14 days in - normal?

This has been quite the ordeal so far, way more than I expected for a “benign” drug. I had lots of physical symptoms for the first week: headaches, nausea, random extreme fatigue, one day of diarrhea. Now it’s switched to mental—I feel super flat and kind of like a passenger on my life. The reason I went off was the exhaustion of the caffeine rollercoaster paired with a lesser version of the same mental feelings I have now. Kind of disappointed that he mental aspect has gotten even worse. I hope it’s my dopamine system rebalancing. Interestingly, before on caffeine my sex drive was subdued but the parts still worked fine. Post-caffeine it’s at 5% of what it should be. Again, I hope my system is simply adjusting.

Tell me there is a light at the end of the tunnel? How long?
