That seems a bit overwrought.... In my experience (and anecdotally from friends), the withdrawal symptoms are real, but not particularly severe.
For me it's just very mild (as in I barely notice) headaches and a vague under-the-weather feeling; to others I probably seem a bit grumpy. After a day or two of abstaining, the symptoms disappear.
Sure, it's vaguely annoying, but nothing more. When I travel or something and end up not drinking coffee for a while, it's simply not an issue.
- sudoherethere 11y agoFor me symptom were extremely severe over several weeks. In end, I could quit coffee for good. Recently, I had some stomach troubles and doctor told me to cutback or completely stop drinking coffee to help stomach heal. I decided to go cold turkey. Figured it would speed up recovery. A bad mistake. Headaches and irritation was easy to control and disappeared within couple of days. But my body is so dependent on caffeine. I had constipation, I could not motivate myself to go workout in evenings, I felt the world was moving at different pace than me. I just felt all sorts of wrong and I keep on thinking it was just a pace it pass soon. Finally, I could not take it. Went back to drinking as much coffee as I needand life is great now.
