Caffeine Withdrawal Recognized As Real

Posted by timothy on from the after-adhd-I-lost-respect dept.

Ben Sullivan writes "What many Slashdotters have long known looks set to become official: Caffeine withdrawal is for real. New research at Johns Hopkins should result in it being included in the next edition of the DSM, and recognized by the World Health Organization."

    Why would I want to reduce caffeine!?

    Caffeine and endorphines are the only drugs I trust.

    Work on stopping your serious problems instead, like sugar intake.

    What I do is limit my intake to every other hour during the day. Any more just make me jumpy.

    Note to Moderators: Do not mod Funny. I've seldom been more serious. No jokes about propaganda from Brazil either; I'm Swedish.
