Shit, I’m addicted to Caffeine

Here I am, Mr. Green Tea, Mr. I don’t get addicted to anything, and what now? I just got up after laying in my bed, feeling the definite side effects of caffeine withdrawal.

Over the past 2 weeks I went on a coffee drinking binge, well, not really a binge. More like, one cup a day in the morning. I got some nice premium coffee, a french press and I went to town on drinking America’s favourite drug.

I only had a single cup a day, and it’s a very light blend. However, I am definitely feeling it. My head kind of hurts, I feel slightly more irritable (despite not having much social contact today, yay days off in the middle of the week!) and I’m just being downright lazy at this point

I did get a lot of things dnoe this morning, and I even went for a very long run (40 minutes, woo) but now that I am at the later part of the day, it’s hitting me.

Owell, time to slowly take it out of my system. It takes about 2 weeks of withdrawal before you are not addicted to it anymore, but I will phase it out slowly, a cup every 2 days, then 3, and so on as to not harm my body. Hoorah!
