I took coffee today and the day before since I haven’t slept well for the past 2 days. I don’t know, but no matter how comfortable I lay my body on the bed, I can’t seem to fall asleep. It’s not my pillow, it’s not my room. It’s not even the night that was because I’ve been like this for 2 consecutive nights. It’s like a little insomnia is getting along the way but it’s not that serious to be worried about.
And so I rushed for coffee to power me up while I’m working. Remember that I’ve been keeping myself away from coffee but I failed to do so. I feel I needed coffee more than ever.
I’ve been curious about the down side of coffee, if taken less or excessively, and I have found out that there are known and well-documented side effects, namely:
· Anxiety
· Insomnia
· Tremor
· Irregular heartbeat
· Digestive system, bladder and prostate irritation
Oh, that explains the palpitation and not to mention the “addiction” to caffeine. Hopefully I can get enough sleep these coming days so I can start avoiding coffee – for real.
