Coffee

Caffeine Free
It feels good to be free of coffee. My moods are again entirely my own. I have quit twice. Most recently last year. I remember with fondness that my family was customers of the month at Starbucks in San Miguel de Allende. My wife says I am a much nicer person without coffee. My patience is longer, my mood better.

Coffee Withdrawal
The symptoms of coffee withdrawal last one to two weeks. Suffering includes headaches, fatigue and anger.


Sleep
I may have been able to burn the candle at both ends while running on stimulant. With the stimulant removed any tiredness shows up. Now I can really feel when I get a good night sleep, and when I don’t. I have much more energy and patience with a good night sleep. I try to go to sleep at evening with the kids, and get a full night sleep, waking with morning, or just before morning. The stimulant of coffee permits function without adequate sleep. Lack of rest is exposed as tiredness before a cup in the morning or another in the afternoon.

Substitute
Ginger tea is my morning coffee replacement. I still enjoy a cup of warm beverage with my wife in the morning.
