Insomnia for 1.5 Months After Quitting

Quitting Caffeine

As mentioned in title. First 3-4 weeks were the most brutal..hardly any sleep most nights. Going in between a wired state and feeling super exhausted. It’s been gradually getting better the past two weeks and have been logging in a few hours more most days compared to the first month. The occasional sleepless night still happens. I’ve been drinking herbal teas and taking low dose melatonin and they do seem to help, but I’m honestly scared that this is just life now??? My relatively great skin is getting haggard from bad sleep, and my eyes are so dry :(

Please..anyone who has gone through/is going through the same process…have you experienced similar symptoms? And PLEASE..please someone..please tell me it gets much better. :(((

On the bright side, I have noticed my BMs are much more regular and of..better quality now, and my energy level is more stable throughout the day even after a rough night.
