If you need the caffeine to function, you should maybe talk with a doctor if you can. If you just like coffee you can start to dilute it with milk or a creamer. A hot coffee tasting beverage is all I need.

Try developing an uncommon sleep disorder that basically makes you immune to the effects of caffeine. Tolerance won’t be an issue after that.

Drink less? It’s optional. If it causes you issues, just don’t.

You know, you don’t have to. Try having a goal to feel as good as possible as often as possible. If caffeine helps, so be it, if it harms, so be it.

Why do you ask? What sort of intolerance are you having?

I don’t drink it until I’ve been up a few hours and not within a few hours of sleeping, that works for me.

When young though, nothing felt better than sleeping on amphetamines or caffeine. So many dreams and so refreshing. I can’t do it now, too close to sleeping just makes it hard to sleep.

Sometimes, when I have my second cup of coffee, my chest gets tight, but I don’t always have that.

Maybe tea would suit you better? It contains the L-Theanine others here have recommended, and usually has less caffeine.

You could also just make smaller servings if you want to drink coffee twice, literally just use a smaller cup, or don’t fill it all the way?

Aeropress might be good too - it makes a nice strong tasting cup of coffee but the water is not in contact with the coffee for as long as it is for drip coffee.
