I take regular caffeine breaks, you might want to taper down to 1/day or tea only for a week or 2, makes the first week much easier than going cold turkey for me

Usually 2 weeks feels like enough to reset fully

I definitely sleep better, been trying to really limit when my last coffee is because I feel like even 3pm affects my sleep

good to know - my plan is to taper down, 1/2 to 1/3 of normal.

how long do you normally take a caffeine break for? I was thinking to try for a month.

any noticeable before/after for you?
