I wonder whether you’re still caffeine free?

Anyone here who would like to quit the caffeine for some time (at least) with me?

If you are just interested in whether one can be abstinent from caffeine, I can assure you it’s doable. I had an enormous intake of caffeine (coffee and energy drinks), including caffeine poisoning. But now I haven’t drunk any caffeine for roughly 1.5 years. First, it’s really hard, but in the end, it’s worth it.

I struggle with this too but I am currently still using caffeine and now isn’t the right time for cold turkey. Keep posting, I will encourage since I can’t join you.

Well, you have an experience! I have quit caffeine gazillion times… last time I quit was last June for month and half… I know it’s doable, but I am blocked somehow and each new attempt to quit is harder and harder.

Oh, thank you! I haven’t quit yet. For me it’s never the right time.

Yeah, tons of water and an adrenal cocktail with electrolytes… I had a nap, but I couldn’t sleep because of the terrible pain. Now I feel better. Luckily I can rest today. Tomorrow work and need to be somewhat fresh… Thank you!

Of course! Take it easy when you can and keep pushing on days you need to. It does get easier.

I don’t know if this is normal but I had these side effects as well which led me back to drinking caffeine. I still want to get rid of caffeine, though. I hope your sleep will get better soon. Don’t give up.

This really resonates with me and probably also explains why so many addicts struggle to see a positive future, whatever the reason for that may be.

Head down and crack on it is then,time for payback,thank you
Ok so im 7 days into my caffeinne withdrawal and these are the things ive noticed,i think i kind of underestimated what i chose to do
The banging headache has kind of peaked now as im not using as many nurofen.
My sleep is worse than it was before i stopped which i find odd but i can deal with this.
Although i feel a bit groggy some of the day overall i feel very bright through the day.
This hasnt interfered with my workouts whatsoever.
I dont want to sound to too over confident but i feel this quit is pretty much in the bag.
If i do slip up on this though it wont be down wanting a double expresso or an enery drink it will be down to my love of CHOCOLATE!!!

22 days i lasted,i could of possibly been close to cracking it but it was having to much of an effect on my training,work and daily life,i just seemed to lose sharpness and interest in everything,it seems im at that age were i need a few kicks during the day now,no shame in that!!
Im not even going to attempt to do this again
Moderation is what ill be looking at in the future.

I really don’t think you should consider it a failure. Coffee cleansing abstinence may be just what you needed. Now you can face the day knowing you accomplished COFFEE FASTING.
