Have you ever gone cold turkey?

  • Hmmm, I never really thought about the sugar part. I wasn't aware there were withdrawal symptoms from sugar. So I didn't think about it.

    A new microbead proves effective as a plastic-free skin scrubber

  • We don’t need to fix plastic, we need to replace plastic.

    Agreed!

  • Yep, that headache type is the exact kind I had too.

  • Well from the literature I read, it affects people differently. I drank a lot, but probably not as much as coffee drinkers.

    My caffeine was mainly Mountain Dew. Couple of 20 oz bottles a day, every day for several years. Not much compared to most gamers and shit.

    But for me, it was very very painful and uncomfortable to quit.

    I also know someone who drank coffee every day all day, way more caffeine than I did, and she quit cold turkey. One day headache, then she was good.

  • How was your experience? When I quit caffeine cold turkey, I was miserable. Crazy ass dreams. Headache that wouldn't go away. Two weeks of just total shitty symptoms. Month before I felt totally ok.

    Now I'm caffeine free, but holy fuck, that was tough.

  • Quit caffeine that way. Brutal. Felt like shit for a good solid two weeks. Didn't feel normal for another month.

    But I did it and now I'm caffeine-free. :)
