I love my coffee breaks. I feel like it is kind of like smoking - although I don't. You get to take a break from the world and "treat" yourself. I love social drinking too, but I am learning that I am probably more social with a little less. Something about being social that brings out my insecurities. I find the older I get the more lovely I find myself the less I require.
But back to the coffee issue, going cold turkey was instantly awful but the rewards were amazing within two days. I am sleeping and I don't wake up exhausted with muscle cramps. More like when I was a child. Of course I'm most positive the lack of alcohol has been a major boon as well. Looks like life is really starting to click in for you and balance is yours! Have a lovely day!
