Enjoying A Caffeine Free Lifestyle

By Della Monroe


Hearing about those that do drugs brings about shame to even the listener. Some become prideful when they state they have never used drugs in their lifetime. However, there is a particular drug that often is found in common foods that bring about enjoyment and satisfaction. The effects that this stimulant has on many, encourages individuals to want to live caffeine free.

Calling caffeine a drug is taking it a little too far for some. After all, it does offer some benefits for the body if taken and used in moderation. However, because it is addictive, some individuals have stated it's not so good. Others are choosing to go on living their lives without this stimulant, but are soon finding it's better said than done.

The decision of course remains left to the individual. Many rely on facts to make the right decision. So, if an individual finds themselves battling anxiety, fatigue, and find themselves slurping down caffeine throughout the day, they may need to step back and evaluate if caffeine is the culprit.

Stopping caffeine intake may be a decision that not everyone can handle. Many have said that they can't live their lives to the fullest without it. Red flags often to go up with statements like this. Here is a clue. The real question at hand is if the stimulant was no longer available, could most individuals function to their fullest. Needless to say, the response for most would be no.

It scares some of the population to rely so heavily on a substance. However, going completely without this fix, is not for those that are faint of heart. This decision is for the long hall, and an individual may find that all that they try to do over the next few months may seem even more difficult. However, those that stick with it show no regrets.

There are some benefits to giving up this secret drug. Many have felt that they showed an enormous increase in their energy levels. They also said that they didn't feel as much stress or anxiety. When they woke up in the morning, they felt so refreshed and felt like they could take whatever the day had to bring. There was also a decrease in the amount of money that was spent from day to day.

There is, however, a dark side. It's called caffeine withdrawal. It's not a fantasy but it's very much a reality. Symptoms vary among individuals, but some common ones are depression, fatigue, headaches, insomnia, or muscle pain. Feelings of irritability and exhibiting flu-like symptoms are also very common. Some have shared that they felt they couldn't focus or concentrate as well.

Again, making the decision to live a life free from caffeine is not for everybody. But, it can be done. If the person is motivated enough and tired of the negative effects that they feel from day to day, it's possible. Even though there may not be a quick fix, the journey is well worth it for some.
