Notification e-mail address??

I get this message when I try to change to a new e-mail address:

Your new Apple ID cannot be the same as your notification email address. Choose a different email address.

What does it mean??

The address you are trying to use is on your current Apple ID as a notification email address. To use that address as your Apple ID, you need to remove it from the current Apple ID. You will then have to wait about 30 days before you can use that email address as your Apple ID.

Log into your Apple ID to remove the address.
