i drink like 3-4 cans of regular coca cola a day.
i can finish a 2 litre no problem.
i'm not a 9.
I have no idea whether it has to do with being a 9 or not, but the amount of caffeine (in the form of coffee, tea, energy shots, soda, caffeinated mints/gum, etc.) I employ isridonkulous.I'm very enterprising and restless for a 9, though (maybe due to being sx primary?)
Is there a relationship between being a type 9 and having a caffeine habit? Are these correlated more closely than with the other 8 types? Are there any type 9s out there who don't require some kind of stimulant (if not caffeine) to keep them going all day?
I thought most people were caffeine addicts? 9s have an affinity for sleep right? Why would they seek out something that makes them more awake? I guess they might feel the benefits more than some types.
For me, I have had a caffine addition temporarily in the past. I was merging with a 5w4 who loved coffee. I would drink it a lot and even when I wasn't tired. While I was integrating I would try new types of coffee with different flavors and potency. Eventually I noticed that I had this twitch in my left eye. I stopped drinking coffee cold turkey and the twitch stayed with me for about a month. Then I started to drink darjeeling tea and the twitch went away in about two days time. I thought that was really cool actually but all of this is irrelevant to the point I want to make.
The point I was going to make is that most people with the type 9 personality don't have a really well developed sense of self which would include any real awareness of the effects of coffee on their system. So this habit is easily set in motion and tends to stay in motion until that awareness is developed and the effects realized. At the same time, some nines may use stimulants as their "creature comfort" and simply will not be separated from them.

I can't figure out if I am more Eight or Nine. I don't think I am nice enough to be a Nine, but I don't usually have the steady energy of an Eight. Anyway, I think I usually see high energy people being big coffee attics. I think they have the desire to keep pushing their self, so the coffee helps, where Nines don't always have the desire, unless it's survival mode or maybe when they are in their healthier integrated days being closer to Three. I am a huge coffee junkie though...
I'm not asking if 9s need coffee to go into survival mode. I'm asking if they need it to give them the energy just to make it through their day.
