Getting De-caffeinated!

I hope you have had a nice, relaxing Christmas break, and are ready to start the New Year!

I recently read about Mind's 10 Day challenge and decided to stay off caffeine for a year! Caffeine is well-known for increasing feelings of stress and anxiety and worsen conditions for people suffering from mental illness.

In fact, one of the main advice from Mind is to avoid caffeine (in addition to alcohol and other substances) to speed up recovery.

I will avoid tea and coffee (with caffeine), energy drinks and painkillers containing caffeine, basically anything containing, you guessed it, caffeine! I would really appreciate if you could support Mind by donating here.

Thanks for all your support!

All the best,

Hermine
