For caffeine, it’s hard to say, but probably at least a liter a day of Coca Cola or similar. For cigarettes, peak usage of half a pack a day. Quit both cold turkey (many years apart). Quitting soda gave me pretty significant headaches for about a week. Quitting cigarettes had no noticeable side effects other than cravings and some antsiness every hour or so. Note also that I have since relapsed on both, but was cold turkey for at least 6 months.
- newen 8y agoQuitting coca cola is different from quitting caffeine though. You are quitting sugar along with caffeine.
- baddox 8y agoI definitely didn’t quit sugar, although probably reduced it significantly. I was still drinking juice pretty regularly. I’m pretty sure the headaches were primarily from caffeine withdrawal.
