Do you mean you quit suddenly just now and are feeling withdrawal effects? Or you quit earlier? Why did you quit?

I've decided to quit by drinking a little less each day. I've also been cooking up ideas to boost energy sans caffeine. I can't just go from lying in bed all night to sitting in front of the computer and expect to feel wide awake. I'm currently thinking:

Small cup of OJ + supplements + small cup of water
3 min meditation. Relax all muscles
1 - 3 appropriate stretches
N min cardio
Take in sunlight (stand in front of a window)

...to be used as needed. Looks like 10 - 15 mins to me.

There are also some books dedicated to ideas about boosting energy that I may check out.

We'll see how it goes. I just started reducing the coffee a few days a go, so I'm still enjoying it for the most part.
