Caffeine – My Symptoms Writer #1, 2011-06-30 To document my reasons for going caffeine free I will list my symptoms: Tired Lack of ambition Difficulty concentrating Poor memory Light headed when going from squatting to standing Blush easily even when something is barely embarrassing Sleep is not restful – waking up tired Difficulty returning to sleep if awoken during night Slow healing skin Not easily excited Only a few days into my caffeine free diet, I can already I can sleep deeper and longer and return to sleep if awoken during the night. I don’t feel like I’m blushing from small things. I don’t feel light headed. My skin has little nicks that seem to have finally healed, although this began when I upped my vitamin intake a week ago, my skin does now look clearer.
