Thanks for posting; I've also been withdrawing from coffee, primarily because my tolerance has increased to the point where I no longer feel I'm getting significant beneficial effects from it. This article has me thinking about what the negative effects I may not have noticed are, and if I should extend my "tolerance-reset" period into something more permanent.

FWIW: I use caffeine to help cope with allergies and as an albuterol substitute because I am allergic to albuterol. I have noticed that some folks who consume a lot of coffee make remarks that sound a lot like they are self-medicating for some issue without consciously realizing it. This might be why the author of the blog keeps coming up with some excuse to go back on coffee. I find that addressing underlying health issues has cut my consumption of caffeine without me having to do anything to intentionally try to curtail caffeine specifically.
