I went from one caffeine drink a day (albeit soft drink) to zero, and it still wrecked me for a week. Dunno if that's because soft drink has more caffeine than coffee?

Okay. I've never heard of somebody only drinking one caffeine drink a day. I feel like if that's all you're drinking it's such a low amount of caffeine you probably don't even need to quit.

Most people drink a lot of caffeine a day, and for some, every single drink they have has some caffeine in it. Those are the people that might need to cut back or quit or cut down to one caffeinated drink per day, which would be a good goal too.

I drink the same cup of coffee everyday, and I deliberately limited myself to one cup when I started drinking coffee.

Because I was getting caffeine from softdrink, a soft drink a day was not healthy in of itself. So that's why I quit caffeine.i can't stand the taste of coffee.

Other than the 5 days in bed, I'm pretty happy now, so was worth it.
