Any tips for giving up caffeine

[emily05]

considering giving up caffeine. I drink ALOT of tea. Has anybody got any tips? How long will the side effects last?

thanks

I would try to wean yourself off gradually otherwise you might get headaches - how many cups do you drink a day?

I just did it, felt crap for a few days and that was it, haven't touched it in over a year. Drink decaf coffee now, but can't stand decaf tea. On the odd occassion I have been made a cup of caffeine coffee (when out) and haven't realised, you certainly notice it then - good luck!
