hi el123,

oh my gosh, i did the same thing and totally went through withdrawls too! i couldn't believe it! i ended up drinking decaffinated coffee for awhile and realized that it was totally okay.

i had massive headaches for about a week, but i kept drinking lots of water and it eventually went away. i hardly drink the decaffinated stuff now.

the first couple of days for me TOTALLY sucked, so i totally sympathize with you! just hang in there sweetie and you'll be fine.

i occassionally drink a diet rite for a "mock" caffine fix (caffeine free, sugar free--it's psychological). it tastes like diet coke to me, while others may disagree. i notice that my taste buds are extremely sensitive to sugar.

good luck!

Kimmy
