Grateful for a hot cup of black tea via /r/gratitude

I have been caffeine -free for years in the hope it would help my insomnia (it doesn't).

Last week one day I decided to have a cup of black (caffeinated) tea; I had a migraine and had read that caffeine helps sometimes. It tasted so insanely good. Just a fuller flavour than decaf tea, and I'd forgotten how good it was.

And, the headache went away (I'd also taken a bunch of ibuprofen, which on its own doesn't usually help), my mood was really good for the rest of the day, and I had more energy. Not sure if they're related, but maybe caffeine actually does something positive for me.

So I'm having another cup now.
