Questions: I have always liked coffee very much and I especially tended to drink it frequently when I needed to concentrate and work. However, I have a deviated nasal septum, a condition in which the wall inside the nose is bent and causes nasal blockage, as well as allergic rhinitis and a small cerebral aneurysm. When I drink coffee, my stomach becomes upset and my rhinitis begins. When the rhinitis worsens, it leads to severe headaches.
Because of this, I have tried many times to quit coffee, but I have failed repeatedly. I think there may be a self in me that is influenced by the demon of addiction.

Well, yes, there is always a self that makes you vulnerable to the entities, the beasts that are behind any addiction. My question immediately would be, could you drink decaffeinated coffee without having the effect? Then you could have somewhat of the taste of coffee that you apparently enjoy and maybe avoid the health effects. If that is not realistic, then you simply need to decide: Do you want to quit coffee and avoid the health problems or do you want to live with these problems for the rest of your life? How important is coffee for you? And then, if you decide that you want to overcome this craving for coffee, you can use the tools and teachings we have given on how to expose the subconscious selves, expose the beliefs behind them, so you can overcome the addiction to coffee without really having to force yourself.
But in the end, of course, you also need to make a decision: Do you want to stop drinking coffee or do not you? I cannot make that decision for you. I have no intention of doing it either, even if I could.
