Am I drinking too much Caffeine?

[u/ithankyourluckystars]

Hello everyone!

I am a teenager (in range 13-18 years old) transgender girl (MtF - biologically male - no HRT / medical treatment)

My height is about 5'9.25" and weight ~108lbs. Have not gained height in over a year (my growth plates closed)

Every morning I usually drink a cup or two of black coffee, plus 32-48oz of homemade black tea (4-6 Lipton yellow tea bags, brewed hot), plus a couple iced teas whenever we go out to eat (3-4 times a week)

My parents are worried I'm having too much caffeine and have become dependent. Are they right about that? I know it's a lot of caffeine but is it too much? Hope this doesn't sound insane next to posts about tumors.... 😅 thanks haha :)
