I encourage experimentation. Try not drinking tea for a week. Do you have any caffeine withdrawl symptoms; headache, irritability, depression, nausea? If yes, consider pushing the bounds, try abstaining for several weeks. Compare how you feel waking up and what your presence of mind is during the hours you would normally be consuming tea. Try to get a feel for your quality of sleep; the dreams the first week coming off can be memorable! After all this, grab a cup of tea and see just how euphoric it can be. Our bodies are amazing things and sometimes we are rewarded for paying them a bit more mind.

All of this said, I am not a medical professional, take these words at your own risk.

Individual body chemistry varies widely, some are certainly more prone to mental disorder. Sensitivity to caffeine is something that can change with exposure, age, and a myriad of other factors. I always encourage people to experiment with sobriety; simply abstain from your habit. My own experiences with withdrawl from even small amounts, 35-70mg daily, were enough to convince me its best to avoid the daily habit.
