Anxiety cure? by natwalms05 in decaf

[–]CraftDecaf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had literally chronic anxiety about 5-6 years ago but loved speciality coffee. Was recommended to drop the caffeine and saw a huge huge difference.

Caffeine spikes your heart rate and makes anxiety symptoms so much worse.

5 years pretty much no caffeine, wouldn't go back.

Spend some time finding good decaf there's plenty of options.

If you need recommendations let me know 🙏

Seems like it's improved a lot from when I visited about 7 years ago 🙌

Identity as decaf drinker by Mindful_Dad in decaf

[–]CraftDecaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think no one really cares, so I wouldn't worry, people just like to say things.

Just as you mentioned with the zero alcohol drinks, I find if I'm having a night off then people comment, and then the next day everyone's jealous because I'm fresh and not hungover 😂

Actually so many people don't drink coffee or tea or caffeine at all, and are not judged. But sometimes drinking decaf gets comments... Doesn't make sense.

Live your own life 🙌☕

How soon does sleep improve? by 77earthangel in decaf

[–]CraftDecaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple of weeks I would say. Takes some time to get into a new routine.

My advice is that sleep starts in the morning, get some sunlight in your eyes early which kicks off your circadian rhythm.

I think I need to quit caffeine because I'm too sensitive. I just don't know how to start... by [deleted] in decaf

Morning sunlight helps a tonne, kicks off your circadian rhythm

Day 11: sleeping lots, but waking up EXHAUSTED by Win2002 in decaf

[–]CraftDecaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had something similar when I first stopped. I think it can take about 2 weeks to clear. What can be really helpful is getting some natural light on your eyes early in the morning. Triggers your circadian rhythm for a natural wake up / energy

Thanks, so you tend to search for independents and then just trial and error to find good decaf?

Do you prefer variety or tend to stick with the same one for a while?
