The irritability and headaches are one thing, but if I do not get some sleep soon I worry that this may kill me.

I never know if post as this one is serious but,if it is, seek medical help. This is something that can be resolved.

Yeah if you quit cold turkey you’ll be in for some pain. Should only last for about a week or two then your body will adapt to not having it anymore.

it has been pretty bad, i am going to have a cup of coffee now to take the edge off. when i quit drinking alcohol I transfered one addiction to another and started drinking eight cups of coffee a day. This is child's play compared to quitting alcohol, but it sux.

Good luck. I cut back quite a bit some time ago, but I feel you. Headaches and sense of being in a bit of fog were rough. My advice would be to slowly taper off. I was drinking 6-10 cups a day. Now have 2-3 which I still enjoy in the morning. Ugh, you do have my sympathy!!

I think this is the way to go. With alcohol you have to stop cold turkey. After 1/2 a cup I feel MUCH better and feel like I could go to sleep right now..

Glad the coffee helped. Hopefully you’ll be feeling better in a few more days.

I was miserable for three days. Hang in there. You will love not being dependent on caffeine in the mornings.

I think caffeine is great. A good cup of coffee in the morning hits the spot. I drink 2 each morning and that is it.

Took me a year to build up to 8 cups a day. I like your approach.

Also, while cutting back,etc., don't forget about half caf! Easy to adapt to.

I gradually cut back on caffeine--am off completely now. I didn't have a problem.

the same time...cold turkey. I am healthier now (8 months later) than I have been in years, but would not recommend the cardiac arrest that gave me the willpower to do it!

My father in law had the widow-maker surgery a year ago. Still can’t eat certain foods or drink certain drinks. He can’t stomach it. Crazy how that experience turns your whole physiology upside down.

But it's looked down upon by some employers and fellow plane passengers I've found.
