You may think an extra cup is helping you in the moment, but it could be doing more harm by increasing anxious thoughts and feelings. The same goes for drinking caffeine in the late afternoon and evening. Caffeine during this time can disturb sleep cycles and make you more anxious the next day.
Here are ways to be mindful of your caffeine habits:
- Limit your caffeine intake each day. Do this gradually as there are caffeine withdrawal symptoms.
- Switch caffeine types, like replacing coffee with black tea.
- Avoid caffeine at least eight hours before bed.
