I've quit coffee many times. Like some people mentioned, drink water. LOTS of water. Like, enough so that you have to pee like a racehorse.

That was my logic when I quit first time. I wondered how the hell I will stay awake. I figured....if I drink water, I will need to pee, and if you need to pee, you're not tired.

And fuk, you drink enough of that stuff, you will get HIGH. You will get an alert -buzz unlike anything coffee can do for you. But drink ALOT. I'm talking like 3 liters within a few hours.

Sure enough, people have actually DIED from too much water. But I heard you need to drink like 11 liters in order to be in danger of that, so don't worry. Just drink enough to get a good kick.

I'm actually kind of amazed that people get addicted to caffeine. I've never drank enough to even come close to any sort of dependency on it. I often have a cup of tea in the mornings at work, and an occasional soda at lunch or in the afternoon, but I could go a week without any caffeine and never notice. I guess some people just become addicted to substances easier than others... whether it's caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, or other drugs. Crazy stuff.
