Caffeine Withdrawal After White tea

What to expect

• - People who stop white tea often notice the first headache or fog within 12 to 24 hours.
• - At roughly 84mg/day from white tea, low energy and irritability are common through days 1 to 3.
• - With a moderate 84mg/day intake, cravings tend to appear around your usual white tea time.
• - Sleep quality often improves after a few days, even if the first nights feel restless.

A taper plan starting point

• - Step 1: cut white tea to about 40mg/day for a week (smaller or fewer servings).
• - Step 2: drop to about 20mg/day for another week.
• - Step 3: reach 0mg, or hold a small amount if that feels more sustainable.
• - Replace white tea breaks with water, a short walk, or a 20-minute nap to ride out dips.
• - Keep steady sleep and meal times; that alone eases many withdrawal days.
