Day 29 Caffeine

I've stopped drinking coffee in the past month/s as a discipline. I used to have withdrawals when I tried it long before. I probably know now how to control but to tame my tongue from additional calories and strength of coffee as I've been having panic attacks, I had to see.

The best way to see if you have CUD Caffeine Use Disorder)is to stop using caffeine and see if you have withdrawal symptoms. Many people won’t, but those who do should consider that it may be a viable problem. Or they can accept the fact that they have an addiction.

My office mate knew my case and whenever she drinks coffee, she would ask me if I wanted. I'm telling you, just the smell of it makes me want to take a sip or forget about the whole thing. But this is wholeness, I am trying to cut back on sugar and keeping my nervous system at pace. I was happy yesternight when I saw some progress on what I've been doing. I walked home smiling (slowly).

Because I lack caffeine, I feel sober most of the time. Also less the nervous attacks which is a good thing. Seldom gets night sleeping problems which is another good thing. Ahh but coffee! I miss you! I could cry. Hahaha. But okay fine, I'm taking coffee on Fridays or some other cheat days.

Random thought: Nothing I could say or do for now that could change things. Just give self grace, be composed. Bible says, composure allays great offense. Breathe.
