I have been off the substance for two months now, and I can say that the urge to have my daily cup is slowly waning. Personally, I quit cold-turkey, which has definitely been easier due to lockdown. The first two weeks were horrible for me, though. I couldn't get much done in between the headaches and lethargy.
Caffeine is one of those things that is processed quite differently from person to person. To some, both the positive and negative effects are negligible, causing no disruption in their daily life. For me, it's definitely an addictive stimulant that robs me of energy with long-term consumption.
- cuddlybacon 6y agoI did it at the beginning of the lockdown as well. The lockdown did help. After 2 or 3 days, I begin needing naps mid day. I was sleeping more than 12 hours each day. Then at 2 weeks things went back to normal. However, after about 6-8 weeks of success I woke up feeling like crap and figured one coffee wouldn't hurt. It did. The next day I felt like I was pre-quitting.
