But i feel rested and im prety sure the cafeine is not in my body anymore. What can be happening to me. Oh just yesterday i felt the need to cry.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. From the given information, it seems that you are young. Palpitations are usually due to stress and agitation. You should watch your heart beat after you struggle physically. Your heart beat will be high. After a period of rest, it will come to normal. But if you take rest and obsess your heart beat, the rate will slightly go up. That slight change will feel as if beating faster and fuller. I suggest you not to obsess with your heart beats, otherwise you will be troubled with anxiety disorder. You may consult a physician to rule out any other organic causes. Take care.

If you still need my assistance in this regard, please use this link. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Please remember to describe the whole problem with full detail.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
