Is coffee essential for you in the morning?

Every morning when I wake up one thing comes to my mind that makes the burden of waking up early in the morning easier:the thought of a nice,strong cup of coffee.In fact,only when I have my morning cup of coffee I feel that life is not that bad after all.However,I suppose there are many people who can start their working day in a good mood without necessarily having coffee,so I wonder if you feel the same way that I do in the morning and,in case you don't consume coffee at all,do you use anything else instead?

Ohhhhh friend coffee is not essential for me in the morning but tea is essential without tea I never live because if any day due to some reason late for taking tea then paining is start in my mind. So I think tea is works as energy and it is necessary for students for study purpose.

Hey Polaris, You are lucky to have coffee in the morning. But I can't have my coffee because I have some health problems.Enjoy your coffee.

I never drink coffee, and i really think it's bad to have a cup everyday in the morning, especially when it contains caffeine. It's just a personal choice, as I usually feel terrible the following day if I've had caffeine. I just make sure I'm warm enough - heating on, wear extra layers, had a good sleep the night before, and generally a healthy lifestyle - plus waking up at relatively the same time everyday really helps... :)

A morning without a coffee - it's not a morning. If you would want to take away my joy of living then there is a very simple way how to do it - just forbid me to drink coffee. It helps me to start my day, and maintains a cheerfulness while I am working. Yes, you can call it an addiction. I am addicted to coffee.

A coffee morning is welcome. It gives you strength and power to start a new day. And I drink coffee for 16 years now we have 32 and are not addictive. If you serve and a cookie or a piece of chocolate, coffee is much better!

It depends on the activities before and during a day - when I feel really sleepy, I drink coffee. But the times I do really need it are those when I must study or focus on a work late at night.

I don't have a habit to drink coffee every morning. I occasionally drink it. I like it but sometimes I am afraid I will be sleepless at night. The coffee works well for me in this aspect:) I love China

I occasionally drink coffee. Although I do not every morning. I am not a big coffee drinker. Days that I have more to do I usually drink at least one cup of coffee. For example the days that I clean a lot, which are usually on Mondays and I consider them my "cleaning days" I will drink a cup or two. I have to have a lot of cream and a little bit sugar but I am starting to try new flavors and have found a few new flavors that I enjoy. So I guess to answer your question...Coffee is not essential to me in the morning.

For me, coffee really isn't essential in the morning. I don't drink coffee very often anymore. I guess I just lost taste for it, which is probably why I don't drink it as often as I used to.

It's essential for me in the early morning, the late morning, lunchtime, mid-afternoon, early evening. . .I think it makes the whole day better!

Coffee is my life. My morning is not complete without having a cup of hot coffee.

Coffee is essential to me at all times of day and night. It's very likely bad for my health, but I can't give it up. I've already given up smoking and unhealthy foods - That should be enough to keep me alive for a few more years.....
