end of abstinence Monday, March 5 2018
[REDACTED]
This evening after work I just wanted to lie in bed with a good book (it was okay if it was on a phone) and read in the coziness beneath the covers. So I ate 100 milligrams of diphenhydramine and proceeded to read Nassim Nicholas Taleb until my eyelids were to heavy to proceed. I then burrowed beneath the pillows, imagining I would fall immediately to sleep. For some reason, though, I lay awake for at least five minutes afterwards. At the time, it was only a little after 9:00pm. This meant that, despite the high dose of diphenhydramine, it would be relatively easy getting out of the bed tomorrow morning.
I should mention that I am once more fully off-the-wagon with respect to caffeine abstinence. I drank black tea all day today, and I'd had a little the day before as well. Still, I'd done pretty well, maintaining a pattern of overall caffeine abstinence from December 20 until the second of March.
