I've noticed some of the adverse effects, too. I didn't notice any of it until I read a few stories of people who quit coffee and said they were less irritable, etc. It's hard because I also love coffee. I, like you, never had to "acquire" a taste for it- I just liked it. I've done stints where I'd mix half-decaf and half-regular. I should probably do that again.
