So I decided over the weekend that I'm going to end my addiction with coffee. I have it so bad that if I don't have coffee in the morning, I have a headache around lunch time. I know it's the fawkin' caffeine...so I'm gonna end it. I have a bottle of Tylenol to help with the impending headaches... Does anyone know if this will work?
better stick with midol, sis

Hey Raul, I quit caffeine cold-turkey in January of last year. Totally got over the addiction, so I know it can be done.

Drink lots of water. That tends to help with the headache.

coffee & soft drinks (energy drinks as well) & orange juice
whatever drink you buy will make you fat if you just sit in the office and don't do anything but go on the computer.

sugar & caffeine always have a crash

Yup heaps of water helps, but yes it's a world of pain. The thing about drinking more than 2 cups of coffee a day is that is starts working against the absorption of certain vitamins and minerals like B12.

I drink 3 cups a day usually, but only weak instant coffee, not the crack from starbucks and co. which will get you craving strong stuff. The money saved is extraordinary though, try putting the starbucks money straight into a container, you'll have a holliday to hawai at the end of the year from it, no shit.
