Quitting Caffeine

No, but I've definitely noticed that when I feel anxious, more often than not I've recently had a cup of coffee.

Yes, my anxiety is way down. I made a post on decafe about my withdrawal symptoms they were a bitch. Good luck bro

Do it. It's one of the best things I've done for my health, emotional state, and productivity.

I climb mountains, sail, ride, climb trees and run a successful business. Caffeine is a drug. Get off the drugs bro, do cold plunges instead. You got this 🤙

Yes I’ve quit completely for 2 years now. Stupidly picked up nicotine over the past year that is a bitch to quit. Gives me anxiety to. Weird cycle of it makes me feel good and also gives me terrible anxiety. Any advice on nicotine helps lol

For me, I had a week of somewhat headaches and my tolerance to even the most minuscule was so low, I’d snap at what was nothing.

Once passed that though, it is awesome. Feel so much more energy and there is no nagging thought/feel in my head that I need caffeine.

On the off chance that I do have an energy drink or something (once a month) it literally now does what it’s supposed to do, in keeping me awake.

Keep an eye out on your diet sodas too... many contain caffeine :)

I quit caffeine for a while. About one week in my company added a coffee and espresso bar on the first floor of our office building. Everyone was drinking lattes. It fucking sucked. I found myself more angry and not any better without coffee.

The juice wasn't worth the squeeze for me.

I've quit caffeine completely. At the time of doing it, I cut it out completely. You'll have headaches, depression, fatigue.

Caffeine is one hell of a drug. It fucks with a lot of things in your body and brain. It's also heavily abused and usually paired with tons of sugar.

That all being said, my mood, stress and energy levels are more stable. I have less crashes, I worry less and I seem to have way better focus overall.

It definetly helps. There is a subreddit called ''decaf'' or something like that with a lot of stories. It's day and night for me for everything. Once you get back to normal you sleep better, feel better with more stable energy, you are more switched on, less anxiety. Coffee/caffeine can be pretty horrible

I used to take caffeine pills before working out around 7pm, when I ran out of pills I slept much better during the night. I still drink a cup in the morning tho, but it doesn't fuck me up as much as when i used to take it in afternoon

Quit caffeine immediately. I replaced my daily with a protein drink and never looked back.
