A lot of the recovery literature recommends that you stay away from caffeine, but I've never had a problem with it. I need my 2-3 cups of Peet's coffee every day.

Here are a few hints. I mix my beans with 1/2 caffeinated and 1/2 decaffeinated. If you want to stop drinking coffee, I've found that if you slowly decrease the caffeine over a week you do not have any withdrawal symptoms.

I continue to drink coffee since becoming sober with no ill effects. I'm sure some people respond differently though. Try the 1/2 and 1/2 method and see if it works for you.
