Caffeine addiction

I think I need to get a grip on my caffeine addiction.  I'm up to 8 to ten cups a day and last night I was completely amped.  Starting to feel edgy and having trouble going to sleep..which is completely not like me.  I did some research on it this week and I ordered some coffee alternative that is still mostly organic to try.  It's called Teeccino.  I got the variety pack so I can try different flavors.  I doubt I'll be able to give it up altogether.  I LOVE coffee. Maybe I can cut it in half though.  Hopefully I will feel more relaxed. 


Today was my last regular work day with a full lunch hour before school starts so I took myself out to lunch.  I even treated myself to a chocolate chip cookie with my salad.


I absolutely cannot wait to be done with school. 


Of course, now that I ate and feel sleepy I need a cup of coffee.  blaaa haaaa ha

Ok, this is a silly and obvious suggestion, but what about decaf? I love coffee too, sadly I can't really have any at the moment because of GERD.

yes, most decaf I have tried gives me horrible heartburn. this stuff I'm going to try is caffeine and acid free.

Hahahaha..I always know if I've had too much by the way I feel anxious and have those stupid heart palps. Ugh..
Caffeine free? Going to the dark side? lol
I wish you luck.
It has been one of my vices forever. Cannot quit. Won't probably.
