After 3 weeks of no caffeine, Saturday morning I had about 6 oz's of coffee. On the plus side I actually get the rush from caffeine again, if I choose to consume it. But interestingly enough, sleep quality immediately declines - my sleep that night, although longer than usual, left me feeling grainy eyed and unrested. Didn't have another cup after that.

Sleep has definitely improved as an average. Hitting Deep Sleep for 15-20% of the night on a regular basis, REM for about the same. While taking in coffee, I was pretty commonly under 10% for both. Even when 1 of those was high, the other would typically be low so that my average for both combined was about 20%, now it's a little over 30%.

TL;DR - nothing to see here people. Just the musings of a recovering caffaholic.
