I have drank diet coke for years morning, noon and night I would drink atleast a 2 liter a day, I use to say I would go without food before I would diet coke..... About 4 months ago I decided to try to limit my intake after reading how bad it is for you, so I would make cold tea and have 1 glass of dc in the a.m and 1 glass at night and then if I went somewhere and got one I would drink it well that lasted for about for about 2 months and than MCDONALDS put there 42 oz sodas for .99 cent and me being the bargin shopper that I am I couldn't refuse that so everyday I would get 1 42 oz and drink it and before I knew it I was back to drinking it all the time and not drinking any tea, Last night I decided that was it I will not buy nor drink anymore diet coke nor any soda.. It has been less than 24 hours since I had one and I am having such a hard time I hate that stuff,, I will stay strong...

oh that is too bad. maybe you should just lessen it first. but then you already started withdrawing. we can only pray and support you in words.
i did that with carb. i had a headache, and i was in a bad mood. anyway, i survived 2 weeks without carb, which was my target. so i believe you can do, too. maybe you can chew on something, like candy, just to get your mind off coke?
what do you think?

Hey it sounds like you have a caffeine addictions maybe? Why don't you try Jones sugar free soda (with splenda sweetner only). Perhaps you should try another choice like their diet lemonade or tea or coffee at McDonalds? My mom is addicted to Dr Pepper--she can drink at least three to four cans a day. It's just that people get used to it, you could try decaffeinated coffee. Stay strong and Be blessed.
