NOTE: THIS SURVEY HAS BEEN COMPLETED, I NO LONGER NEED HELP! AND THANK YOU ALL FOR FILLING THE SURVEY!
Greetings, humans. I am making a survey of caffeine's effects on tiredness. If you could find it in yourself to take a moment to answer the following questions, it would be greatly appreciated. I will post the results (statistics) in this thread when I'm ready.
1. On average how many litres per week do you drink energy drinks? 2. On average how many litres per week do you drink coffee? (One cup ~ 0.2 litres) 3. On average how many litres per week do you drink tea and soda? 4. On average how many hours per week do you sleep? 5. On average how tired do you feel on a scale from 1 to 10. (Brisk -> Tired) 6. (If you answered over 5 on last question) What do you think is the reason for your tiredness?
And here is how to answer:

Results --Statistics: 71 people filled this survey The average amount of energy drinks per week was 2.8dl(1dl = 0.1l) The average amount of coffee per week was 13.8dl(1dl = 0.1l) The average amount of tea and soda per week was 33dl(1dl = 0.1l) The average amount of sleep per week was 49.4 The average tiredness level was 5.2
--Conclusions: Tiredness is affected by so many factors, that higher consumption of cafeine is rarely the (only) reason behind it. People who consumed more cafeine were not more or less tired than those who had less cafeine. Here is a chart with dots in it:
What I found interesting, however, was that the people who sleep less were not generally any more tired than those who sleep more. I'd guess the reason behind this is that people are different: some people just make do with less sleep than others. Here are some more dots in a chart:
6) at the moment I am working off a few sleepless nights due to gaming so I am just getting my sleep pattern back.
Usually on this kind of caffine in take I go to bed at 12 and wake up at 8. Unless I do an all nighter or two (which throws me off), I always get 8 hours sleep.
If I do get thrown off I do the opposite of what you would think would happen, I end up sleeping 3 hours night and being insanely tired during the day.
1. 0 2. 1.4 3. 5.6 (tea) + 4 (soda) 4. 56 5. 4 6. not tired now, usually when I am its because a) it after 11pm, b)its before 10am c) (most common) I've not been wearing my glasses .
Also, how come tea and soda are combined? Tea is caffeinated and soda isn't. I'd have thought that would make a difference
1. Zero, nada, none. 2) Zero, nada, none. 3) Zero, nada, none. (Its just sparkling water for me folks.) 4) About 56, I guess? I sleep a lot. 5) 5-6 I guess. 6) Mirtazapin.
1. On average how many litres per week do you drink energy drinks? 2. On average how many litres per week do you drink coffee? (One cup ~ 0.2 litres) 3.

1. 0.1 maybe? I only drink energy drinks occasionally, so it's hard to nail down an average weekly consumption. 2. 0.7-1 litre(s), I'd say. Varies a lot. 3. Tea: ca. 0.6 litres. Soda: ca. 1 litre. 4. Something like 50-55 hours. 5. 5, maybe? It's hard to evaluate something like that, and it varies wildly.
1. 0.2 I rarely drink energey drinks 2. 0 I dont drink coffee 3. 2-3 litres of soda. 4. 64 5. 5 6. I eat a lot of rubbish and this leaves me lathargic i think. Plus work is stressful and Im trying to find another job so I can move home whihc is tiring.
1. 0 2. 1.5 3. 2.5 4. 50-54 5. 7 6. Poor weather lately (am very affected by it), am up early to beat traffic to get to work, I hate a coworker so it affects my drive, and I'm going to a funeral tomorrow. Usually I'm about a 5.
1. 0 litres (I don't normally consume energy drinks. last week I had close to 4-5 litres in about a couple of days, though.) 2. 0 litres (again, the same as above. But I didn't drink 4 litres of coffee last week. I had run out of it, though, and energy drinks were on promotion at the store, plus faster to make and consume - open, drink) 3. 2 litres 4. 56 hours (har-har, currently my sleep schedule is so messed up that lately it's closer to 40) 5. 3-ish, maybe 2 but closer to 3.

1. 0L 2. 0L 3. 14L soda/week 4. 56h/week 5. 8 6. It's because of some pills I've been eating for the past three years. I get maybe two hours every day where I don't feel the need to go to sleep. I struggle not to sleep too much though. Would be lots of wasted game time!
1. 0 2. 5L 3. 1L 4. 6.5*7 = 45 5. Somewhere between 3 and 7 really hard question, I get really tired at times, but have lots of energy at other times. 6. Yes I drink Coffee when I'm tired, Me student.
1) On average, 0. I only drink them when I find them on offer. 2) 0.2 litres then I guess, I only have a cup every now and then. 3) Probably about 6... but most of that's diet/light. 4) 36-40. 5) Probably around a 7. 6) I work early mornings, hence the lack of sleep and the high amount of caffeine.
1. 0 2. 1L 3. 8L (All soda, no tea) 4. 53 hours (Estimating. Going by 5 hours on weekdays and 11 hours on my weekends) 5. I'd say a solid 8 on weekdays, 5 on weekends. You could average that to to 6.5 or 7 overall I suppose. 6. I toss and turn a lot, I kinda think due to stress, so restless nights. Especially on weekdays.
And thank you for the pineapple. ^^ Om nom nom nom. <3
1) 0 2) 0 - I have ADHD, god help anyone around me if I drank energy drinks/coffee 3) 0 4) 42hours I think, takes me a few hours to get to sleep so hard to tell. 5) 5 6) mental problems that I'm not going into, counteracted by me doing around 32km a day in running.
1. 1L 2. 0L 3. 15-20L (This is hard to gauge since I drink like 6-10 cups of tea a day sometimes more) 4. 56 hours 5. 7 6. A combination of relatively unhealthy eating, lack of exercise and I have iron deficient anaemia (The last isn't such a big deal since I started taking iron supplements but can affect me if I forget to take them occasionally)

The average amount of coffee per week was 13.8dl (1dl = 0.1l)
The average amount of tea and soda per week was 33dl (1dl = 0.1l)

--Conclusions:
Tiredness is affected by so many factors, that higher consumption of cafeine is rarely the (only) reason behind it. People who consumed more cafeine were not more or less tired than those who had less cafeine. Here is a chart with dots in it:
Chart 1
What I found interesting, however, was that the people who sleep less were not generally any more tired than those who sleep more. I'd guess the reason behind this is that people are different: some people just make do with less sleep than others. Here are some more dots in a chart:
