I quit caffeine a month ago (my neurologist is convinced my redbull "addiction" was causing the migraines I've been having since I was 6) and it's no skin off my back to quit for 6 months to prove him wrong.
Only the insomnia!
I used to have a red bull right before bed to help me relax and sleep soundly, now I've got nothing (weed makes me want to clean my house then throw up)
I haven't had any caffeine cravings, but I have started hallucinating from the sleep deprivation. I was told caffeine withdrawals usually only last 2 weeks so I'm wondering if this is just my natural sleep cycle shining through.
I've got a sublingual melatonin tincture that I need to remember to use because it helps somewhat, but despite multiple alarms and post it notes near my bed I completely forget I have it as an option.
