[pct-l] RE: withdraw from caffeine

>I'm a section hiker, so I have to deal with the caffeine thing a couple
of times each summer. Instead of weaning myself slowly, I take Advil the
first night and following morning. That seems to do the trick...

If you are truly addicted to caffeine or used to drinking it every day,
I don't see how it's possible to wean yourself from it with two doses of
advil? Seems to me the caffeine would be in your system longer than that
and that you would feel the affects of it much longer than a day? Any
addiction specialists out there?
