I have never been a coffee fan, but GOD I loved soft drinks. I was up to at least 2 2lts of Dr. Pepper/Cheerwine a day. I would often drink 2 cans of soda at breakfast just to wake up and drink them non-stop during the day. I never had trouble sleeping, but that could be the rum i was putting into my sodas after the sun went down.
I did this for years, til my stomach started telling me I was drinking to much soda. I started getting intense heartburn, that would drop my knees in pain. I realized that when I didn't drink soda, it helped. I quit cold turkey and I think I wasn't truly "awake" for about 2 weeks. I felt like a walking zombie. Since this was not a give-up-caffeine thing, I did drink a cup or two a coffee during that time when I just couldn't shake the sleep off. After about 2 weeks, my body got used to the lack of caffeine that it wasn't getting and I began to really feel awake. I've quit drinking/pot/cigs at various times in my life and I will say that quitting soda was the hardest thing I've ever quit.
Now, I drink a cup of coffee every morning or have a large glass of iced tea. I have iced tea if I sit down at a restaurant, but that's about all the caffeine I take in a day. Sometimes I get a wild hair up my ass and drink a Dr. Pepper/Sun-Drop/Cheerwine, but that is rare. If I don't leave my house on a weekend, I hardly drink caffeine at all. I could do without it, but I would rather not, seeing as it's not a big health/sleep issue with me.
