btw now im down to midol only for cramps (which i get realy bad) and 4 sodas a day 2 if i have a energy drink. oh and about 3.78 leters of green tea (green tea is good for the heart)
I totally understand you - it's ridiculous that caffeine is legally sold in highly concentrated amounts when it is one of America's number one addictions. Just because it's "socially acceptable," that definitely doesn't make it good for anybody. I struggled with getting off caffeine, and it didn't work until I changed my diet and sleep schedule.
I found a great diet to provide steady energy throughout the day here: http://www.timesmartme.com/timetips/diet/steady-energy-diet/... it works gradually so that your body has time to adjust to the changes. I force myself to go to bed at the same time every night too, and now I don't even crave caffeine after two months! You can do it; don't give up-
All the best,
Jack
