CAFFEINE, CIGARETTES AND INSOMNIA IN WITHDRAWAL

Caffeine in Withdrawal

Most people cut down on coffee, tea and coke because they realize their withdrawal symptoms are much worse after taking them.

Cigarettes in Withdrawal

Some people stop smoking completely because of the metallic taste in the mouth. Others smoke compulsively. You will feel better if you try to cut them down.

Dinner: Supper: same as lunch plus fruit, crispbread with cheese, meat paste, cottage cheese, etc. Milk drink or weak tea.

Insomnia

The rebound insomnia experienced in withdrawal can be severe. Your normal sleeping pattern may not return for weeks or months. Try to accept this. It will come back in time.

Even people who are well and not on drugs can have disturbing symptoms, e.g. depersonalization (not being in touch with themselves), and de-realization (not being in touch with reality), when they are deprived of sleep.
