Quitting caffeine sucks

why the frick would i do that


no but for real, i usually work up to a gram a day and every lent i give it up cold turkey. Tired for a few days but not bad other than that.

I’m up to about 700 mg a day

No and there is no reason to.

Week long camp back in early highschool only had water to drink. Killed my taste for soft drinks. Never even tried to like coffee.

I quit cold turkey once.

I'm already a bit of a depressive person, but the lack of will to live I felt after quitting caffeine was unbearable. I never understood true depression until that point. I was irritable and anxious, I had headaches, and I was foggy. But I really can't explain the depression I felt.

I jumped back on and then a few months later tried to wean off. Got off of it for 3-4 months, had a cup one morning and finished all my schoolwork for a week in advance of due dates and realized that I was hooked for the long haul.

It affects everyone differently.

I’ve used 500mg capsules of DL-phenylalanine (an amino acid) for immediate, no real withdrawals. Though I recommend tapering down to one cup first, then take the jump to see how you body reacts. Take one 500mg for every cup you usually would have.

The habit of drinking something warm in the morning is a fierce beast.

Yep. Sucks arse.

I just try to regulate it now. If I get too much I sleep like shite.

caffeine has been proven repeatedly to be great for the brain
