Hi this is me again Cocogrey. I am back again in order to share with you all my most challenging experience in life. It took me a lot of courage before I decided to expose it here.
Okay! let's start. By the way, this is a serious matter.
I experience nervous breakdown before. And to tell you honestly, this kind of illness is not easy to overcome. It almost made me lose my sanity. Fear is consuming my whole being and I couldn't stop it from spreading in every inch of my body.
I am so scared of everything, even just the sounds of the wind would drive me crazy. Aside from the overwhelming fear, this illness also made me so irritable. I don't want to be disturb and I get mad easily. Walking at at night brought so much fear in me because I also scared in the dark. The color of the darkness feels like it would just devour me anytime. Whenever the sun will go down and darkness will slowly cover the vastness of the sky, I will immediately lock myself in my room and never go out until morning.
This feeling is driving me crazy and so I decided to do some research and discovered that I am experiencing a nervous breakdown.
As we all know, nervous breakdown is a severe mental distress that would definitely make someone can't function well, especially in their daily lives. And yes, that really happened to me.
And the saddest part of this experience is, no one was there to support me and care for me. The people around me didn't care and even told me that I was just over reacting. It hurts a lot and from then on, I decided to just keep it to myself.
It all happened during year 2018. I was a worker at energy drink (Cobra) and that time, my job was so hard and tiring. I was assigned in sorting station.
At sorting station, we assort dirty bottles and remove all the trash inside from the bottle and wash it before we put it into the machine that also cleanse and sanitize the bottles before we filled it with the energy drinks.
My work back then was very hard.Of course, my sweats were inevitable. I sweat a lot and human as I am, I also get very thirsty and so I often take some energy drink. And almost drink energy drinks every day without paying attention to its side effects to my body.

I discovered 3 out 9 effects of drinking lot of drinks that has more caffeine.
ANXIETY
I have observed that whenever I drink too much caffeine, I can't stop myself from being anxious all the time. I don't even know where my anxiety is all coming from. Feeling this emotion is not easy, especially that I can control my thoughts and my self whenever I am worried or anxious.
INSOMNIA
I always drink coffee or energy drink whenever I have a lot of things to do and stop myself from falling asleep. And I must say that it works always. Coffee became my buddy during rush hours and last minute.
According to the study, too much intake of caffeine will really affects your sleeping pattern. At the same time, they also discovered that it might even decrease your total sleeping time, particularly in the older ones.
BLOOD PRESSURE
Based on the research, caffeine doesn't contribute to the increasing risk of heart disease or stroke in a lot of people. Nevertheless, the result stated that it somehow has an influence to the sudden raise of blood pressure of a person. This is because of the stimulatory effect on our nervous system.
This is what i discovered. I have realized the danger that caffeine can give to our ibody.
My article is not meant to discredit the company who makes energy drinks. What i am trying to tell is just be responsible enough. So that you don't get sick and others can't misinterpret the effect of this energy drinks. Many people are not immediately affected by caffeine, and many people need energy drinks, especially those with sweaty jobs.
we just need to be responsible in drinking, As we always remind when we drink alcohol. DRINK MODERATELY
THANK YOU FOR READING MY ARTICLE.
