That is great. Just a reminder that decaf is still a lot of caffeine, usually 1/3 or so of regular coffee! And green and black teas can have as much caffeine as an espresso (which is lower than brewed coffee, especially if you drink cup after cup...)

@stack Yeah I'm aware that decaf has some caffeine, although I believe it should be less than 10% of regular coffee. Unfortunately it's difficult to tell just by drinking a cup or two, and it must depend on the manufacturing process as well. The particular decaf that I have does not seem to provide any stimulating effects, but then again I don't drink it in large quantities.
I've been caffeine-free for a week now, having successfully (and rather painlessly) eased myself off of coffee. I feel... fine? My energy levels are stabler. Quality of sleep has improved. It would probably be wise to repeat this every few months. Can't wait to get back to enjoying the occasional cup, though. ☕️
