco, the flavour, the change of state to bring on novel thoughts, a time of contemplation outside looking at the sky, the art of rolling a cigarette, the different types of tobacco. These people don't walk down the street smoking or driving in the car or rush out on their lunch break to suck one down, its a special time out. Something that isn't habitual but spontaneous.
Are there cases of people dying from small amounts of coffee?
