The coffee at my firm is free and I think it's ruining my life

I did not drink coffee before this job. I started in July. It is now March and I have had four cups today and it is 10am. There is a machine on every floor. Nobody has ever mentioned this being a problem. I think they want this to happen.

I do not know what my resting heart rate is anymore but I assume it is high. I bought a Whoop last month and then stopped looking at it because the data was upsetting.

Has anyone successfully cut back or do I just ride this out until I leave for PE.

It's a willpower thing bro, this is not healthy

Try to keep it to 2 cups a day max
