Often, people who rapidly reduce their caffeine intake have reported being irritable, finding it tough to concentrate at work, being extra nervous, restless, and feeling sleepy at odd times of the day. Headaches are common, and in extreme cases, nausea and vomiting can occur. At the same time, a major study has found fewer suicides among coffee drinkers than those who abstained from caffeine altogether. So best not to quit your caffeine fix completely, but perhaps you should wean yourself down to a healthy level- slowly.

Most people slowing their caffeine intake say that reducing their daily fix by a rate of 1/2 cup of coffee a day makes the change relatively pain-free. Others count their weekly intake and aim for three to five cups less per week.

Keep a tally of how much coffee you consume it might surprise you and it will definitely come in handy when you decide how to bring your coffee intake back to a healthy level.

    @Gerard – I don’t agree with you. It’s an old wive’s tale that coffee stunts your growth and I REALLY disagree that caffeine is as dangerous as speed.

    Taylore- yes
    James- I’m from canada timmies xl would like a word

    Now for the real reason I commented.. ADD and caffien. I was diagnosed at a young age with ADHD(later changed to ADD). Like Steve says the average prescription is speed but alot of people like myself find it to be too much. The negative repercussions of taking speed on a regular bases is for lack of a better term very bad. Caffeine affects an ADD person differently because ya, could drink half a pot of coffee at 11:30 and fall asleep at midnight. At the same time my it goes the same with any stimulant and ADD. Long story short, caffeine works great but is a physically addictive substance and even though its legal and in everyday life: be careful. It’s known to stunt growth, prevent sleep(as little as one cup could do that), cause “jitters” or tremors that are sometimes incurable(sometimes they just go away), and worst of all its addictive. I love caffeine it helps me regulate my life, but i know its just as dangerous as speed. Take with care and enjoy.

    I had never tried real coffee before until now and it is the best thing that has ever happened to me! The only thing I fear is that it will stunt my growth because I am still at a growing age. Is that true?
