Hello all.  Do any of you or have any of you used caffeine before attempting AP?  I have when I'm so tired I felt I needed it and had some mixed success.  I know the point is to relax, but sometimes it's hard to not instantly fall asleep.  My preferred brew is Japanese green tea.

I always have a coffee of some kind in my hand throughout the day... LoL
It's unique to you really.  People react differently to caffeine.

I could have a cup of java before bed and sleep just fine.
However, if my fiance did that, she'd be up until the following night.  hehe

Sometimes it can help you keep your focus a bit easier, other times it might hinder you.

I think it is best not to try to ap when you are tired.   Being tired you are likely to fall asleep.  You do not have to be tired to be able to ap.   There is nothing wrong with drinking coffee, not in excess of course if it helps you.

I can't drink coffee at night. 

Before I can do anything at night I have to go through a sleep cycle. When I come out of that cycle if I'm at the point in my psi cycle where I can do things easily I can AP if not I cannot. My ability is very cyclical in nature.
