arg.....headaches from lack of caffiene :(

[iamme]

lately, i've been getting headaches if i don't have coffee in the morning. 🙁

does anyone know how long those headaches will last, if i were to try to quit drinking so much coffee?

 

[NathanBWF]

Tried quiting my morning coffee for 3 months last year. I was pissed off all day everyday and the headaches never stopped. I'm back to my 2 cup per day ritual now and things are all good again.

Probably no longer than a few days or so.

Why on earth would you quit drinking coffee? How much are you drinking? Everything in moderation mah brutha.

 

[mrrman]

yeah I quit for a week to, went on a detoxification diet and I had the same thing for a couple of days then it was fine.

 

[daveshel]

I was getting that over the summer and it pissed me off, like it's up to me to decide when I have coffee, it isn't up to the freakin' coffee! I quit for a few months.

well, i have an espresso machine, so i have two shots in the morning. usually two in the evening and sometimes i'll stop by the coffee shop during the day 😕

it's just the mornings that i get headaches, if i don't have any coffee.

it goes away after a week

the first week off is the shttiest thing ever. you feel tired all the time and easily irratable. after that though things are okay

 

[Zeeky Boogy Doog]

quit caffiene, do crack instead

That's a lot of friggin coffee.

 

[Pepsi90919]

sure, if headaches are your thing

 

[mrrman]

its just an addiction to caffeine, your body craves it when you dont get it. I have an expresso machine to and typically have 3-4 cups a day...I am having one right now..lol

I'm having that withdraw right now. My gf and I love coffee so we always go coffee shops. My gf left town this week, and i'm too lazy to go to coffee shop. I've been yawning for 2 days straight. I got 10 hours of sleep too. 🙁

Two shots as in two doubles, or just one double? You're likely pushing close to 1000mg a day depending on roast, bean, etc.

I drink 2 or 3 doubles a day, but no more.

Actually, it's likely only about 4oz total volume 😀

one double in the morning and a double in the evening.

at the coffee shop, i was usually getting triple machiattos (3 shots, with some milk foam).

with finals last week, i was drinking even more to stay alert.

Bah, that's not bad at all then 😀 The afternoon triple likely pushes you over a threshold of abuse, but if it's only occasional...

yeah that's about what I remember. I hardly ever have headaches, and waking up every morning with one just pissed me off and set the tone for the day :thumbsdown:

but it ends eventually

3 days at most.

I used to get caffine withdrawal on Sundays as I don't drink coffee outside of work. Usually lasts 24 hours once they start, and aspirin or any other pain releiver simply DO NOT WORK

 

[TheLonelyPhoenix]

I got those for awhile. They wear off if you take a week's vacation from caffine... or at least, they did for me.

 

[gistech1978]

you have to ween yourself off of caffeine.

i get the same thing except in the afternoons.

 

[randalee]

Yeah I think you should quit... It's hard, but worth it. People can exist without caffeine.

 

[TwiceOver]

It's definately tough. I get headaches also from lack of caffeine.

 

[everman]

Why not try some good coffee, roasting your own is pretty easy and can be done with minimal investment. 99% of coffee shops that I've been to can't even come close. Of course I use an espresso machine (sylvia), press pot, and moka pot for a nice variety.

 

[rh71]

caffeine is great for curing mild headaches... never thought about it the other way around.

Excedrin will take care of that headache. Of course, it contains caffeine 😛.
