Cut off from caffeine or limited to considerably less than they’re accustomed to, caffeine junkies complain of headaches, depression, difficulty concentrating and fatigue.

Some people run their bodies on caffeine and not on their basic life force and the natural energy of their hormones, such as adrenal and thyroid. Caffeine, although it is not seriously addicting, is very habit forming. It is not particularly good for athletes or anyone seriously interested in their health. Although it may improve muscular work and short-term performance in both physical and mental athletes, it creates depletion by its diuretic nutrients, and foods can help balance this.

Do not consume any caffeine, alcohol, or sugar. Eating sugar in any form—including fructose and honey—promotes fatigue, increases pain, and disturbs sleep. If these substances have been a regular part of your diet, your symptoms may actually get worse for a short period as a result of the "withdrawal" effect, but after that, you should experience a noticeable improvement in your condition.
Prescription For Nutritional Healing by Phyllis A Balch CNC and James F Balch MD, page 377
Fatigue is a common symptom when you’re quitting caffeine. One way to beat it is to "thoroughly rub your ears and earlobes for a couple of minutes when you wake up in the morning," says Dierauf.
Alternative Cures by Bill Gottlieb, page 138
Headache isn’t the only side effect you may experience from quitting caffeine. It’s just the most obvious. Your body, which has become accustomed to drug-induced stimulation, needs to recover its natural abundant energy supply. After all, most people consume caffeine to boost their energy levels, so restoring natural energy production once you’re off the bean is critical. If you find yourself unable to muster the oomph to face the day, or crippled by "brain fog" that won’t clear, you’ll get discouraged quickly. Any program for quitting caffeine must provide a variety of successful methods to deal with fatigue so you don’t go running back to caffeine.

Be aware that abrupt cessation of coffee drinking will probably result in symptoms of caffeine withdrawal, including fatigue, headache, and an intense desire for coffee. Fortunately, this withdrawal period doesn’t last more than a few days.
