I had to quit caffine and sugar . I just did it cold turkey. It was a big mistake to do it that way because I had terrible headaches for a month. However, now I am completly off of both and feel great.
Wow... never heard the sugar and caffine thing before. I guess I should give it a try... maybe it will help me too!
Anxiety Sufferer, if you cut back on the sugar and caffine, it will reduce your anxiety to a large degree. If you do try to quit all caffine, do it slowly. Caffine is a drug and you will have terrible headaches if you stop your intake of caffine suddenly.
Good luck and I know you can overcome your anxiety.
