I suffer from ADD (well ADHD, since they're both now considered one singular disorder and I've never been treated for it.) and I do believe that I have an addiction to caffeine. I can't seem to go a day without having some type of caffienated drink. What would be the best way to quit? I want my mind to be sharp when spring comes around since I'm going to start college.

treatment for ADD is a stimulant just like caffeine, so the answer to your question is NO!!

Caffeine should have a calming effect on you.
