Message-ID: <717@psuvax.UUCP> Date: Fri, 24-Feb-84 17:21:38 EST Article-I.D.: psuvax.717 Posted: Fri Feb 24 17:21:38 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 26-Feb-84 05:03:56 EST References: <557@pucc-h> Organization: Pennsylvania State Univ. Lines: 19 The only way I know is cold turkey. My wife spent one entire summer getting herself unaddicted from caffeine. (She chose summer because she was a student and could not afford the withdrawal effects during the regular academic year.) But since she has become unhooked, she has felt and functioned MUCH better. Moral: sure it's tough, but you've got the REST of your life with which to appreciate the results. It's worth it. N.B.: Everything I said applies just as well to tobacco or any other addiction. -- Bob Giansiracusa (Dept of Computer Science, Penn State Univ, 814-865-9507) Arpa: bobgian%PSUVAX1.BITNET@Berkeley Bitnet: bobgian@PSUVAX1.BITNET CSnet: bobgian@penn-state.CSNET UUCP: bobgian@psuvax.UUCP -or- allegra!psuvax!bobgian USnail: 333 Whitmore Lab, Penn State Univ, University Park, PA 16802
