I am a 26 year old skinny tall guy and I have been smoking since I was 14 lately even one cigarette causes pain in my chest and back and when I cannot breathe properly I get scared and this never happens when I do not smoke I already know I need to quit but I want to have real willpower not having it makes me feel like a third class person I hate myself and I have no self respect but I also know I have the potential to quit and I need your motivation

In my dream, the expected big Istanbul earthquake finally happened I was outside, and the buildings were shaking so violently that I reached a point where I thought just collapse already and get it over with. But they still did not fall Later I went home and my mother was painting the inside of the dishwasher in a gold color I woke up in intense fear and the dream felt unbelievably vivid I could remember every detail clearly

Before sleeping I drank two large Turkish coffees so I already know what triggered it that dream was terrifying because of the caffeine but if you noticed the dream also gave me a message about what I need to do this is the peak example of how stimulant substances can affect anxiety disorders. I experienced it myself and the fact that the buildings were still standing despite that level of shaking reminded me of exactly what I need to do

I have pain in my kidneys especially at night and I can barely turn from side to side. I also have a horrible taste in my mouth loss of appetite anxiety hopelessness about the future excessive sweating and mood swings.

And I have this habit:
I drink 5 bottles of plain mineral water every evening.

And the strangest thing that really surprised me is that even if I go for hours without smoking I still do not crave cigarettes at all. This has started to make me very suspicious even though I am a smoker.

What I am most curious about is the psychological symptoms of kidney health problems. I would appreciate it if you could tell me.

Question for people who quit caffeine does even the smallest amount of caffeine cause negative effects for you?

For example, when you’re calm and happy, could sudden intrusive thoughts appearing in your mind be caused by caffeine?

Do you also experience depression or depressive feelings during the withdrawal process?

Does caffeine consumed in the afternoon cause much worse effects, or is morning caffeine worse?

I lost again. I lost this battle, the game caffeine plays with my mind won, not me. And now I am going into a deep kind of questioning. I told you before about the war between cigarettes and caffeine. Today I counted, and this is the 8th time I have fallen for the same trick. I am really angry at myself. But I also fully understand how serious it is to break free from addiction.

If you’re thinking about quitting coffee or tea, I want to give you one warning. While quitting caffeine, your brain will try to trick you. It will tell you, Look, it’s already the second or third day, and nothing has changed. Your problems aren’t caused by caffeine.It will blame everything on your diet or your social life. And at that exact moment, you’ll see two paths in front of you: go back or keep moving forward.

What you’re experiencing then is the stage where a large amount of caffeine is leaving your body. It’s the moment when your body and brain have started to change, and it feels like they’re asking you one last question. If you recognize those hours and moments clearly, and stay firm, you can succeed.

The most important thing is not to let this happen in the morning while you’re at work or school. Try to make sure it happens in the evening instead, when you don’t have responsibilities or tasks to deal with. Stay at home, keep yourself steady, and remove yourself from anything that might trigger you.

Speaking from my own experience, when I quit caffeine, the first things I noticed were that people spoke to me more kindly, I received more attention from the opposite sex, even cats seemed more drawn to me, and problems with my parents started to improve. I felt excited to discover new things. my hair and nails looked healthier. instead of wondering, whats going to happen tomorrow? I started thinking, I can’t wait for tomorrow so I can get to work and reach my goals.I stood up against unfairness with confidence, stopped making unnecessary purchases, truly felt the music I listened to, and most importantly, I began to understand who I really was and what I wanted.
