Caffeine is very dangerous to everyone. especially to a child who intakes numerous sodas, chocolate, tea, etc anything that has caffeine. I know all too well for it ruin my life until 5 weeks ago when I stopped using caffeine. I was mentally ill all these years until now, I'm 51. My conigtive thinking was out the window! I'm a loner and have had severe problems keeping friends and have had severe fallings out with my parents, sister, and I have negatively effected my children in our relationship. Of the 3 times that I went into depression, I had reduced my caffeine intake prior for different reasons. This time I put it all together and did a search via the Internet for : "Dangers of Caffeine". Since then my life has severly changed for I have eliminated caffeine! My body had way too much caffeine intake as a child. I could not metabolize caffeine quick enough as to my intake. I had a cerebral allergy to caffeine! At 13 I began drinking 6 to 7 cups of coffee a day along with several Cokes and a lot of chocolate. The word needs to get OUT THAT CAFFEINE IS DANGEROUS TO MENTAL HEALTH!!! Not only that it effects every organ in the body, mostly negatively!!! It's on the Internet, but it's the 3rd largest commodity in the world and money talks and also hides the TRUTH!!!!
