I can start and stop drinking coffee any day of the year. I drank it for the last 2 years of school, and in between my school and work term i stopped for a month and a half. I've also went from drinking waaay too much energy drinks to not having any.
[QUOTE="mindstorm"]I make a living by way of coffee. By making it. And selling it. As I do this I drink it too. Hmmm... I have had some tonight. More than some maybe. You're going to quit caffeine?

I did give it up once for 6 months back in 04. Got a big ol' ache that pulsated in my frontal lobes for about 3 weeks. Actually gave it up the same time as 2 others I knew - we used to converse regularly, working like a small support group for ex-addicts. Sadly I fell off the wagon eventually - I just craved just that one final hit and before I knew it I was banging up 3 or 4 cups a day.
I drink, on average, 3-4 cups a month (usually when at the nursing home, in waiting rooms, etc). So yes, I can, and for the most part do, easily live without it.
