Caffeine withdrawal

Why would you take a break from caffeine?

Yesterday I took a pre workout a coffee and yerba mate and honestly felt dizzy. I took it as a sign to quit cold turkey. It's also a good thing to quit for a while so you can actually feel it hit you harder when you start taking it again

If you want to get rid of caffeine, i dont think dropping caffeine instantly is the best way. You should take smaller doses of it every day, so your body wont crave it so badly

I gotta say i only use caffeine when im cutting and i completely drop caffeine once im bulking. Has been working fine for me. If you really cant live without probably the best to take smaller doses yeah.

Don't go over 150mgs in a day

When you quit, drink green tea till you can get off it. Should take you about a week. Smoking weed helps but probably because I'm addicted to weed

Cycle 2 weeks on 1 week off

It's not that bad if you do it over the weekend, you'll be fresh on monday.

You're in withdrawal.
Your body can build up a dependence on caffeine if you consume it regularly or in large quantities.
I'm taking about 500 mg a day in an EC stack right now and if I were to get off the stack I'd taper off the caffeine slowly. Cold turkey is just asking for a shitshow.

Holy fuck you retard. Are you 14?

I get withdrawal all the time. Just don't drink any on Sunday and enjoy it doing other shit.

Then start drinking it again Monday-satueday

It takes a day or two to come off caffeine without withdrawals. Why are you making it hard?

Do something like 500 -> 350 -> 200 and time your last dose so you can get to sleep before withdrawals kick in. By the time you wake up in the morning most of the caffeine is out of your system and you might have a bit of a headache the next morning and feel a bit like you have the start of a cold. Drink lots of water and by the next morning you are totally off it.

And that's a really overly complicated way of doing it. If you're not a little bitch just half your dose one day and then don't drink any the next day.

Second day without caffeine OP, have the same problems. Tired, headache, feeling like I have a cold coming up, being an unproductive piece of shit the whole day.

Hope it gets better.

College student in junior year here

I usually wait until vacations or a long holdiay/break to stop drinking coffee... that way feeling like shit won't make a difference

I was taking 500-600mg daily for a while. I wasnt able to communicate for a while unless i had my dose. Took a break for 3 months which was easy since i use pills.

When i had my first coffee after the break i was remembering stuff from like 10years ago. Names, places, things i talked about. Its good to take a break.

Same. I quit right after every semester for 2 weeks. Usually sleep a lot right after finals anyways.

Brehs, I have to say, quitting caffeine has been great for me, so far.

I feel really energized, when I didn't think I would.

My mood has improved, and I feel less stressed.

I take 400-600mg a day but have no problem going off. Just don't take it on downtime days.

>getting addicted to caffeine
Well, at least you're quitting. I never gave a fuck about caffeine. Too much of it makes me jittery. The most I ever consume on an irregular basis is a cup or two of Earl Grey, but that's almost nothing.

I wish the best for you OP.
