I've been without caffeine for almost two years now. I too was a complete addict, I would drink a two liter bottle of Mountain Dew upon waking up. Since I have been without caffeine I have actually found it easier to stay awake, stay up longer working on problems and I don't have the same downs where I am craving caffeine or the shakes. I'm calmer, more collected and my colleagues have to deal with less "abuse" from me. So far being with caffeine has been a huge win for me personally.
