Weed vs Caffeine addiction?

The only time I ever gave up caffiene was in jail, when I had no choice. Wanted a cigarette so bad both weed and coffee were way down the list.

I'm not a weak minded person either. I smoked a pack of cigs a day for more than 15 years but managed to quit them 6 years ago. I also stopped smoking weed for about 5 years after many years of daily use. But the coffee, as much as I've tried I can't give it up.

just keep in mind that caffein blocks calcium absorbtion. also, coffee in excess can cause that disease (forget the name) where your bones get really brittle and put you in a crap load of pain. it's not osteoperosis I know.
I'd recommend just having your regular amount of coffee, but count how many cups you have in one day. then, quit by cutting out 1 cup every day.
