I'm with you. I quit caffeine for almost two months last year. About six weeks in, I admitted to myself that I was still feeling shitty and tired, and was having as much trouble focusing as on day one. Is this 'self-medicating'? Focus and tiredness have always been big problems for me. I scored in the 80th percentile on the Wender Utah Adult ADD test a few years ago. Nothing any doctor has plied me with has worked for more than a few days before tolerance sets in. IMHO, much of this 'quit caffeine - you'll feel even better without it' is uninformed zeal. Some will, some won't. Mileage will vary.
