Well I made the dumbest mistake today by having a chai latte which I did not know had caffeine. It caused a horrible panic attack/adrenaline rush that I have not had for a while with heart palpitations even when I am also on propranolol- a beta blocker.
I was nervous of a seizure coming on, so lied down in the dark in my bedroom.
Please stay away from caffeine at all costs, also it reduces the effects of benzos so if your tapering it will interfere with your blood plasma levels.
I'm still trembling a little, quite shocked at how much of an effect caffeine can have on us recovering
But I've also not had any caffeine for months. I hope I am not in for a sleepless night again.

Success!
To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
