Well I'll tell you what i did... \nI went cold turkey... just stop... don't cut back, just stop... and r.w Knudsen has excellent spritzers... basically just sparkling fruit juice... of course if it's the caffeine you're worried about just switch to caffeine free soda...

Going to the doctor is the first step - they can give you medication to take away cravings.  Then contact AA - they will give help and advice.

1. Is something upsetting you emotionally?\n2. Are you drinking caffeine too much or too late at night?\n3. Do you have complete peace and quiet just before and during bedtime?\n\nUncover the problem by observing your environmnt. Then do whatever it takes to do away with the culprit.

Caffeine, and LOTS of it.

first, do NOT reduce the amount of cigarettes you smoke gradually.  that's just stupid.  the people at http://www.smokeawaysupport.com/index.php? helped me a lot, and will help you too.  half of them don't even use the product the site is for.  you need to stop full force, all at once.  www.lungusa.com also has good resources, and even a lesson/regimen on quitting smoking.\n\nthings that helped me were drinking lots of cranberry juice, to combat the sudden eratic changes in my body's sugar levels.  halving my intake of coffee, as caffeine has a stronger affect on those bodies that are recouperating from loss of nicotine.  mental imagery helped me a little.  i started doing some simple excercises instead of smoking.  a craving lasts less than 30 seconds, the mind just draws it out longer, and can be quenched with a glass of water as easy as a cigarette.

Of course, you already mentioned caffeine.  A catnap or two might help you keep from crashing before the day is out - taking a short 15 or 20  minute rest once or twice in the day.  Any longer and you'll sleep too deeply and won't be able to get up again.\n\nLots of walking around in the fresh air might help, and taking as many breaks as possible from monotonous tasks to move around.\n\nStay as active and busy as possible.

Yes sugar is very addicting, as well is caffine, I tried cuttong back on caffine awhile back and boy after 48hrs you have a headache from he**  but after 72hrs or so it will go away.. i have since went back to caffine, cuttong back on sugar dud same for me, just a little at a time, Eat some fruit if you are craving sugar like Grapes, Cherry's things with the natural sugars

The most important is to really want to give up. If you are strongly motivated, you have a high chance to succeed. Remove any habit that is strongly associated with smoking (coffee, alcohol) and, if you want, use either the patch or prescription medication that helps with nicotine addiction. Once there, reward yourself for every cigarette-free day, week, month, year... Celebrate success and share with your friends and family. You can do it!

I was ' addicted to coca cola' i decided i need to quit  and i did it in a weird way . From coke i switched to sprite then to Sparkling water in which i put lemon, and then i switched to plain water. Give it a try. You might find it easy to switch to sparking water and then after awhile to water.\nAlways keep in mind that sodas are so bad for you.Filled with sugar and chemicals that can give you anything from anxiety attacks to ulcer and diabetes\nBest of luck to you:)

Caffeine is a drug! Try to balance it out by drinking just as much water through out the day.

Besides the obvious  (taking a pill)...\n\nCould be withdrawl from Caffeine (if you stopped drinking coffee or Cola).   Or need to get Eyes checked.

Exercise, run, yoga, meditation, get a punching bag to punch.  \nIf you drink coffee, tea or cola--best to switch to the decaffeinated kind (gradually, so you don't get caffeine withdrawal).  \nEat less sugar, and note that chocolate has both caffeine and sugar.\nYou really might want to phone the doctor about this--you may, or may not, need some medication.

Don't let it get to you honey!  Remember, it's nothing but a bunch of 1's and 0's!! ;)\n\nAlso, in cases when I've run out of coffee and needed that all important jolt of caffeine:  munch on chocolate-covered espresso beans then follow with a tracer of Jolt soda.  \n\nActually while you're the market, can you pick up some tofu for me? I ran out. :)))))\n\nKeep smiling! :)

There is no concrete answer as genetics and lifestyle habits will determine the effect of long time caffeine utilization.  I believe i is great but then again I have no job and I am also addicted to Yahoo Answers...I bet Yahoo will come out w/ an article about how great Yahoo Answers are but realistically they are killing productivity worldwide while preparing a propaganda campaign of subconscious self promotion and advertising

I find, generally speaking, that a couple of shots of tequila work VERY well for getting rid of coffee breath.\n\nJust stay away from the boss for a while...

I'm a University student who is always staying up late or pulling all nighters. The worst thing you can do is have a quick nap. Once your body starts shutting down its so hard to get it going again. Drinking pop and energy drinks are ok but not great because they contain sugar. Sugar makes you energized but once it burns off it brings you to an ultimate low. So the best caffeine is a cup of straight black coffee because it doesn't have such a bad come down. Plus those energy drinks have some weird things in them and they cost alot (since I need several drinks for an all nighter). The best suggestion is to study or do homework not at home. If you have access to your school at night like a University go there. Less distractions the better for your attention. I also know people who take ritalin to help them study because gives them a boosted concentration. I don't suggest this if a doctor didn't prescribe it to you. I do know people that use it when they don't have ADD and they have said some good things. Since it is illegal take medication and the side effects are unkown its not a good idea even if it does work. Anyway goodluck with the all nighter as you are probably procrastinating right now ;)
