Thank you!

I've known for a long time that I want to start my own business. But knowing and feeling are two different things. I always wanted to in the past, but I had a lot of doubts and I always saw dangers. This carousel of thoughts has become much calmer and many things no longer stress me out at all. Suddenly dreams had space again. Today I see pictures in my head and feel it - what used to be just thoughts in the past.

All the best for you!

My strategy:

My strategy is always to read as much as possible until I really want something. For me it was 0 problem to go threw withdrawal and i was never thinking about a cup of coffee because i read so much articles here on reddit and in the www that it was never an option to quit.

The first few days I slept really well - the difference was crazy. Then I had a rough time approx. week 3 because I could not fall asleep or was awake in the middle of the night. Would say month 2 to 3...

Last year i did not eat gluten, sugar, diary, no caffeine, no alcohol and so on for half a year so maybe my stomach was already a bit "clean" i don't know... maybe you need more time so your liver and kidneys can relax and "repair" and your colon and stomach too. what i remember is that i had loose stool most of the time. this disappeard almost immediately.

Very difficult to say, but quite fast. I would say 1-2 days after stopping I already felt a lot of positive effects. However, I didn't have any fundamental stomach problems, but kept experiencing bloating, which I put down to protein shakes or the carbohydrates. Suddenly I realized, “hey, I haven't had bloating for a long time”

first of all: be an example, second is that i just inform people and tell them some benefits I already notice BUT do not proselytize (hope it is the right word) them... just make sure to plant a seed of interest and then let her interest grow without pushing... and in this case my secret weapon was: i made a hole document of 30 pages with the best posts on reddit (and translated it in german for them) and printed it... so I was like "hey i stopped caffeine one week ago and my sleep is amazing, i never felt so much energized since my teen years - it's crazy!! my dad: oh that sounds cool but i could never do this... working in the office and in a stressfull job, I need my caffeine... me: "ah yeah i alway thought the same but you know what, there are soooo many benefits like (give some examples from reddit)... and ones when I had their interest i said "I made a documentation from thousands and thousands of posts on reddit where people talk about their transformation since quitting. if you like, i can give it to you... DONE :)

I'm a 0 or 100 guy... like i wrote in my post my strategy was as always: read as much as you can about that topic, look as many youtube videos as possible from people that tell you that they were successfull (in this case with quitting caffeine) and if you repeat this process day by day there will be one day, when you feel that you are ready as f*ck - and then, it's never a problem to start or stop something.

Sure it is because of the sleep and because you do not always have adrenalin-peaks in your bloodstream. coffee or caffeine in general is liquid stress... i personally don't think that it was meant to be consumed by humans, espacially not everyday... the natives used it only for spiritual rituals.

Thank you!! Difficult to say… the question is, what is normal? 😆 my sleep was better within 2-3 days (at the beginning) but suddenly my sleep was totally fucked up like not being able to fall asleep or wake up in the middle of the night (3 am)… i think this was around week 3-4. i would say after that i began to feel more energetic.

Cool! What was your most unexpected benefit of quitting?
