Hi,
I have gone through your query & understood your problem.
Coffee is a stimulant to central nervous system. One needs to drink 3 full mugs (300ml) of coffee for a long time to get addicted.
It's a good sign that you have accepted the fact that you need to drop coffee.
- You must stick to the thought & repeat it daily to your self.Also think of the benefits from quitting coffee, ( Self positive talk)
- try to avoid temptation points in a day-by engaging your self in some task you love to do.
- Try chewing sugar free chewing gum,clove to divert your atainsion.
- Substitute coffee with fresh fruits/salads.drink plenty of water.
* Remember,it's going to take a long time to quit it completely. The more determined /persistent you are.earlier will be the result.
* In case you find it impossible,consult a psychiatrist.
Thanks
