Quitting coffee was a really bad experience for me.

I had what felt like withdrawal symptoms: a strong headache, muscle aches, and I was really cold. It lasted for two days, until I took a minuscule sip and everything went away within five minutes.

That made me realize the extent to which I was actually addicted, and how dependent my body was on it.

I managed to quit and stayed caffeine-free for about a year.

But one day I said, “Just one cup won’t hurt,” and oh boy... it was like having superpowers. I was so focused, so wide awake. Of course, I’m an addict again. :(
