So, yesterday I decided 'Well, I've quit the fags, let's sort this awful cola/caffeine addiction out too! I know, I'll go cold turkey and just drink squash!'
After going to bed at 9pm yesterday feeling rubbish That gif is pretty much how I've felt today. My head is on the verge of explosion with pain, I feel sick, hot, cold, urgh, so very effing ILL.
So, yeah, no cold turkey me thinks, baby steps.
Anyone else cut down/quit on caffeine? How did you do it?

Spooky... that clip looks like an exploding battery! I'm not into cola, but I do drink a lot of coffee, but my main problem is cutting down the whisky. When are they going to invent an eCig equivalent for alchohol. ???

I felt like this coming off the cigs, it might be the chemical withdrawl Sassy? Why don't you get a good 6 weeks off the cigs behind you then sort out the cola later? If it is the chemical withdrawl it might last a week but I swear on my life it does pass. Hope you feel much better today xx

lol My Dad actually had a serious Caffeine addiction, it hospitalised him! What helped him was plenty of Green Vegtables, coated in butter. Courgettes, Broad beans, frozen or fresh peas. Also Baby sweetcorn and beansprouts ......... You know, it really did help him. I tried it when I quit smoking and it seemed to help me also. Who knows. Jag. (Still drinks Coke though .....)
