I hope the caffeine kick is going well, but read this just in case! You may want to stop and get a can of Folgers on the way home tomorrow! :)
Seriously though, this is some pretty scarey stuff. What's next? Smoking? PMS? Credit Rating?

Yeah. Disorder. I saw a post about it somewhere and just shook my head. *sigh*
Back in 2003 or so I stopped 2 pots of coffee a day cold turkey. The headaches were brutal for about the first week and then never noticed a difference. Granted, started back on coffee not too long after, but at a much diminished rate...
As per the thread's original post, I have found that I can handle decaf and the "1/2-caf" stuff fairly well. Similarly, I can handle a single 32oz soda in the morning.
None of the above replaces a nice full bodied cup of delicious ambrosia whenever ya wanted it though :(

Thankfully I’ve never been affected by caffeine. Heck I can drink two energy drinks in a row and not feel a difference.
Look on the bright side at least your teeth won’t keep turning brown. ;D

I actually have to be careful with my caffeine intake since I've fought with insomnia ever since I was a kid. As long as I limit myself to 2 cups in the morning and nothing after noon I'm ok, but if I have any caffeine after lunch I won't be sleeping that night.
I have enough nervous energy anyway that I don't really need it. It helps wake me up but I'm usually fidgeting at my desk all day long as it is.
