No caffeine! HELP

Okay, I've got to go caffeine free for the next 48 hours. Any tips? I honestly don't think I have been caffeine free since I was a baby. So, no coffee, tea or chocolate. Anything else I need to avoid? Anything to help take the edge off?

That's what I'm thinking. The bad thing is I can't have any meds. I think I might be a little cranky. LOL

Just drink your rum straight up after a few you won't even miss the coke ;)
But seriously I have almost kicked the caffeine habit, I may have a caffeinated drink every few days now.
It was rough at first but you just have to tough it out.
The weird thing is believe it or not you may have trouble sleeping the 1st couple of nights.

Watch out for painkillers as some of them contain caffeine. And nothing I've found takes the edge off unless it has caffeine in it.

Tons of water and lots of exercise will give you some energy boost and help in some small way but mostly it will just suck :-(

Thanks Smokey, it's for a lab test. It's one that is not done frequently and the lab tech was confused as to what I needed to do. Mainly, had to go online to their website and figure it out. So frustrating.

Yes, I'm weak Hector. I need to pay someone to come be strong for me. LOL

Is it really going to be that bad. Ya'll have been freaking out. I'm old and fat, I don't exercise. LOL

Aw well the water will def help mitigate the withdrawals and give some energy even without the caffeine... But how bad depends on how much caffeine you are used to. I'm addicted to my coffee so I might be in trouble when having to abstain :p

Well, I didn't start it this morning. I'm enjoying my coffee as I speak. LOL

I just can't make myself do it.

An awful situation yuck!
I had to do that for 24 hours a few years ago. I don' t drink pop at all but its horrible having to go without my morning coffee two mornings in a row. I bought Odwalla carrot juice and had that instead. AB that might not be your style lol.
Get ahold of some sedatives and just stay in bed for two days? I know someone who did that for about a week to get through the initial stages of quitting smoking.
Edit, sorry you said no meds. I got nuthin then. :(
