Today was my first day back at my teaching job, and sitting thru long boring meetings all day. I found myself yawning and trying to stay focused, but I still refrained from going for that cup of coffee. Even going to lunch with the other teachers, I ordered a non-caffeine drink instead of my usual diet cola. After going thru the headaches and getting this out of my system, I'm determined to continue. In the past, in teacher meetings, when I was revved on caffeine, I would blurt out responses that got lots of laughs, after which I would wonder, "Why did I say that!??? I'm much calmer now and don't have to worry about such behavior!
Also, I'm hyperactive, and coffee makes me pace when I'm home alone. Things are much better now!
Love and good thoughts to all of you getting away from caffeine.
