> too often people promote a quick fix type of thing

Though, to be fair, caffeine is a very strong stimulant. So likely, when you stop using it, things will change for you.

I do a coffee fast (for months) every so often. I suggest you try it, we can share more anecdotes when you're on the other side.

I think self-awareness plays a very strong role here. If you're addicted to caffeine, as many are, you know how it makes you feel. Some choose to ignore the effects, others also choose to ignore them...

Likely addiction to anything, if broken for a time, will yield results that one can measure against.

And yes, stopping addiction is a quick fix.
