CRACKED STILL ROCKS. And I am still caffeine free (not even iced tea) (sorry, Roger, good try tho!)

I switched to decaf back in April and it made a big difference in a few things (still fighting with one of my medications though)

But I gotta say having a few cups of tea this morning I am super focused and energized, I felt like death when I woke up but now I'm alive and functional.

Thanks Caffeine.

Read from a few different sources over the last 2 or 3 years, seems the ideal is to "start your morning" with tea or coffee and get that momentum going, but then be DONE with caffeine around 10 hours before you plan on going to sleep.

That ability to stop after just one serving or by lunchtime (that, sadly, I think I personally do not possess) = prevents the more-to-get-the-same-kick caffeine treadmill.

I can go without caffeine all day and then not be able to sleep at night until 3am-5am, or I could drink Coke Zero in the evening and blissfully pass out at 11pm.
Prayin' for a 20!

I have some caffeine in the morning but sometimes tea at dinner (otherwise water) I try to avoid anything caffeinated after 6 PM anyway otherwise I'm up all night

I was going nuts with insomnia for a while, though I kind of put the blame on seroquel for that because I would feel tired all the time and sleep in the afternoons / early evening and then just be up all night watching YouTube. I'm transitioning off it and its pretty rough so far but I'll be glad when I'm done with it, ironically it was prescribed to me to help me sleep but other side effects have made it so that I can barely function anymore so I'm done with it
