I drank my last drop of coffee three and half years ago, because I was noticing those same symptoms on days I didn't get my "dose", which got me worried. So I've endured the headache and irritation for about 2-3 days, then it was over.
Interestingly I never craved coffee after, nor did I replace it with tea or something, it must have something to do with that I mostly drank coffee when hanging out with people. Now I order a vitamin powder drink with cold water that's sold in my country. In the mornings, I enjoy cold water or cold milk for refreshment and focus.

A lot of studies actually show that it is quite good for various aspects of ones long term health. There are only some negative short term effects, like raised heart rate or mild withdrawals. So there's no reason to be worried about drinking coffee, unless those short term effects bother you.
