Minor Caffeine Withdrawal..weird...??

[belfort]

ok so ive been taking caffeine pills for the majority of the past 10 years or so..last year i quit a 400 mg a day habit and the headaches and lethargy were awful..i vowed never to go back on but working swing shift and other insomnia issues led me to go right back on...3 days ago i stopped using cold turkey, i was using about 400 mgs a day and ive had very minor headaches, definitely notice some tiredness issues, motivation is zilch but the major thing i notice is my mood is quite low..

these withdrawals will last 6-7 days probably even though the lack of motivation seems to last forever in my case...is there anyone that has stopped caffeine and stayed off and actually felt better in the long term?if so, what good effects did you notice when stopping?i notice im calmer when off caffeine but also suffer from tiredness and lack of motivation which always draws me back to the stuff..

it just seems like some people seem to function better on it where the minority dont..i have no idea where i stand..

I only notice caffeine withdraw when I haven't been using other substances aside from caffeine. My caffeine intake lately has been wayyyyy too high. On a daily basis, too. I will suffer lethargy and headaches as well without it these days.

Now let's say I was using heroin and started going through caffeine withdrawal. I wouldn't even notice or care lol. The only time I struggle getting off of caffeine is when it's one of the more prevalent drugs in my use. Lately, it has been. As well as nicotine. Switched to vaping a while back. Which turned into me owning 6 vaporizers/mods, so my nicotine intake has probably only gone up lol.

I feel better off the caffeine when I actually don't take it for a while. Less shaky, irritable, etc.
