If I forget to recite Amitabha's name for long stretches of time, then some kind of intoxication is at work, whether drug-related or otherwise.
Alcohol and drugs of any kind make it that much harder to recite, so I avoid them.
The question isn't that complicated, is it? :shrug:

It is complicated.

At what point does caffeine become an intoxicant?

So I would guess something that clouds or distracts the mind; no textual source for that assumption though, and can't find one via digitally searching through the Rahula translated Abhidharmasamuccaya nor via the Googlebooks preview of the Bodhisattvabhumi.
