Was quitting coffee the only change you've made in your lifestyle? Or did you e.g. started working out, be more strict about your daily regime, be more careful with what you eat?

It was the largest single change, yes.

I have always eaten healthy food, I go for walks and hikes and bike rides regularly but I wouldn't say that I "work out".

I just developed a massive headache one afternoon, realized it was because I hadn't had my morning cup of joe, felt disgusted with myself as a result, and decided to quit drinking it altogether.

I figure that anything as addictive as that has no place being consumed daily.

I grew out of my nicotine habits and other addictive drug habits years ago for the exact same reasons.
