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.
