Day 3: my withdrawal headache is gone, but I think my adrenal system is correcting itself. I feel sluggish, but I'm not really craving caffeine. I think I'm just floating through the day without the usual chemical reactions brought on by high caffeine intake: adrenaline, adenosine, cortisol, etc....
I've gone through this before. By the weekend, there's a good chance I'll have a sleep marathon to move beyond this stage.
