Caffeine??
I Just read someone say that too much caffeine can be a trigger for craving alcohol. I'm not sure about that but what I am sure of is that I love coffee but I stay away from it cuz it gets me ansy. I mean I go years and years without drinking it, or if I do drink it, it could be perhaps 3 cups a YEAR, if even.
Well, last week I bought a big tub of Folgers for when my Ma comes over - talk about a coffee addict - and it's been so cold that I've been drinking coffee pretty much all day long the last few days. Strange enough, too much makes me tired I've noticed. Well, being as I live alone if I get anxiety from caffeine I don't worry about it too much. It's like at work or in social settings I don't drink coffee - if I'm going to drink coffee at all.
So now I'm thinking, I wonder if that whole pot of coffee a day is what set me off the other day into high anxiety and also made me sick to my stomach. I was literally sick to my stomach.
How stupid of me. I could almost laugh not putting the two and two together.
Well, instead of being in high anxiety over not having a job I am going into high ACTION tomorrow into getting one. I have four places planned on for cold-calling. One I know for sure is hiring and it's really not my gig, but ya never know how those things turn out until you try it. Factory work at a knitting mill. Gawd I can't believe at my age I am saying this. When you live in the boonies you don't have too many choices and I'm in no position to pick and choose so I feel good about this. From $22 an hour to $9 and hour ( if I'm lucky). O boy o boy o boy o boy.
I'm feeling good about taking action instead of smothering myself in anxiety.
I need to remind myself sometimes how grateful I am to God for my many, many blessings.
