I tried that once, under duress. It sucked. I no longer drink many cups of coffee a day now, but that morning one is needed for the reason stated here - withdrawal headaches! Boy, they really do suck too.
Best of luck to you Kat! I'll not give up my morning cup of coffee till I can no longer serve myself I suspect.
I have 2 cup of coffee and a small can of red bull every day. Without the constant flow the pain is so bad that my brain feels like it is jiggling with every small step. So weird.
Rite there with ya Spiny! Some time back when my husband got COVID he had no craving for coffee so he stopped drinking it. Weeks after getting over it, we couldn't figure out why he was having bad headaches daily until it dawned on us he was having caffeine withdrawals... I tell ya what, that man turns into a manchild when feeling ANY ailment so coffee it was!
When even Tylenol and ginger don't help, that's some strong withdrawal alright.
I'd still hope you could recover relatively quickly following the upcoming cold turkey unpleasantries. All appendages crossed and knocking on wood.
Good luck to you! Don't think you need it as much as you think you do but luck sent your way! I've never had success with energy drinks but have had decent success with coffee. Unfortunately both are addictive and both cause withdrawal headaches. Here's to your success!

I used to get triggered so easily by fumes and burning smells and stuff but in the last five years all of those triggers went away. It matches up pretty good with busting as well since I started busting about five years ago.
I'm with ya on the strong vapors emitted from substances.. Bleach is a no go as is pine sol. I don't think what you are experiencing is unheard of. Seems that the tendrils of this kill joy condition reach far and wide. Maybe use a negative pressure 100% outside air intake system?
