I am pretty addicted to caffeine, and my efforts to stop cold turkey haven't worked at all. I figured a lot of gamers have a similar problem and was wondering if any of you guys have good strategies in quitting or at least lessening my caffeine intake. I just really don't enjoy drinking water, and I would like to live a healthier life so help would be appreciated :)

i guess you can slowly reduce your intake

maybe for 2 weeks you don't drink caffeine on one or two days

then for a month or two after those 2 weeks, drink every other day

then slowly fizzle it out if you don't wanna be reliant on it

i dont know how ppl get addicted to caffeine, i just use it once a week when i am really tired like a boost, at this pojnt youve probably built up caffeine tolerance so ur just doing it to survive now and its not actually giving u a boost

i would maybe just get a lot of sleep or expose urself to sunlight as soon as u wakeup so u dont feel tired

i just really enjoy drinking it ngl.
maybe its just the feeling of drinking something warm (dont even think about commenting that)
issue is i dont like tea that much
