The hack for this is to get cold brew (more caffeinated and tastes good cold) and sip it slowly throughout the day alongside water.
This is how I avoid a crash when I do drink coffee. The negative side effects of caffeine make me want to end it all though so I tend to avoid drinking it with any regularity these days.
I do caffeine and antidepressants. Are you saying if I quit caffeine I might be able to remove the antidepressants?
That's certainly a possibility, but I'm no psychiatrist. If the coffee started before the antidepressants then I would say it's worth a try at the very least.
For me it's less depression and more intense anxiety that can lead to depression. People look at me like I'm crazy when I bring it up though so maybe it's just me.
