Isn't that an ADHD thing? Stimulants calming you down?
Indeed it is, this person is just self medicating and going through life undiagnosed :-)
I think it's also supposed to sober you up after a dinner party so you can drive home
Uh... No...
Alcohol is a downer, caffeine is a stimulant. So technically it can help you feel normal, but your senses are definitely not. You will be slow to react to some things and too hyperactive to be able to focus calmly to others. Very dangerous, please don't.
Nothing can sober you up except time.
