Hi Lem

I too quit the Caffeine a few weeks back. I still drink tea but caffeine free now and to be honest i have found no difference. No side effects just as i was before. I am glad i am not having my daily caffeine intake now so from me to you good luck Lem, you can do this ;)

Hi. I quit 5 years ago. I drink deaf tea and coffee and enjoy it just as much. Still eat chocolate though which has it in so not totally caffeine free!if I do ever need to stay awake a caffeine coffee does the trick! Unlike just one fag, I can have just one coffee caffeine and stay off it!

I am the same as nuttynursee, I stopped the caffeine at the same time I quit smoking, I also went on to the decaf tea and to be honest I didnt get any side effects either so I am sure you will be fine, have you decided to give up because you have like me read that caffeine makes you want to smoke more.

unlike you lovely people I did have a dull headache all week-end after about twelve hours,there is a caffeine culture at work,my levels were way to high.

Still Tuesday morning now and forgot my alliterative, so had a tea with the guys this morning, but have grabbed the herbal now and am back on track. pangs and cravings aside.....:)

well done to you but I would never do this. I admit I am totally addicted to caffine and becauses its not actually that bad for you im never gunna quit. I have at least 5 cups of coffee a day as well as 2-3 cans of monster. If it gets to 10am and I havent had any yet I feel awfull and get really bad headaches. Good luck to you!

I was so cross with myself, when I woke up and it felt so real that I almost...still feel like I cheated my self the only redeeming feature of it was that my friend from Canada,Dan, was there so that is not possible so i cant have actually done it phew!
