Edit: pu'er, black, green, white tea. Love it all and drink it more than I drink coffee. No need to start a culture war; taste is as individual as humour.

I'm trying to cut out coffee and tea is one of my weaknesses. So soothing...

But the whole point for me is to avoid caffeine entirely, so resist I must. And if I may quote the comic,

IT FUCKING SUCKS

Have you found a non caffeinated alternative? Also weaning yourself off caffeine works so much better.

So I've been told, but I've always done best with brutish force. I'm very habitual, so I don't want to put myself into a position where I may end up drinking more coffee.

I had a sip of some non-caffeinated coffee once and it tasted bleh so I haven't bothered looking for alternatives. I'd rather play mental gymnastics in my own gym, if that makes sense.

I can tell you that there are decent decaf options, and you should never forget that you habits also enforce that a new coffee taste will be harder to accept. Maybe to get you going you go off normal coffee cold turkey for a bit and then start up with some decaf. I did it this way when i stopped using tabaco and switched to vaping pure product. Before, the flavours were all off, now i can never go back to smoking with a flame :)
