@newstart_2024 I feel so much better without caffeine. I gave it up about 4 years ago. Everything is just better - sleep, heart rate, alert. No side effects when I went cold turkey. Never going back!!

Michael Pollan quit caffeine for 3 months… and realized his “normal” self was just caffeinated. First week: “Felt like I contracted ADD. Couldn’t concentrate, couldn’t write, veil between me and reality.” Month 1: Functional but miserable. Month 3: “Slept like a teenager… but I was still a mess.” First cup back: “Waves of well-being → euphoria → like cocaine for 20 minutes.” Then: irritability, compulsive cleaning, unsubscribing from 100 listservs, reorganizing sweaters, plotting the next dose. Classic addict behavior — even he admits it. Chronic caffeine lowers adenosine sensitivity (your brain’s sleep-pressure signal). Withdrawal = fog/ADD-like symptoms. Re-dose = euphoric adenosine clearance after 24+ hours of buildup. Baseline becomes caffeinated baseline. Pollan’s takeaway: “Yourself is caffeinated… and that is baseline for many of us.” Ever quit caffeine cold turkey? What hit you hardest — the brain fog, the irritability, the insane euphoria on return, or something else? Your stories 👇

@OrbitalSoph @MillennialWoes I remember watching Dr Who when it first came out and hiding behind the sofa! I found the daleks so scary. But Tom Baker was my favourite Dr. I agree, the decline has been very rapid.

@AroundOnFoot I actually looked for a still with her and the slippers but I couldn't find one that showed her face in hi res. I've heard that was actually an ad lib on Connery's part...he was supposed to hand her a towel but thought the slippers would be funnier...and he was right!😊

I'm not convinced that any other actor could have matched Mike Pratt in portraying the downtrodden private investigator Jeff Randall. Unlucky in love, business...He 'nailed' the role, with a mixture of pathos and light comedy.

@Dene71 I often add pickled beetroot to things. Glad to hear I'm not the only one!

Due to a best-before snafu, having to eat fish + vegetables 2 nights in a row. 🐟🥕🥱 Oh well, different fish, different vegetables. But there will be pickled beetroot added for extra taste. 😋
