If it’s coffee/tea, how do you take it? I typically end up consuming 200-400 Mg a day depending on if I go to the gym or work overnight. I either do black coffee (iced ideally) or sugar free redbull/monster. I’m considering switching to caffeine pills but I know it wont scratch that habitual itch of drinking it down.
Yeah if I didn’t work the weird ass swing shift I do I’d probably try to stop.
Not throwing shade, but caffeine is a crutch.
If you ditched it, it would suck for a few months sure, but then your brain will adjust.
I’ve been caffeine free for over 20 years. If I stay up super late, or wake up super early, I struggle for a moment, but then I’m fine.
Water is my go to in the morning.
Your body is so used to caffeine, that you’re literally medicating yourself for a condition you created for yourself. You need it in the morning on a weird shift, because you always use it in the morning on a weird shift.
Again, sorry for the rant, I just feel very strongly about this scientific fact.
Best wishes to you
Its tough for me because I don’t work a consistent schedule. I work in a 28 day cycle. In total 14 days off, 7 days of 7 am-7pm and 7 days of 7 pm to 7 am, all mixed up.
