Ndayeka i-Caffeine kwaye ekugqibeleni ndaba ngumntu wasekuseni
Umxholo
Ndafumanisa umlingo we-caffeine xa ndafumana umsebenzi wam wokuqala wokulinda kwi-15 kwaye ndaqala ukusebenza ngokuphindwe kabini. Khange sifumane kutya simahla kwivenkile yokutyela, kodwa iziselo bezinokuselwa kwaye ndisebenzisa ngokupheleleyo iDiet Coke. Emva koko andizange ndijonge ngasemva. I-Caffeine yindlela endenze ngayo indlela yam kwikholeji. Emva koko uthathe isikolo. Emva koko umsebenzi wam wokuqala. Emva koko umntwana wam wokuqala. (Ungakhathazeki, ndathatha i-hiatus ngexesha lokukhulelwa kwam.) Emva koko abantwana bam abathathu abalandelayo kunye nomama omncinci kunye nemisebenzi kunye nokuzivocavoca kunye nokuhlamba iimpahla kunye ... ufumana ingcamango. Endaweni ethile emgceni, icaffeine yayihambile kwisiyobisi esingxamisekileyo ngamaxesha athile saya kukutya kokona kubalulekileyo.
Kwaye Wowu Ngaba ndandilikhoboka. Umlutha wam wawunamandla kangangokuba ndaye ndayeka ekuphela kwenxalenye emnandi-yokuthoba isiselo esimnandi-ukuya ngqo kwi-hit. Ukusela i-caffeine yam kwakudla ixesha elininzi ndaye ndathenga iipilisi zedosi mega kwi-intanethi ndaza ndagcina ibhotile enye esipajini sam, enye emotweni yam, kwaye enye ekhaya ngalo lonke ixesha. Kwipinki ndithatha ulwelo lwe-caffeinated obufanele ukurhweba kwibhotile yamanzi kwaye endaweni yoko ndilukhuphe ngqo emqaleni wam (olutshisa ngokwenene, ngendlela). Ayenzanga kuphela ukuba kube lula ukuyitya kodwa ndingathatha ngaphezulu ngaxeshanye. Kutheni uchitha ixesha kunye nemali kwikofu xa ndinokuthatha ipilisi kwaye ndenziwe ngayo?
Ingxaki ngeepilisi, nangona kunjalo, yeyokuba kulula kakhulu ukuzisebenzisa ngokugqithisileyo, into endayifunda kabuhlungu xa ndandithatha ezimbalwa kakhulu ngaphambi kokubaleka isiqingatha semarathon ndaze ndagqiba kwelokuba ndityhutyhe indlela yam yogqatso. Oogqirha bathi oko kungabusindisa ubomi bam njengoko ukugoba kubugcinile ekubeni yityhefu kwaye kumise intliziyo yam-into eyenzekileyo ebuhlungu kwabanye. Ungacinga ukuba ibiya kuba kukuvuka kwam ukuba ndinengxaki, kodwa hayi. Ndehlika umva, kodwa andayeka.
Inxalenye yomba yayikukuba ndandifuna icaffeine ukuze ndiphile ubomi obungafiki ncam ngokwemvelo kum. Ndihleli nje ndisisikhova ebusuku-umyeni wam ehlekisa ukuba awukwazi ukuncokola nam kuserious de kubethe u10...pm. Kodwa yile ndlela ndiyiyo. Ndihlala ndihlala kude kube sebusuku kwaye ndilale emva kwexesha kunokuvuka nelanga. Kodwa uyazi ukuba ngubani yenza uhlala ephuma nelanga (kwaye ngamanye amaxesha ngaphambili)? Abantwana, ngubani lowo. Ke ngokunyanzelwa kunye nemeko ndaba ngumntu wasentseni we-facto. Ayikuko ukuba bendonwabile ngayo, mind you. (I-FYI, nantsi isikhokelo sethu sokuba ngumntu wasekuseni-kwaye kutheni kufuneka uqale ukuvuka kwasekuqaleni.)
Ukwahlukana kwam necaffeine kweza xa ndafumanisa ukuba ndinesiphene sentliziyo esibelekweni (ibhlorho ye-myocardial). Ugqirha wam wezifo zentliziyo wandixelela ukuba icaffeine imbi kum kunabanye abantu, njengoko yayigxininisa isisipha sentliziyo esisele sinexinzelelo. Ndaqonda ukuba mandiyincame kodwa ndandingaqinisekanga ukuba njani. Bendinayo yonke imihla kangangeminyaka kwaye ndicinga nje ukuba kulunyulwa kuye kwayenzakalisa intloko yam. Ndilinde ke de ndafumana inyumoniya ndaza ndaya kubanda turkey. Kulungile, ke khange ndiyicwangcise ngaloo ndlela, yile nto yenzekileyo.
Ngo-Novemba ndagula kakhulu kwaye ndandihleli ebhedini iiveki ezimbini. Yonke into sele yenzakele, ke yintoni intloko encinci yokurhoxa ngaphezulu? Kwaye ukuba kukho umsebenzi ngokupheleleyo, 100 ekhulwini ayifuni caffeine, oko elele ebhedini imini yonke. Emva kokuba ndiphilile ndaziqhekeza zonke iipilisi zam-nditsho nokuxakeka okungxamisekileyo kwigunjana lam-kwaye andikhange ndibuke mva.
Imiphumo iye yaba ngummangaliso.
Into yokuqala endiyiqapheleyo emva kwe-caffeine-detox yindlela yokuphucula imeko yam. Ndizabalazile ngoxinzelelo kunye noxinzelelo kubo bonke ubomi bam kwaye ngekhe ndenze unxibelelwano phakathi komkhwa wam wecaffeine kunye nempilo yam yengqondo. Emva kokuba ndiyilahle i-caffeine, ndaziva ndizinzile ngakumbi ngokweemvakalelo kwaye ndincinci amathuba okuba ndothuke kwizinto ezincinci. Emva koko ndabona ukuba ukuthanda kwam ishukela kunciphile. Ndicinga ukuba icaffeine yayikufihlile ukudinwa kwam, kwaye xa udiniwe kunokwenzeka ukuba urhalele amashwamshwam angenampilo. Ekugqibeleni, ndaqala ukuqaphela amandla endalo. Ndaye ndaqalisa ukuthatha i-20-minute-power nap emva kwemini (into enzima ngokwenene ukuyenza ukuba une-caffeine empompa rhoqo ngemithambo yakho), eye yandinceda ukuba ndihlale ndigxilile kwaye ndinamandla imini yonke.
Kodwa mhlawumbi owona mahluko mkhulu uye walala nokuvuka kwam. Ndandihlala ndinengxaki yokungalali ngokwaneleyo, ngakumbi xa ndinxunguphele ngento ethile. Kodwa ngoku ndibanexesha elilula lokulala ndilale. Kwaye-oku kukhulu kum-ndiyakwazi ukuvuka kusasa ngaphandle kwewotshi ye-alarm njengoko umzimba wam uvuka ngokwemvelo malunga (oh, ewe) ukuphuma kwelanga. Ukuqala kwam ukubona i-pink edging phezu kweentaba ndaphantse ndadlula kukothuka. Kodwa yayintle kwaye inoxolo kwaye ndafumanisa ukuba iintsuku zam zihamba kakuhle kakhulu xa ndivuka kwangoko. Ngoku ezona yure zam zokusebenza zinemveliso ziphakathi kwentsimbi yesi-5 neyesi-7 kusasa, kwaye ndiye ndenze okuninzi ngaphambi kwemini enkulu kunokuba bendisenza usuku lonke. Andiziboni ngokwam, ngokunyaniseka, kodwa ndiyaluthanda utshintsho. (PS Nantsi indlela yokuzikhohlisa ukuba ube ngumntu wakusasa.)
Kuthathe ukuyeka ukuyeka ukuqonda ukuba ngelixa icaffeine indenza ndizive ngcono kwixesha elifutshane, ekuhambeni kwexesha ibindenza ndizive imbi kakhulu. Kum, umahluko phakathi kwangaphambi nasemva ufana nobusuku nemini: ngokuqinisekileyo ndingumntu wasekuseni ngoku kwaye ngeli xesha kukuzikhethela.
