Ok, You are having WAY too much whey protein powder. It is not a good idea to use it to *top up* your protein.
This one thing could be contributing to your anxiety.

You can have less protein. Use real food sources.

Also if you cut out coffee all at once, you would get rebound anxiety.

But it would be the amount of protein powder, I am pretty sure.

Also, :h11) it is time to do step 6.
