OK. I've set up this site to blog about my pending shot down the toilet of caffeine withdrawal. Yes, I said caffeine withdrawal.
Now, I know what you are thinking. 'Caffeine is your friend' and 'Why the hell would you want to give it up'. Well it's simple. My name is Mike Young and I am an addict.
I am no longer consuming caffeine for that extra boost, that buzz. I am no longer ingesting it to get an edge. No. I am now to the point where to just normalize myself I need my caffeine. Yeah, you heard me right. I wake in the morning feeling like crap. I have my coffee, I feel 'normal'. Then around midday I need another 'hit' to continue to feel normal. I am honestly tired of this. Really really tired.
So I've decided to set up this blog and go through this painful process for your education/amusement. I should be blogging several times a day, as well as possibly doing video blogs.
The date that I'm going to start my slow decent to hell has not been chosen as of yet. I can tell you that it will be in either April or May of 2012 (so in the next 2 months).
Please feel free to comment on this. It should be interesting.
Why wait!? Start with these last few weekends allowing yourself coffee throughout the week and then BOOM! May 1st you're done my friend!
ReplyDeleteI'll even come over and clean you out of your coffee stash. No putting it in a ziploc and hiding it in the toilet tank either, I will check there!!!!
Yeah the slow withdrawal to quitting caffeine does not work well for me as it just prolongs my agony. I'm very much an all or nothing person so .. tis the cold turkey for me!
