It seems more straightforward to simply curb caffeine consumption during periods where you're sleeping poorly. Most people (myself included in the past) would drink more coffee when they sleep less. Grey matter aside, I think this is a very poor strategy. It will make next night's sleep even less effective. Better to drink less coffee, have a shitty day/week, and sleep more restoratively as soon as you can. Don't get in a doom loop voluntarily. Have caffeine only when you're feeling well rested.
