Ok, so I feel the need to update my profile because I am no longer “slurping down mad amounts of caffeinated beverages.”
My last drip of caffeine was on Monday this week, since Tuesday July 25, 2006 I’ve been caffeine free.
It’s only Thursday, I think I am going to make it out of this, but could use some prayer.
Addiction is a painful thing to break, it hurts physically and I just don’t feel like myself.
More tired, more quiet, more lethargic.
I’ve been addicted to caffeine on and off since my Freshman year of high school.
I used to love the effects of the stimulant.
I loved that it helped make me less hungry (at the time I was struggling with an eating disorder), it also made me more happy and got me attention.
It’s definitely not something I need anymore but it’s something that my body got used to functioning with.
Now I’m fighting the temptation to fill the hole that the caffeine has left with other things.
Jesus wants to fill me completely, but here I am looking to everything else.
I don’t want to do that anymore, I want to be filled by Jesus, but I have to admit that it’s a struggle!
