    Default Making sure i don't

    Drink the Green Tea in the evening ever again!!!!! I have not drank green tea for a along time, because it would make my anxiety worse. But since that is under control i started drinking it. Love the energy level it gives me and does help me not to crave carbs, But really when im wanting to go to sleep and my body is telling me NO ,it's not a good thing!

    Green honeybush is nice if you can find it. I can't drink anything caffeinated past early afternoon. I did have regular tea late last night, but that was because I had to be up all night.

    LOL! I had something similar recently, but different reasons.

    I get really vivid dreams when I drink green tea so was drinking a couple of cups in the evening not realizing it has caffeine in it. I am awfully responsive to stimulants so wasn't falling asleep!
