Theacrine - will i get withdrawal like with caffeine?

So 6 months ago i quit caffeine, which was one of the best decisions in my life, i had so insanely many benefits from quitting, slept better, could read books again, adhd symtoms less, my digestive issues gone, my body odor better etc there are tons of more stuff but ill just get to the point.
So, there was quite a withdrawal quitting caffeine, just as with any drug since caffeine is a drug, just a more socially tolerated one, so it wasn't too unexpected. About a month of miserable fatigue.
Im wondering how similar theacrine is to caffeine. It seems super similar but people also say no jitter and no crash so that sounds good. What im curious about is how much of a withdrawal its going to get me. I know there is no such thing as a free lunch so im expecting the same as with caffeine, you simply borrow energy and pay it back one way or another.

Would the same points you make about theacrine also apply to methylliberine/dynamine? (I know the later is a lot shorter in duration, for better or worse, but otherwise don't have a sense if they are much different otherwise.)

Not really, no. Methylliberine is stronger than theacrine. It is a much more abrupt effect that goes away quicker. Generally when you have very quick strong effects that dissipate quickly, the chance for tolerance goes up. However, I have not really done long-term analysis of taking just methylliberine by itself. So it is harder for me to say for sure. I almost always combine it with caffeine, as it works much better in combo.
