Will Spray on Caffeine replace Coffee?

              Coffee lovers, is it becoming too much of an effort to rise up out of bed and drag yourself to the nearest coffee shop every morning? The headaches did make me think there was something to be said for caffeine addiction" and withdrawal, said the 41 year old Cumberland, Maine, resident. She started tapering off her caffeine consumption by mixing decaffeinated and regular coffee. She finally kicked the habit for good after getting pregnant in December.

              Caffeine, the most begin seeming drug of choice that keeps so many of us fueled through the day, is now the basis of two official diagnoses in the mental-health bible released in May, with a third brewing for consideration. The latest version of the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, commonly referred to as DSM-5, includes both caffeine intoxication and withdrawal. These conditions are considered mental disorders when they impair a person's ability to function in daily life. Caffeine intoxication was included as a diagnosis in the previous version of the manual, known as DSM-IV. But caffeine withdrawal was upgraded in the current manual to a diagnosis from a "research diagnosis" previously, meaning it required further study for inclusion. Caffeine use disorder, when a person suffers troubling side effects and isn't able to quit was added to the current manual as a research diagnosis.

               Caffeine intoxication and withdrawal both occur fairly frequently but only rarely cause enough clinically significant impairment to be considered a mental disorder, Said Allen Frances, who chaired the task force that developed the previous version of the DSM and has been a vocal critic of the latest version.
Although caffeine is addictive, many studies have found the drug is associated with some health benefits. Some experts are still saying that certain individuals should avoid caffeinated products, such as those with anxiety, high blood pressure, insomnia and diabetes. People experience adverse effects from caffeine, such as the jitters typically associated with caffeine intoxication, may want to consider at least scaling back their consumption. We shouldn't medicalize every aspect of life and turn everyone into a patient. Caffeine withdrawal symptoms usually kick in about 12 hours after consumption, peaking at 24 hours, Dr.Lane said. For most people all symptoms should disappear in about a week. This may be preferable to spending several weeks slowly cutting back, only to find that the final step of quitting still leads to withdrawal. If I wasn't a coffee fan, I'd definitely test it out myself.
