quitting caffeine? (hexbear.net)

Has anyone here quit caffeine after consuming it regularly for years? What was your experience, and was it worth it?

I’m considering doing this because I feel it is affecting my mood, energy, anxiety, and overall stability.

Not needing validation or anything, just curious to chat about it if anyone else has been through decaffeination

Quitting cold turkey is really rough. I take a week off several times a year to reset my tolerance. I usually have 2 to 5 days of bad headaches and severe lethargy. It really makes a huge difference on my mood and sleep schedule for the next couple of months, but its not easy
