three or four in the mornin I don't drink sodas When signs or symptoms of caffeine withdrawal occur, the severity can vary from mild to extreme. At its worst, caffeine withdrawal has been repeatedly documented to produce clinically significant distress or impairment in daily functioning and, on rare occasions, to be totally incapacitating. For example, in a double-blind caffeine-withdrawal evaluation, 73% of individuals who met criteria for DSM-IV substance dependence on caffeine reported functional impairment in normal activities during an experimental withdrawal phase. The table below gives some examples of the types of functional impairments experienced during caffeine withdrawal. The proportion of regular caffeine consumers who are at risk for experiencing such functional impairment during caffeine withdrawal is difficult to estimate. In one double-blind study with individuals from the general community, 52% of individuals from the general community with an average caffeine intake of 260 mg/day reported moderate to severe headache, and 8-11% showed abnormally high scores on standardized depression, anxiety and fatigue scales. In another double-blind study, 45% of individuals experienced a diffuse, throbbing headache, with almost a third also reporting nausea and sickness. -Johns Hopkins http://www.caffeinedependence.org/caffeine_dependence.html#withdrawal

ME addicted? no way ... 10 -12 cups by noon. Maybe another 2or 4 late afternoon. then another 4 around 8-10 pm. I was doing 4 full pots a day or more..... are my nerves shot? am I hyper? do I twitch every now and then? can I sleep? Hmmm nerves are fine. the twitching is from electrical shock therapy.... Hyper. only when you piss me off. ( like dealing with idiots on the phone) and I sleep like a baby.. well except last night ! something about being in a cannibals village about to become one of the meals unless I became one also. Couldn't wake fast enough: bigsmile:
