I read online somewhere that caffeine and related compounds make you less self-conscious... and we all know we could use that.

Maybe its just the placebo effect, but i truely found caffeine really helps.

I drink like 3 mountain dew cans a day (mainly cause i like the taste) and coffee in the morning to wake me up.... but i find the more i drink the less the DP is

Can anyone relate?

Any kind of stimulant is virtually guaranteed to make anxiety worse.

One of my GP's, in the dim and distant past, even recommended wearing sunglasses to dim any unwelcome stimulation. I didn't know if he was taking the piss or not. Still don't.
