quitting caffeine? (hexbear.net)
submitted 12 hours ago by quarrk@hexbear.net to c/chat@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

Wow 800mg! How did you cut back? Fewer drinks, or did you eliminate a specific thing like coffee or Red Bull?

Energy drinks and coffee would be waaaay too expensive for my habit! I was taking super cheap caffeine pills. 200mg every four hours, four times a day.

I now take even cheaper 100mg pills every four hours, four times a day. Caffeinated drinks are a very rare treat, the pills are my medicine 👩‍⚕️
