caffeine withdrawal really bites. I'm trying to do better with my caffeine intake now that I'm on Lithium. I have just woke up from a sound sleep with the most painful migraine! Felt like my brain was pounding on my skull. So I took 2 Tylenol and a diet Pepsi "Pepsi is a registered trade mark"  Who could have figured doing something good could hurt so bad... I figured less caffeinated drinks = better sleep Instead I end up away at midnight with a slamming headache. Well now that I wrote all this the Pepsi seems to be kicking in and the headache is going away. a little under 15 minutes. Wow this stuff works fast.. Think I'll be up a while since I already slept 3 hours. Post edited by: RickEJ, at: 10/29/2010 09:10 PM peace & hugs
