I'm quitting caffeine

[Jose Beehive]

This October will be year 6 that I haven't smoked a cigarette after 12 years on average one and a half packs a day (was up to three packs a day at one point) habit.

Good job! i'm about 12 days off, and I was smoking about 30g every 2-3 days.

I used to drink coffee everyday then I lowered it to 2 times a week and only early morning because it was messing with my sleep. More recently I switched to tea which is lower caffeine because coffee just messed with my stomach too much. Everyday I would drink it I would basically be on the toilet the whole day

Quit 99% of caffeine the last 10 years.

People have no idea how powerful a drug it is until its completely out of their system.

I had half a coffee and it was infinitely stronger than any cocaine I did in college.

Now i can handle about 10 milligrams of caffeine for an awesome ride without too many negative side effects.

It's going to be very hard, but good luck.

I'm gonna quit banging anyone less than a 10.


Right after I adjust my rating scale.


You like this 10, don't you, boys?

I had my last caffeine last night join me on my journey and keep me honest

What things have you quit

Good idea, it's back for your joints, tendons and cartilage

@Clippy why don't you and I talk about this decision over a cup of coff...<{chips}>

 

[Medulla Omoplata]

I should do that do

Be prepared for terrible headaches. anytime I try my head feels like it’ll explode.

as a regular coffee drinker, i've never experienced this. i can go days without a cup of coffee.

I quit drinking soda like 6 years ago, it wasn't as hard as I thought. I just started drinking coffee and water instead and that's it. I've cut way back on caffeine, that wasn't that hard either. I'll drink one decaf coffee a day and water.
My co-workers drink energy drinks like water, I don't see how they do it.

Same, surprisingly with how much I used to drink (2 starbucks venti size a day). Cutting out caffeine didn't really noticably affect me.

 

[M4rk]

I keep trying to quit you

Spoiler

I love your Cats more

This. If you are quitting cold turkey, don't be around people. The headache will be diabolical, and no amount of Aspirin or Tylenol will have an impact on it's severity. Only lasts a couple days though.

The next time I quit caffeine, I will just ask to be put into a medically induced coma.

Would weed help

I probably go through the equivalent of 4-5 of those in a day. Start at 6 am, down a big one in almost no time, then I am pretty much nursing a coffee straight through to about 4pm. That's when I stop.

At my consumption level, I have to make my own. Starbucks would ruin me financially.
