Really curious what the effects of quitting caffeine will be

I had headaches, was tired on one side and somehow still nervous. But only for 2 or 3 days. After that I could sleep much better. I am fitter, more focused and awake, because the energy level is no longer dependent on caffeine. At least that is my subjective impression.

Today I sometimes drink a cup of matcha, but no more coffee.

That’s good to hear. I wonder if it messes with your circadian rhythm

Mmmh, hard to say. I'm someone who never sleeps more than 6 or 7 hours. No matter whether with or without caffeine. The only thing that has changed for me is the quality of sleep. Without caffeine my sleep is deeper. I am more rested in the morning

So you haven't quit caffeine.

I gave up caffeine completely at first. Now I drink maybe one cup of matcha a week. Often none. But yes matcha has caffeine

It also has l-theanine which supposedly balances the effects of caffeine

Yes, I have been off caffeine 2 weeks now and feel way more focused, consistent & persistent. Better sleep.

Helping me become a better dad and partner too, as less fight or flight now…more even responses to situations outside my control ;)

Yes , L-theanine reduces anxiety and stress and promotes learning, memory, concentration and attention
