I've found that going cold-turkey is actually way easier than trying to ween yourself off of it. Reducing my intake only makes me want it more and more because I already have a little bit of it in my system. While going cold-turkey sucks for a 2-3 days, after you're off of it you have almost no urge what-so-ever to drink it.

Going cold turkey while increasing physical activity for a week or two is super effective at resetting my sleep patterns and daytime energy levels.
Thanks for relating that. I had just decided today that I'd quit, so it's perfect timing to start tomorrow.
