anxiety causes muscle pain, and judging by your multiple posts and worries you are probably making yourself very tense resulting in lots of muscle pain

Caffeine doesn't cause muscle pain directly, but it does increase anxiety which increases your muscle tension and that muscle tension causes muscle pain. So essentially it is your anxiety that causes the muscle pain, and the caffeine that increases your anxiety. My advice is to definitely steer clear of caffeine. You'll find that, after a while, you'll be a little less tense and nervous. I haven't had coffee or alcohol for over a year. Best thing I ever did!
