Hmm, sorta similar for me except my normal is only one cup per day. Every now and than (say every few months), I get up to two, then soon three cups per day and I start getting migraine. Then I think to myslf, "boy, I gotta quit coffee forever", and so I do. Then I get headaches from withdrawal, but that only lasts a few days. Typically, I stay off coffee forever for about two or three weeks, and the cycle repeats. So... if you want to cut back, just persevere for a few days of no coffee. The statistics don't lie.* * sample size = 1
