      I’d be broken for a little while but tbh I think I’d be better off in the long run

      I would normally say this too, but it’s surprisingly easy to get off caffeine. I’ve gone weeks without it, to usually slip up and start using it out of habit… but I don’t think I would miss it if caffeine suddenly just vanished from this world. I’d just slap my knee and say “huh, remember that weird drug we all used to take in the morning?”

      Around 5 hrs to fully metabolise caffeine. Physically you would be fine in a day.

      The habit, however would take longer to get over. That depends on your psychology, I know I can’t just replace my morning coffee with tea, because it doesn’t feel right.

      I usually have my last coffee at around 2pm, so by the time I get up in the morning, there is no caffeine in my system. The feeling of drinking coffee and tea is different for me, it’s not just about the taste.
