I do, exclusively

Getting rid of caffeine (decaf still has a little) has been amazing for me.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

I’m trying to switch to non-alcoholic vodka.

[-] Cracks_InTheWalls@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

Non-alcoholic gin and tonics are the shit. If you're legit looking for non-alcoholic drinks and like G&Ts give it a try.

[-] pufferfischerpulver@feddit.de 5 points 10 months ago

Completely agree, it's basically just botanicals anyway. Well and booze

Non alcoholic beer has gotten a lot better the last years as well.

[-] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 10 months ago

Also called voda.

How so? I more than likely take in too much caffeine lol

[-] lobut@lemmy.ca 9 points 10 months ago

I'm not the person you're replying to but for me, I used to get random headaches and jitters and I feel more consistent now.

The problem is the withdrawal period can be hard for some. It was for me, but overall worth it in the end.

[-] Cliff@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

So you get consistent headaches an jitters now instead of getting it randomly?

How much you drinking? I didn't think it had an impact on me, even afternoon or evening, and only realised the difference when I cut it out

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 4 points 10 months ago

I have a "thermos" style bottle that's probably 16oz that I drink throughout the day every day. Weekends I'll drink more as I'm home and it's readily available.

It's cold brew so it's already cold for anyone disgusted by the "throughout the day" bit lol

[-] HumanPerson@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

16 oz is not that much, although cold brew is a little stronger. I used to consume a about gram of caffeine a day but withdrawal for me was a light headache and slightly lower energy for a day (I went no caffeine for a little while to reduce tolerance). I did notice my energy improve without it, however I am sometimes not able to get enough sleep and it is good for leveling out energy in those cases. I generally try to have low doses and occasional strategic bursts when necessary. Also if you are worried about sleep you can do the math using the half life of caffeine (5 hours avg.) to figure out how much you are on when you go to bed. Sorry if incoherent, I have been busy this week and not getting much sleep.

Personally, if i have too much and/or too late, i have a hard time falling asleep in the evening.
