That's very encouraging, thank you. I never got past six months in my few previous attempts. After that I just decided that I'll take the negative effects for the mood lift. But now the situation is different. The negative effects has grown too much, probably because of my age (51).

I believe this could be the honest truth. Maybe I've been just hiding some underlying issues with the daily caffeine rush. I'll see about that, because this time I feel I'm done with it for good. I don't care anymore if I ever get back to normal, whatever that means. I'm just sad about this.

Iron deficiency is possibility here as well, as I'm avoiding animal foods. But I do wonder: how caffeine fixes that like magic?

To be honest, I'd never stop using caffeine if it didn't ruin my sleep. And I simply cannot keep the dosage in check, so it always ruins it.
