But why?? I have been cutting down on my coffee + caffeine intake for some time now and I am finally off it. Thursday the 29-07 was the first day I didn't feel like I needed to drink anything, so I didn't.

I little background might be worth it.

Well, maybe. I have properly been very sensitive to caffeine all my life, but only when I stopped drinking it for 6 months, I really felt the effect.
When I was a kid spending enormous amount of time playing Diablo2, I was chucking 2 liter coca-cola on the daily without a problem. Which set me off on a course to try any energy drink out there and drinking as many as possible daily!

I think the "worst" period of time in my life with this was when I was in School, I drank 4-5 cups of as black coffee as possible in the school, before on my way home scooping up a few big energy drinks and drinking 2 big ones a day after the cups of coffee.... So you can say that I was really really caffeinated :p

To no ones surprise, my sleep was horrendous during that time and I compensated that with drinking even more energy drinks or coffee the next day. Such a bad cycle xD

I did start to consume less and less coffee going down to 1 cup a day, but my energy drink consumption just increased, so it wasn't really a win. For most of my life, have I consume an energy drink a day going down to a small one only once.

I then started to change it up removing any energy drink from my diet and only consume coffee in the morning, which was quite good. I felt a lot healthier, but it didn't do much for my sleep since I was still consume caffeine x)

2 months ago or so, I decided to cut down on my coffee slowly going out of my way to weight my coffee going from 7g to 3g and then stopping without having a headache.

So as I wrote in the beginning, I haven't touch anything with caffeine in it since (besides weekends if I drink alcohol) and honestly. My sleep is quite good and I feel wake up when I wake and I also love the fact that I am not addicted to a drug(caffeine) any and need it in order to function ^^
