I've not had a coffee in a week. Since then, I've had headaches everyday, super tired and my anxiety is through the roof. Anybody else had this? Today's been the worst

Sadly typical symptoms but they will ease off soon.
I gave up a Diet Coke habit and around 10 days later I started to feel better and by day 14 was no longer getting any symptoms.

Hope you feel better soon.

I remember having double vision at one point and couldn’t walk a straight line. I found it really frightening!

I thought I was dying when I went cold turkey!
2 weeks, max, you'll be fine

If you’ve dropped coffee - just make sure you are replacing the fluid with something else though - water, herbal tea etc (obvs not vodka!).
