I used to have severe anxiety and panic attacks. Then, I cut out caffeine from coffee (not tea) completely. The anxiety and panic attacks disappeared.
I need to do this my anxiety has Been bad but I have noticed I have been drinking a lot of caffeine
Same thing happened to me.
Same here !
Same here! 100% gone!!
I’m on week 3 with no coffee and I feel so much better . Anxiety gone, pms gone, panic attacks, gone . Coffee is deadly lol .
This September it will be two years without a drop of coffee ☕️ in my mouth.
My anxiety level dropped tremendously. My sleep is deeper than ever.
@Bobby A did you feel better after that?
Ma'sha'Allah congratulations 🎊
I'm officially done with coffee. Having anymore than a cup sends me directly into fight or flight. Sad to think such a beloved beverage can trigger anxiety attacks in so many people.
Same here man. I drank it for years and never really made the connection to how it worsened my anxiety disorder. Some people are more genetically susceptible to be affected negatively by it. So were you successful in eliminating it?
Bruh, I take a few sips and my mental performance is affected negatively.
After the vaccination 💉 right ?
Going to cut out caffeine starting tomorrow.
From 1 L of black coffee and pre-workout, to none.
My 2 workouts a day are going to suffer, wonder what will feel worse,
my 6 km run or my following strength workout.
Baaaaaaaahhh…
@@abdielbullberg1875 Cold turkey is possibly a horrible thing to do. I tried it, and had one day of seeming peace before caffeine widthdrawal hit me _hard_ the next day.
Coffee don’t even wake me up, it just amplifies my anxiety. But dang, it does taste so good
Panic attacks, anxiety are flipping gone after giving up coffee!
I am 55 suffered from anxiety my whole life!!!!! Anxiety gone after giving it up ! First 30 days had lots of anxiety be aware!
Now I am chill!!! Unbelievable!!!!!!
I just detoxed from caffeine, 5 or 6 weeks of misery. Anxiety, insomnia, etc. It’s just now becoming minimal. I gave away all my caffeine products, coffee and teas. I will never drink caffeine again. Terribly addictive and damaging. In addition, 36 hours following quitting caffeine, I noticed a huge decrease in my arthritis pain. Im done with it.
What besides water do you drink then?
I’ve been sober for 11 years. One thing that made this possible is quitting caffeine.
I know how this ties in too because you usually have caffeine in the morning, and after that you get anxiety. To get rid of the feelings of anxiousness you get alcohol which numbs those feelings I use to do this all the time when I quit caffeine I quit drinking too
@@spiritualak5147 Congratulations on your sobriety, from both alcohol and caffeine. 😁
Yes. One of the reasons we drink is to get the relaxed feeling from a couple of drinks. But if you're off caffeine you usually already feel relaxed so I you end up with far less cravings for alcohol. With caffeine you're always searching for something that will take the edge off. So yes I think alcohol and caffeine go hand in hand.
Quit drinking coffee 2 days ago, literally got the best sleep of my life !
Dreams are borderline psychedelic now. Good sleep = good health
Caffeine crushes your REM sleep.yes, even a "little bit"
@@pat557 What Im about to say is purely annecdotal, but caffeine might not be the issue. As I have green tea twice daily and it actually makes me calmer and aids my sleep. But even a decaf coffee can screw me over and my sleep.
Although I knew I would feel anxious & jittery after coffee or a energy drink, I would still impulsively stop and buy one on the way to work. I was addicted, but now I'm free and my energy levels are at max!
Caffeine was causing my irregular heartbeats and increasing my anxiety attacks. I quit coffee, chocolate, and soda.... needless to say, my attacks are gone
Can totally understand this connection, it goes hand in hand with the caffeine and anxiety.
"Start with one or two cups a day" It's really a bad advice. Quit it completely. And remember most tea has caffeine in it too.
Best thing I have done health wise is to quit it completely.
Mainstream celeb docs like Dr. Oz will NEVER advise quitting caffeine completely. Caffeine is too big to fail. We let it off the hook time and time again.
2-4 Cups of coffee a day??? People are nuts
I got so fed up with dry mouth, brain fog and anxiety, ESPECIALLY WITH hot coffee and sugar. Cold coffee wasn't as severe since it wouldn't dry my mouth out as much, I noticed the dryer my mouth the more anxious I got. So I stopped drinking coffee and switched to flavored tea, collagen, mct oil and a few fruit peelings.
My anxiety and racing thoughts are basically gone.
That’s awesome. I’ve been a heavy coffee drinker for the last 6 years and always thought I was an anxious person. Never linked it to caffeine until today. Starting tomorrow I’m quitting because life would be 100% better w/o constantly being on edge
I experience ALL the above on coffee 😟
@@CeliaCavalli try quitting. It’s been a month without it and I feel a lot better
@@ryanmcgregorr so good to know! I think it’s truly the last thing I need to kick to feel 💯 better again!
@@CeliaCavalli you got this 🙌
I've been ill all day due to having a coffee this morning. I usually drink decaff, but thought I'd risk it. Big mistake, anxiety and chest discomfort all day. I've had to take a sedative now and lie down. Back to decaff from now on.
After going weeks without coffee your tolerance has decreases significantly. At this point a single sip of coffee is more than enough to give you the effect that you are looking for.
I've gone without coffee for a month, and I can now feel even the tiny bit of caffeine from chocolate.
Is it safe to drink decaf if you have a little anxiety
Bro I feel u
@@blueworld011 probably but going 100 percent off would be so much better. Hard at first but so worth it. You might be shocked to learn how relaxed you start to feel. Caffeine literally distorts our perception of reality.
For many years I downplayed the effects of caffeine on my body. The anxiety, short sleep, I blamed it on everything else other than coffee. Now that I stopped drinking for 2 days, I can already see the difference. I miss the taste of coffee, though.
Same I miss the taste of coffee loaded with delicious creamer but whenever I give in I always regret it by having increased anxiety then a brutal energy crash.
It does trigger anxiety. I do one cup a week to avoid anxiety attacks
It’s very true...I experienced this when i sold my car and I wasn’t able to leave the house as often as I was and couldn’t get coffee... 1month later I bought another car and now I was able to get the coffee and the 1st day after I took the coffee I had a panic attack,I was stressed and my anxiety increased....I started being self aware and I stopped taking it
Currently having a panic attack at 3am right now after my dumbass drank coffee at 12am
Last night I had panic attack at 3 Am but I had strong coffee late in the day.
@@bikeshmehta2002 I had another panic attack like two days ago. I just had to quit coffee; caffeine in general, really. Even drinking green tea would give me the jitters. I’m over it.
Thank god for this video! About 6 months ago started experiencing panic attacks- all that resembled a heart attack so I went to the ER. At that time I was drinking espresso to stay up and keep up with my 1 years old energy. I finally realized it has to be caffeine! I started drinking decaf and I never had those symptoms again. So this video is 💯 % accurate!
Same here . I stopped about 3 weeks ago and have never felt better ... I ended up in the Er too lol 😂 with a panic attack thought I was dying with a heart attack. I’m ok now tho . Anxiety has stopped about 95% gone and not one single panic attack or feeling at all since I’ve stopped. It was so awful feeling that way every single day. Never again. I’m having a lavender chamomile tea now .☺️
@@pinkgummybear766 how about depression
❤
So how would you keep up with your 1 years old energy without caffeine? Whats the solution?
exactly ,i started my anaxiety problem after when was barista training !dont ever americano in the empty stomach ✅it'll get u into long lasting problem of shaking hand,anexiety problem,nervousness and many more !
Lol I’ve experienced this
I love my espresso and swore never to give it up. Fighting anxiety for a couple years with nothing helping. Then I tried a medium roast coffee just because and a few days later I could tell I wasn't having anxiety. Now it's over a week and I am really thinking of stopping completely. Anxiety is pure torture, it's not worth it.
Who the hell ever thought drinking burnt bean juice was a good idea? 🤣🤣🤣
LOL when you put it that way..
Wouldn't mind some of your bean juice😁
Yes I'm thirsty
some people even drink it after it left some cats ass (not joking)
I gave it up in 1965...not that I drank it much at all...Plus tea, same time. My skin is far younger than most women my age...I'm 70 now.
Truthfully speaking, The instant cure for anxiety is to understand the fact that there are infinite amount of possible outcomes in this universe and our brain only thinks of a handful . A bad outcome can become the means of a good outcome in the future. Just like that a good outcome can become the means of a bad outcome. For example, you lost your job (bad thing). But then you got a new job which is better ( bad thing led to a good outcome.) It's an endless cycle. So just go with the flow and don't think about it . 😄 Goodluck.
Good thinking. That's how I look at it too.
When you have kids that depend on you for food that philosophy doesn't really matter. Lol
Thank you
Fine. But caffeine literally steers our body and brain into an anxiety focused state by activating our primitive fight or flight hormones. You can probably achieve nirvana with caffeine but you're working with one hand tied behind your back.
instant cure lmao all the psychologists must know about this it will cure all anxiety tomorrow
I have panic attacks, yes, coffee triggers my anxiety.
Me too suffers from panic disorders for 4 years, it comes on and off but definitely all caffeine related stuffs will make me feel like I'm going to die of heart attack, tingling, nausea and feeling of doomed. Avoid it at all cost!
i thought this was obvious, it's simple, i drink coffee and my heart rate increases, its a drug addiction. i drink coffee and my stress response increases.. off coffee it feels like im in paradise
I stopped all caffeine products 7 months ago with the exception of a cup or two of coffee or tea once a month if needed (for example if I have to stay up to study or drive really late at night). I feel like I’m using coffee for what it was intended for rather than for survival. I used to drink 4+ cups a day, I did this for about 8 years. Im so glad I quit! I feel so much better. I don’t get super tired in the middle of the day (the crash) and I don’t get those horrible headaches if I don’t have coffee first thing in the morning.
I used to drink it. But it's been more than a year now that if I have a sip, I feel like I'm dying... It's so damn unfair :/
Oh wow!! Did you get Covid at any time? And noticed a change?
The withdrawals from quitting caffeine can be far worse, and a lot longer, than what people have been lead to believe. Any substance that alters neurotransmitters should not be taken lightly.
I cant even drink coffee anymore...not even 1 cup
same. But i can have 2 cups of green tea (chinese) just fine. It helps me relax actually
Quitting your favorite drink is nothing when you compare the temporary suffering with the permanent benefits that you get afterwards.
Yesterday I drink a cup of coffee. It gave me so much anxiety and it made me so uncomfortable. I’m not a regular coffee drinker, but I know that when I drink coffee, I don’t sleep for at least two days.
I get a racing heart from drinking coffee and recently switched to a quality organic biodynamic coffee (hard to find) and my racing heart went away. But when u go to a restaurant or coffee show and I have a coffee my racing heart comes back. There is a biodynamic coffee out of Berkeley, CA which is great, can’t remember the name. ☕️
See the problem for me is coffee helps me focus with my adhd. But it also sends me on fight or flight after a while. What do i do now!
I started drinking coffee and over years I got in trouble - I felt like a hunted animal, and was suspicious and confrontational at work. It ended up destroying my health because I would go to coffee shops and got addicted. I worked a night shift job and it made the sleep a lot worse. I stopped hitting deep sleep when I did not drink coffee, and coffee would cause these deep sleep periods followed by anxiety and sweat attacks waking every several hours.
After sever panic attacks i've realized every time i stop caffine i start feeling normal, when i feel normal and want a cup of coffee i go right back to being severely anxious even from a couple of sips. Guess i've developed a sensitivity to it.
I just detoxed from caffeine, 5 or 6 weeks of misery. Anxiety, insomnia, etc. It’s just now becoming minimal. I gave away all my caffeine products, coffee and teas. I will never drink caffeine again. Terribly addictive and damaging.
Coffee makes me absolutely exhausted and lasts all day. I feel it's really affecting my brain chemistry. Got to give it up, not worth it.
Good
@@lostsoul4317 wtf
I had a iced coffee from starbucks 4 hours ago (only 1 shot of expresso!) and really regretting it- feeling awful, hearts beating fast, sweating, anxiety is so bad I hope this goes away soon. Im drinking lots of water but its not helping!
How do you feel now
@@hamzasharaf3212 Hey so much better thanks for asking! I have stuck with matcha latte which relaxes me and herbal teas. Love coffee but definitely not worth the anxiety! Such a scary experience, learnt my lesson! Did you have a similar experience? Meditation and lots of water helps!
Hey, the Same happened to me and I had exact same reaction and it went away after a while, and even nowadays when I have a higher dose i feel very bad. I have it under control but starbucks always feels extra caffeinated.
this is me right now, just had a venti medium roast 3 hours ago. the sky is falling again.. i never learn.. 😭
Caffeine Blues-EXCELLENT BOOK!
Suffered many years with anxiety and panic attacks
I'm doing much bet on half caf ,I drink a few cups in the am and occasionally one after dinner
But much better now
Exactly after having coffee I had anxiety and it took many cups to know anxiety is because of the coffee …
I get anxiety where I feel like I have what I call a drowning effect where I feel I can't breathe . And stress out it comes and goes
I also feel like I can't breath, did you quit coffee? If yes how do you feel ????
Thanks.
Its a drug so what do we really expect? The claw of the devil mate.😈
I had a cup of coffee everyday for about 3 years straight. I am going cold turkey right now. I'm going through anxiety and panic attacks.
Would have never ever guessed this would cause this for me.
How do you do now? I want to stop to drink coffee too
@@priyashinde6164 so.. the trick is to ween yourself off of it. Lower the amount over time or the amount you drink over time. Don't just stop. Your body will freak out...
@@jasean21 Thank you, I'll try
The interesting thing for me is I can drink coffee but I must have a meal with it otherwise I will experience panic attack symptoms. If I drink coffee without food I will 100% have a panic attack or get HANGRY.
Literally so mad and so hungry.. lol
The same thing :)
Caffeen number one cause of hypertension
Got off coffee and anxiety completely went away! For those looking for a good coffee alternative, Dandy Blend tastes the closest to coffee and it’s delicious! 😋
Hey Tina, how are you feeling now? Going to quit tomorrow
I'm going off on 1st August 2022, totally addicted + exhausted.
Started having anxiety attacks as soon as I lied down to go and sleep. Felt like I was going to have a heart attack. Quiting caffeine helped immediately.
As I have gotten older I have had to lower caffeine to sleep. And with dropping growth hormone levels as we age, sleep is critical.
Deez days doctors oz I’m been losing hair on my mustache
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
I suspect I have an undiagnosed mood disorder. I've cut back on my morning caffeine intake to calm my thoughts and temper.
It's best not to label yourself that you have a 'disorder'. It's just that just like anyone else you are more sensitive to something than others. For me even one cup of coffee can screw me over for next 2 nights.
blame the drug, not yourself. We're really not meant to consume caffeine.
Ever since I got the 4th dose of the covid vaccine I developed an intolerance/sensitivity to caffeine. I would get racing heartbeats and turn to full blown panic attacks everyday for a week. I’m able to control it now. I had so many tests done and thought something was wrong with my heart but everything was fine. My doctor told me to avoid anything with caffeine : coffee, cocoa, decaf coffee (cocoa), chocolate, tea, energy drinks. And it’s working. I cried when I made hot chocolate and realized I can’t have any lol 😅😭 it really sucks because I love coffee I enjoy making coffee and now I can’t have it. I can’t even go to a coffee shop anymore. It’s very hard and life changing
I drink expresso but only before gym. Maybe we must burn all the energy from caffeine but if we don't burn calories in intense activy then coffee is bad for our health
wow, i’m literally going through what you just said. I’ve always drank black coffee, energy drinks etc. now i can’t drink anything at all because i feel like i’m gonna lose it. so crazy.
@@abelsietecuatro9249 Have you came to any conclusions about this theory?
@@Rollgott before going to the gym coffee was bad for me. I would get heartbeats. But now Im fine drinking expresso
@@abelsietecuatro9249 Ok thanks 👍
If I drink three sips, I am deep into anxiety and I seem to move very quickly in my normal moves. So I don’t allow myself to even get one cup so sad
I've had 3 anxiety attacks in the last year and the common denominator was coffee and weed
Update , I cut the coffee off for months now , still smoke weed and I haven't had any issues at all , I guess I'm just weak cuz coffee was definitely causing some problems for me , I just drink tea now , way better
hey man I was the same as you. I smoked weed and drank coffee and I would get immediately feelings of dizziness, nausea, lots of tiredness but above all, problems breathing.. really shallow breath. the shallow breath was what was triggering my anxiety.
first i though it was the weed but when I quit coffee and continued smoking weed I figured out that it was coffee all along giving me all those symptoms.
nowadays I smoke only weed, fine as hell, able to have full anxiety ridden breaths and no nausea or tiredness.
I got a feeling that she’s going to scream “KAFFEIN!” And pass out
Coffee will destroy your Life
I knew this bruh whhen i was in my teens and 20s .. i knew it brought anxiety and that was the sole reason i stopped
Thanks doctor !!! I’m going to quit coffee like right now .
Thank you for this discussion, now I know why I feel like my depression increasing a little after have some coffee
"Turns on things..." 🤣 Dr. Oz doesn't want to talk above our heads. I really wanted to know what it did.
I didn’t have a cup yesterday and had a really strong cup today and felt like I was gonna die for hours caused me so much anxiety and just overall unwell feeling
Yes connection between caffeine and anxiety , anyone who has anxiety can suffer from caffeine much more than others
I love the taste and smell of coffee. But I hate the jitters and uneasiness that come along with it.
I drink coffee here and there, but yesterday I noticed I had no coffee, and was mentally fine. Today I had coffee and my anxiety was through the roof. So I will have no coffee for a week and see what state of mind I will be at. If it’s coffee that causes my anxiety, then I will quit coffee for good.
No coffee for 30 days. Better sleep. When I get tired I take a power nap and I have energy again. Will highly recommend caffeine, it will however most likely take 3-6 months before you are completely back to normal
People also forget to account for caffeine containing foods and certain medications
I accidentally clicked on a Dr Oz video, FML
This is true. This happened to me. I had the worst panic attack after drinking coffee. I thought I was having heart attack and went to ER. Now you cannot make drink coffee or any drinks with caffeine.
It happened to me today.. jitters heart palpitations..panic feelings of dread..
Thank God I found this clip
My First shot of espresso was same day we declared war after 9-11.
My first panic attack followed within hours of same day.
This is definitely relevant. I'm doing theater and I've basically developed an addiction to energy drinks to keep up.
If i drink one small cup.my eye will be fish eyes 👁👁
This is why i scared to drink coffee or Nescafe, it make me nervous
Dr Oz has already heard about guaraná from Brazil, it has the same effect as coffee has in a centenary city here in Brazil that uses guaraná every day.
My unscientific theory is that caffeine stimulates dopamine, and as it subsides, there are micro-withdrawals, which is the "anxiety" feeling.
Basically. It initially stimulates dopamine. That's why we tend to feel great for the first few hours after drinking a cup. But as it works its way through our system, it activated cortisol--the feel bad hormone.
Quitting caffeine is damn hard. Harder than both alcohol and smoking for me
For me replacing with green tea helped. I actually replaced with black but then switched to green (chinese one) and it actually helps me relax and have a sense of alertness.
me too.
she is so correct.
It really is a tolerance thing,I been a coffee drinker all my life and starting out I would get anxiety but now I can drink it and fall asleep lol..it just doesn't do that to me anymore. Now if you are prone to anxiety anyway..caffeine may be something you want to avoid all together. Nicotine to for that matter,both stimulants and if you have that issue anyway it makes it worse. I think it depends on the person not the drug,no matter which drug it is.
Your body is probaly fucked up of you can drink coffee and go right to sleep haha
I used to cut out the middle man and eat the coffee out of the jar with a spoon, But these days I am one one coffee a day and I couldn't be happy.
Caffeine started giving me the strangest anxiety symptoms. Feel like my body is just shutting down and I just get like dizzy and out of it for about 15-20 mins
yeah i drank coffee on an empty stomach and felt irritable and dizzy and tired??? full of anxiety and completely ruined my day
I had a kind of scary dizzy episode after drinking a large cup of coffee a month ago. made me go back off. F caffeine.
Have anxiety disorder + caffeine. Omg
I really don't know, how I can control myself from consuming caffeine. If I don't consume 5-6 cups daily, I can not function properly in my work. Although, I have tried not consuming caffeine, it just shut myself down. I feel more aware and sharp with caffeine. But then again, anxiety is an issue for me too.
Cut it slow. If you drink 6 cups every day - start drinking 5 and a half for a week, 10 days. Then cut to 5. again - a week/ten days , then 4 and a half, ect.
@@alexforce9 Yeah I have been doing that.
@@shadmanimtiaz1874 weaning down doest work just quit cold turkey take a week off from work or do it in the weekends
@@hanskazan7403 thank you for the advice
If you can't function without caffeine, then you should look at your diet and what you eat, its simple as that.
I've only ever had a few panic attacks in my life. They were all induced by some type of substance. Over the counter tylonel with a stimulant in the ingredients, multi vitamins that have way too much B vitamins in it, which overly increases energy in some people causing these attacks. And new today coffee caused one of these to me for about 5 minutes or so.... It was so weird when it happened too... and I instantly knew it was the coffee cause I had it about 30minutes - 1 hr before hand... I rather not drink coffee again. Used to drink it off and on...
It’s either complete abstinence or continue to suffer the side effects.
You will never experience the goodness of being caffeine free. Caffeine is poison. Even a little will kill you slowly😮
Very true. Even when I only drink a cup of green tea in the morning, when I quit completely I'm shocked by how much my body notices. ANY amount of caffeine will compromise your mind and body.
I quit this garbage today after having an attack. Coffee never really made me feel alert. For me it was more of a placebo thing... then all of a sudden after 1 cup today it went bad.
Coffee used to give me increased anxiety and panic at one cup a day. After years if having 1-2 cups a day i dont feel anyhing. Basically feel like a zombie now but more calm ill say.
quit and you feel renewed naturally energy within a relatively short amount of time. isn't life too short to feel like a zombie?
"We don't want you to quit your coffee!!" Best not to upset those coffee sponsors eh? Also 2-4 cups is ridiculous. Also the recommendation is 6 ounce cups which are tiny, but it's still to much.
I thought it was just me
Don't listen to these people and the recommendations that you should have A-day, Is there is no such thing as moderation, Is it you drink coffee or you don't. Would you say use cocaine at moderation no you don't, Do you abuse cocaine or you don't there's no such thing as moderation . . . Everyone starts at moderation and then escalates to full blown addicts. Coffee is terrible for you do not drink it there is no moderation do not drink it.
yes abstinence as actually easier than moderation.
Thanks Doc🙂🙏
I stopped drinking coffee cuz I now have Zenzedi . I recently drank coffee and I felt terrible (without the zenzedi) and anxious.
What’s zenzedi ?
I quit coffee and lost my job. Started drinking it again. I got a call to return to work. COFFEE IS SO MYSTERIOUS.
I do one cup. That's enough to get my doot on.
if i can kick coffee that would save my expenses incredibly
Why does he sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the intro?! 😂 GET IN THE CHOPPA! IT'S THE COFFEE ANXIETY CONNECTION!
Dr.OZ even decaf gives me anxiety what should I do?
Drink Pakistani Chai Tea. It has way leas caffeine and tastes a lot better.
decaf has caffeine. Just go 100 PERCENT off caffeine.
