Caffeine makes you feel alert because it blocks adenosine - a neurotransmitter that activates drowsiness and exhaustion. That is why caffeine often feels like a quick fix.
However, caffeine can cause serotonin depletion in the long run. When serotonin is low, there is a risk of mental health problems such as anxiety and depression.

Caffeine is no longer only found in coffee and tea. Caffeine can be found in sodas, coffee, tea, energy drinks, prescription drugs, painkillers, vitamins, and supplements.

Caffeine withdrawal can cause anxiety. Anxiety is common in those who choose to quit drinking caffeine or even gradually reducing their caffeine intake.
This is more true for those who depend on caffeine to function, such as a morning cup of coffee. Withdrawal symptoms can last for a week or two.

Not all caffeine is natural, such as caffeine found in sodas and energy drinks.
