Coffee withdrawals

March 27th, 2007

Well I’m into my second day of no caffeine and it wasn’t until 11:00 this morning that the headache really kicked in. To a point where I had to stop what I was doing to wait on the wave of pain.

I had no idea caffeine could do this!

Over at Tisha’s she recently posted a discussion about drugs and of course caffeine isn’t on the list. The human body shouldn’t rely on a substance like this!

Did some very quick research to confirm that it is the caffeine and not something else and found this delightful little nugget:

This headache, well known among coffee drinkers, usually lasts from one to five days

This is on some website that appears to list coffee withdrawal symptoms. I’ve been sorely tempted in the past 24 hours to have some coffee just to get my head back. But fortunately I’ve been strong enough to resist. Then maybe I can get back to my normal life!

    No, don’t give up on coffee! Alright, all in moderation. 15 cups a day is nuts.
