since quitting caffeine

Sorry, can you explain this part?

I don't understand how you can quit ~~breathing~~ caffeine

I moved to half caff for a few weeks, then to decaf. I still have a cup of coffee every morning as part of my routine. The headaches were brutal on both changes, and I regret not taking longer to do so.

It began when I noticed caffeine pouches being sold at a gas station. Not pills, which feel like a drug, pouches, just like the Zyn pouches. The difference is caffeine can be sold to minors. I realized when I saw them that caffeine is simply another insidious drug being peddled to the masses to keep us locked in addictions, feeding the machine with our hard earned money.

You do not need the stimulant. You do not need the pacifier. You will not enjoy going without, until you learn how much better you feel without.
