I'm kicking coffee and have begun caffeine withdrawls. I don't know how much more difficult this is going to get, but I'm not happy right now. I hear caffeine addiction is intense, and I figured that if I stopped smoking, I can do this. I started to feel that the unhealthy combonation of coffee and sugar is weighing me down, wearing me out and making me feel like dog crap. I decided to drop them both. At the same time. Now I want a pack of Skittles, a cigarette and a cup of extra strong Dunkin. I may start shaking; that dose of death I just mentioned sounds surprisingly like heaven.
These withdrawl symptoms are only supposed to last 1 to 5 days. I'm tough, I've got this. I'll just be crappy and sleepy for a while. With a headache. Trembling. I don't want to stop coffee forever, I love my brew too much to cut it loose for good. Just long enough so that I know I'm not dependant and I'm not sucking down a pot a day for a nice little caffeine effect. I miss my Dunkin.
