Coffee Highs and Crashes

I've recently discovered the delicious-ness of coffee, and have been drinking them somewhat regularly. I have be fine the last 50 times I drank coffee (except for being a little jittery.), but have now learned what it is like to Overdose on coffee.

I decided to drink a large cup of coffee (I was tired, and decided coffee would help.), and felt a little nauseous afterwards. How can something so wonderful make you feel so horrible?

I immediately felt jittery and extremely bouncy moments after I drank my fill. I was happy until the coffee wore off. The yucky feelings started right after my happy high. The terrible headache with the upset tummy. I felt like crap. Do you know that feeling when you've watched too many movies and sat too long? That terrible feeling that won't just leave you. It feels terrible, and I felt it for the rest of day.

I even had to pay the price of not being able to sleep. Life was being cruel, and I was getting desperate.

I learned my lesson. Never take coffee lightly, and never drink more than you can handle. It was a terrible lesson to learn.

But in reality, I really don't think it's going to stop me from drinking more coffee. I may be traumatized at the moment, but I'm going to crave the delicious taste of an iced coffee in a few days. I just know it.

How I torture myself...
