Btw, caffeine is an anticholinergic; too many or too much of this class of compounds leads to dementia and other permanent problems. Anecdotal example: ex-stepfather abused diphenhydramine, had a personality change and acted erratically... he eventually gave up, left my semi-disabled mom without any notice, just an email.
