why no working out? really? 3 days? gah


that said, I've never had a problem before, and I used to mainline that shit...

oh it was just an idea. caffeine tends to make me jittery. i know you used to mainline that shit but that was probably what kept you going in a depressing situation.

caffeine withdrawal can mimic depression though. same symptoms. i think a lot of people self-medicate depression with caffeine.

anyway, why not working out, you ask-- if you do a WATER fast, it's a shock to your system and you'll feel restless and you don't wanna strain your immune system by breaking down protein and then not replenishing it.

i'm not saying do that-- i'm saying if you do, you need to do it while resting.

suchfriends will probably vouch for the effectiveness of fasts to clarify the brain-- it's not for everyone however, you need to plan and execute it correctly or you can hurt yourself.
