OG Moti Posted May 12, 2004 you want to give up tea .. u have to smoke ... or drink coffee or both and they are less harm than tea so u choose urself .. i gave my advice.. peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warrior of Light Posted May 12, 2004 Chubaka what you could do is reduce the quantity of tea cups you consume. Note how many cups keep u high per day . and slowly on a weekly basis reduce the amount can be 2-5 cups. And when u find ur morale is going down do a quick short exercise to get ur body naturally stimulated. and as the days go u can find urself having a healthy 2 cups daily.

Blessed Posted May 12, 2004 Why on Allah's good earth do you want to give up tea? I'm a tea addict by choice. But in strange circumstances where I fancy a change- I have mint tea instead. If you want to give up any habit, the key is to find an alternative you want to give up tea .. u have to smoke ... or drink coffee or both and they are less harm than tea so u choose urself Your kidding me right? The trouble with you OG-Moti is that I never know if your joking or your being real. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warmoog Posted May 12, 2004 Originally posted by Ameenah: I'm a tea addict by choice. Ditto! God knows my delight when I see my favourite can of cadys among the groceries. I'm smiling just thinking about it. chubaka, SisSade gave you sound advice; it's best to gradually ease yourself off the tea and any other caffeinated drinks you might be hooked on. I often use multiple tea bags in each pot so, if you do the same, you might also want to reduce the number. On the other hand, if you ever want to try quitting "cold turkey", then maybe you should try doing so on a weekend or some other time during which you'll have a few days to recoup from the headaches. I've also heard there are some decaffeinated tea brands out there, so you might want to check your local grocery store. Be warned though, rumour has it the stuff tastes rather awful because a lot of quality is lost in the decaffeinating process, but it may still work. Good luck!

Rahima Posted May 13, 2004 Why on Allah's good earth do you want to give up tea? Exactly what i was thinking. Apparently as told to me by a family friend who once caught be enjoying the delights of tea drinking, if i was in Gaalkacyo i would be the laughing stock of the town (as girls are not supposed to drink tea :rolleyes: ) I however, can proudly admit that i am a tea addict , at least it has lots of antioxidants (my way of deluding myself).
