I drink way too much caffiene. I actually get a nasty headache if I try not to consume so much. \nAny other caffiene addicts?

I'm addicted too. You can try to slowly cut back on your intake. Maybe that will help. That's what I've been trying to do but I tend to revert back to drinking it all day long.

Try cutting out caffiene for a few days and see if it helps.

Yep I get a massive migraine after drinking alcohol.  I think it shuts something in my system down.  It's just not good to everyone.

coffee is a stimulant and is in the same category as nicotine, which is also a stimulant.  I love lattes and i drink one to two big strabucks cups a day.  you can become addicted to coffee just like you can become addicted to nicotine, in other words you can develope tolerance.. which means that you need increasingly more cafeine in order to achieve a level of arousal previously achieved wiht a smller amount of nicotine....if you are at this stage adn you stop drinking coffee, you may experience withdrawal symptoms...they would be a little milder than those of nicotine

Don't let it get to you honey!  Remember, it's nothing but a bunch of 1's and 0's!! ;)\n\nAlso, in cases when I've run out of coffee and needed that all important jolt of caffeine:  munch on chocolate-covered espresso beans then follow with a tracer of Jolt soda.  \n\nActually while you're the market, can you pick up some tofu for me? I ran out. :)))))\n\nKeep smiling! :)

My first guess is that you are addicted to caffeine in Soda or some energy drink.  Kick the soda habit and you will sleep like a baby.  Caffeine is very addictive and hard to quit if you are drinking six sodas a day or more (or one or two big gulp drinks).  Quit caffeine, it will change your life.  \n\nI like to use the supplement, Melatonin to help me sleep.  I use it almost every night.  Take 1MG chewable (I like GNC's product) an hour before bed time.  Read a book...and you will pass out in no time.\n\nAre you consumed with stress and negative anxious thoughts at night?  I strongly suggest you discuss this with your parents and ask them to see a doctor.  Maybe you need a little help sleeping for a while.  But don't let them dope you up all day long on an anti-depressant.\n\nStart with quiting caffeine and ask Mom to buy you GNC's sub-lingual melatonin (in the vitamin section).

Another reason could be you have simply had too much caffeine and/or not enough sleep.  If I drink too much coffee and eat chocolate, my eye twitches.

Exercise, run, yoga, meditation, get a punching bag to punch.  \nIf you drink coffee, tea or cola--best to switch to the decaffeinated kind (gradually, so you don't get caffeine withdrawal).  \nEat less sugar, and note that chocolate has both caffeine and sugar.\nYou really might want to phone the doctor about this--you may, or may not, need some medication.

Yeah, me too, I started useing it awhile back, a couple of years ago actually. But before I knew it I was taking them faithfully, couldnt even think of bed without popping one first, then I realized I was becoming addicted, didnt know if it  was physical addiction or psychological but definetly a problem.  Now I use exercise and warm milk

i just had to get over being so tired after my doctor said that i had to quit cuz of my heart i have Long QT Syndrome (the time in between your heart beats) and i have a heart arrhythmia problem (when your heart has an irregular beat) so Doc said no more caffeine and there was nothing that i could do other than just ride it out cuz i had to quit so that's all the advice that i can give you.....although you might try this site you might find something hopefully it helps you   \n \nwww.medterms.com

I quit drinking caffiene drinks about 10 years ago and if i remember right it took about a week and a half to get the headaches to go away.

Caffeine is a drug! Try to balance it out by drinking just as much water through out the day.

You work at Starbucks? Have you been drinking coffee lately? Caffiene supresses the appetite. I know that when I drink coffee, I can't eat for a few hours and if I do I feel sick. Avoid caffiene for a few days and see what happens. Also, if you are stressed about other issues or are feeling insecure in your seemingly rocky relationship and it's making you lose your appetite, try planning your meals and eating healthy snacks throughout the day. Your appetite should return. If it doesn't see a doctor. \n\nLoss of appetite can be a cause of physical as well as mental issues. It doesn't mean you have an eating disorder such as anorexia or bulimia. Anorexia and Bulimia are psychological disorders that manifest in problems eating. Typically people who have these disorders see themselves in a very negative light ie. feelings of worthlessness, thinking "I'm such a fat ass" ect. There is also an unhealthy obsession with food. If you don't feel as if food is your enemy, it's unlikely that you are developing one of these problems. Again, if you cut back on the caffiene and try eating light snacks and meals  and your appetite does not return, see a doctor.

I used to drink a large number of diet sodas containing aspartame daily. I noticed that I was getting pounding headaches and would just take medicine to help.... I also heard about the other negative side effects of aspartame consumption and decided to switch to drinking water and drinks w/ splenda only. I haven't had a headache in months and feel much better overall. Also, I don't get the craving to eat carbs, sweets, etc. anymore.\n\nI would recommend not drinking liquids containing aspartame just to be on the safe side.

I get headaches all the time. I try not to take my prescription drug if i can avoid it. I don't know how old you are so I don't want to promote drinking coffee but what I do is drink a small cup of regular coffee with cream and a couple sugars eat a small meal and take three ibuprofen. Slow deep breathing exercises help too. It helps relax your neck muscles, face and jaw. The caffeine in the coffee helps the blood vessels in your head open up if they are constricted. It works for me because i don't drink anything with caffeine in it. But if you do drink a lot of caffeine it can cause a headache. If you can keep a headache diary it can help you to distinguish from what types you are getting and what kinds of treatments can help. If i have a headache on the right side of my head I know it isn't a migraine. Sometimes ice works sometimes a heat pack on the back of my neck works. If i sleep too little, or skip a meal i will get a headache. Once you start to monitor you headaches you can possibly avoid getting them all together and when you do get one you will eventually know which treatment work for each one. Try some of the things i do and see if they help.

Chocolate contains many, many chemicals and components.  The one that seems to give most people trouble is caffiene.  Do you have this same reaction when you drink soda or coffee?
