    How long ago did you pack the coffee in Cazi?

    It can take a few days to settle down.

    Isn't tea just as bad? What time's your last fix of the day?

    Oh and.........

    .....if you're on patches you need to take them off a couple of hours before bed time.

    Tea is nowhere near as bad.  True that a pound of tea has more caffeine than a pound of coffee but your average cuppa uses much less tea than coffee, hence mug of tea has much lower caffeine levels than mug of coffee..

    I stopped smoking (again) a couple of years ago and I didn't actually sleep for about a week. I was ready to kill someone.

    Fortunately had I killed someone, I would have had reasonable grounds for an excuse and probably be entitled to a government grant or something and a house and that.

    I started smoking again, so society has gained really.

    As a result, you all owe me something for my services to the community now.

    I find that.....

    ... a right good gut-wrenching-back-slapping-sphincter-puckering-bowel-busting-spine-jarring shag works wonders for me.

    S'onni reight therefore that I ent slept since March.

    Insomnia

    This withdrawal symptom rarely lasts longer than a week or so. It's another physiological symptom of your brain being without nicotine. You might also find that when you do sleep, you dream about smoking.

    Develop a new bedtime routine that doesn't include cigarettes. The routine will become a signal to your body that it's time to go to sleep. Do some deep breathing before you retire for the night, and try taking a hot bath and drinking some hot, non-caffeinated herbal tea or milk.

    Try counting backwards from 300.
    It always works a treat for me.

    Tea isn't as bad as coffee, love and I'm not on patches. I've been using the Niquitin mints although I've had about 4 of them all weekend.

    I'm just finding it extremely odd that I used to have my last cuppa coffee about 30 mins before bed and my last *** around 10 mins before bed and I slept like a chuffing log. I pack in the stimulants and can't chuffing sleep now. My mother allus said I was bloody awkward [​IMG]
