This is my reality too, although maybe a little less pronounced as I can still drink decaf coffee. It was such a profound uptick in my mental health when I cut out caffeine, so I don’t think I’ll be going back anytime soon.
I can drink decaf, since it's 99.9% caffeine-free. But most of the time I drink rooibos tea.
@inasaba @underscore_ rooibos or redbush tea is a lifesaver when I want a real cuppa, but really should be sensible as caffeine affects my sleep. You can even put. A dash of milk in it, and pretend it's real tea :autistic_lurker:
Yeah, I take my rooibos chai with soy milk.
