Seriously. I joke about it all the time, but I really need to stop. I get sick when I drink it often, and I only drink it because I like the taste. And also I will say, "Oh I'll quit it's bad for me" then I pour myself another cup. What does that sound like? An alcoholic.

Many people can do coffee I guess it's just not me. I gotta do tea from now on.
 
Sadly I am extremely addicted to it I literally cannot go without drinking several cups a day like four or five and not small coffee cups I mean regular sized cups or bigger. The issue is the caffeine it's a drug a highly addictive one

Yeah it definitely is. One of my favorite lines was Tom Hanks in You've Got Mail where he called it selling "legal addictive stimulants"

Alcoholic, no. Cofoholic. Maybe. :) I'm guilty of this "substance abuse."
 
well, it's not an addiction, but I drink iced coffee in summer. Usually 2 cups, sometimes only 1. I drink hot coffee in winter and usually only 1 cup of that, unless it's a wickedly cold day.. :)
 
I drank a cup a couple days ago and for some reason I just felt icky. So I'm trying coco and that seems fine, maybe it's just hot liquids that my body enjoys. Maybe I can just fool it into liking something else, like hot apple cider or something less sugary.
 
Had it. Kicked it...maybe I didn't have it after all since I kicked it fairly easily, though I still crave it.

But yeah, coffee is the BOMB. It has some health benefits, even, but it can be bad for your nervous system and, as with many things, it's not good in excess.
 
My issue is I definitely use it to excess XDD I had some warm tea this morning and that seemed to do the trick, but I still want to have coffee D:
 
I think maybe cutting down slowly instead of cold turkey may be the best way for me. I tried cold turkey and I only lasted a day. But when I been having only one cup, and tea intermittently, I have been craving it much less.
 
I don't have a coffee addiction but I have an addiction to tea :D I'm half British so the tea drinking runs in my family :)
 
Caffeine in general is my addiction. I love chocolate, I love coffee, I drink a soda every now and then at work with my lunch... It would be amazing to see the whole world stop drinking coffee and more water. They say if you are gonna dream... Dream big right? ;)
 
Sure there's caffeine in coffee -and in most cola-type softdrinks - less in tea (but still some).
Heaps in the so-called 'energy' or 'sports' drinks.

No big deal - unless you're slurping pints of the stuff every day - or have pre-existing medical problems.
We can become fixated on such stuff.


Dr Pumicestone has spoken. :D
 
I would drink at least like a pot every couple of days, so not so good XD. I'm getting some tea for later, so making progress
 
I decided to make a big cup of coffee today. Big mistake. Yes I got perkier, but man the taste was so bad. After a while I couldn't drink anymore. Which is good! Progress! :D

Maybe all you need is one really big pot of aweful tasting coffee. Then you'll never want to look at another mug again.

I got this 5lb bag of saltwater taffy onetime (I had a slight addiction) I almost had the whole thing finished in an hour. Then I ate this nasty green one and got sick. Needless to say I can't even look at taffy anymore without feeling sick...... Actually don't really know where I was going with that story haha.
 
I Love my "Venti Skinny Mocha"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! from Starbucks, which I do have a limit of two a week, but on average I drink a cup or two of brewed coffee a day, but its just not as exciting as my Starbucks coffee:cool:
