Do you have experience quitting caffeine? How long did it take to get back to baseline?

I've been without caffeine for 2 weeks. Mood and motivation are not back yet.

Wanted to sleep better and have a regular heartbeat. Feeling more calm now, but I'm not sure if this is worth it ๐Ÿ˜„ I've developed a deep association between coffee and coding over the years.

You can try matcha tee

Took me a couple weeks but by then I felt great. Maybe stick it out a little longer. What I will say is once you actually have caffeine again - WHOA. Feels very different after getting to baseline.

1 day feeling shitty. 1 week feeling tired. 3 month till nothing seems missing anymore. Taking afternoon naps is so much better without caffeine in your system.

I did 6 months ago, took nearly a full month, month and a half however I did substitute with small amounts of low caffeine content green tea, Big difference overall in life, im less jittery, more relaxed, and sleep is better. I would not go back to drinking coffee everyday.

Its been about 4 years now. About 2 ounces of most black coffee in about 5-10 mins is enough to really feel it. If I ever have a tea or coffee I have about 8 oz over about 6 hours usually. I used to be a 2-3 coffee/energy drink person, for about 6 years prior. I have gotten used to coffee/tea at roo...

Replace it with tea or decaf coffee ?

I quit coffee in 2022 and I think it took me maybe 3 days? It was definitely less than a week to move on from it and I used to drink it twice a day. You definitely should be at baseline by now. My guess is your diet and/or digestion is messed up.

get high quality decaf beans and mix them 75/25, to 50/50, to 25/75 by the time you are at 75% decaf you can quit fairly easy recommend Ruta Maya dark roast; best on the market

quitting coffee ain't worth it :) just don't drink any after midday. just talking from personal experience and not with any medical capacity..

Try Cannabis Oil - THC is the best... Deep sleep, no dreaming and incredibly refreshed wake up.

I had a couple of times. Before quitting entirely I start by brewing some decaf beans.

I tapered - half-caf for awhile, then switched to herbal tea. I never did just decaf coffee though - taste was too bad. I've been off caffeine now for about about a year. My biggest problem is that it's awkward at social gatherings, so I usually have herbal tea in those cases. I can't say how long i...

I do this from time to time so I can lower my caffeine tolerance and I would say the main things I think help me are: - having a glass of room temp water right when I wake up (just keep the water by your bedside) - getting into the kitchen and making a glass of lemon water before eating anything - ...

Coffee has more health benefits than its contraindications, it is good for the heart and accompanies the mind. And if not, drink yerba mate ๐Ÿง‰

Things should be getting easier now that it's been 2 weeks. ๐Ÿฅณ Tulsi herbal tea is an adoptogen and will help relax your nervous system and improve response to stress over time. Try a cup at night before bed to improve sleep. For more energy, try eating an orange in the morning... Do some yoga ...

Took me about a month to adjust from 4 or 5 strong stove-top coffees a day to zero caffeine at all. This was 4 years ago now and I've never looked back.
