| Re: Has anyone had to stop caffeine intake due to OCD?
not confusing at all. i had to give up caffeine (and alcohol) it made me way too anxious to the point where i've had near panic attacks here and there. definitely increased my obsessive thoughts. i've battled ocd, depression and anxiety since I was a late teen. i've been on and off meds and have a had a few major episodes. my last one was last year around this time. I had been off meds for 5 years. however i was drinking a lot and not taking care of myself as well as I should have. so now i've given up caffeine, alcohol and cigarettes. if you are looking for coffee alternatives there's a few brands that make carob coffee. for coca cola alternatives you can grab some sarsparilla root drinks. these both can be found at stores like earthfare, whole foods, wild oats, etc.
