Addiction

[priceyfatprude]

I've been trying to give up coffee for the last 3-4 years. Actively for the last year and a half. By actively, I mean making green tea that I pay for rather than guzzling down free coffee here @ work.

I like green tea. But it's not coffee. I miss coffee, and fall off the wagon at least once a month, somtimes once a week. My one doctor says I should not have the coffee, ever. My other doctor says one cup a day is ok. I laugh in his general direction, b/c I cannot stop at one cup, unless it's just to get me through the afternoon around 2:30-3pm. Guh.

So my questions to you ZeMonkeys are:

Have you ever been addicted to something?
What were/are you addicted to?
Were you able to quit?
If yes, HOW?!?!?!?
If no, do you worry about the effects that not quitting will have on you?

I worry about it, but not to the point that I'm not enjoying every sip of my venti skim mocha. I look forward to hearing your answers/stories.
