If I have more than 1 cup of coffee I get so jittery I want to crawl out of my skin lol

Gotta pump up that tolerance! Addiction won't form itself, get chugging!

No thanks, I'm generally trying to go in the other direction

That addiction sucks. Two cups of coffee still makes my skin crawl, but the difference is that one cup doesn't help me anymore and now I also have blood pressure problems.

Luckily, it only takes a week or so to get over it. Choose a holiday or long weekend, commit to no caffeine for 3-4 days, and by the time you have to go back to work again the withdrawal will pretty much be over. Then you can restart the cycle all over again, but you'll get buzzed on a single cup again.

Been a decaf boi for a while now and I have no desire to go back. Just go all the way
