Addicted to Coca-Cola..is this possible?

[Snagglepuss]

I have other drinks at my house.Sweetened Ice-T water ect ect...I find whenever im drinking something other than Coca Cola .I think about coke and end up going out ans buying it.

Lately ive been drinking a 2 liter a day,i dunno i feel like i may be addicted to it.I have vices like smoking and taking pills but addicted to a soda?

Does anyone else have a food or drink besides alcohol they think they might be addicted to? Im thinking i may be ,hooked on the sugar rush or something,i didn't think it was possible.But now i don't know.Sodas are corrosive to your teeth and generally bad for you.But for some reason ,i just can't stop......

^coca cola is very addicting. I have the same issues. I don't even drink alcohol, but I will binge on coca cola. It is not in your head either. It is a chemical addiction.

I am trying very hard to stop them. the sugar and caffeine is very addicting, and coca cola has cinnamon in it which when combined with caffeine and sugar amplify the effects, pepsi doesn't do it for me.

I am finding Orange juice is the best replacement.

You take that first sip, and your tongue tingles. The carbon dioxide added to sodas to make them fizzy is reacting with acid in your mouth. A ripple of bubbles tickles your gums, the hollows of your cheeks, the back of your throat.

Fuck i knew it!!! I love this stuff...I'm glad to hear im not alone...........

fucking coke heads! lol

used to be the same, for about 10 years, even chugged 3-4 liters a day at the end, sometimes even 6.

then i just got bored with it, switched to some orange soda, got tired with that too, now i just drink milk! lol.

but yeah, wake up in the morning and that first sip of coke is like an orgasm, but like any ride it gets tiring and you need a break or something new.

oh hey, take care of your teeth, id brush 2-3 times every day (after every meal)

Aside from the caffeine and the ritual, it's the high-fructose corn syrup. You can almost live off the calories. It's bad stuff, one of the single biggest contributors to diabetes. If you're overweight and or any of your extended family are diabetic, there's a higher chance you'll be diabetic at 50 if you're consuming high amounts of HFCS.

I never got hooked on coffee. It's always been a soda and Coca Cola is my favorite. Not everybody remembers the 'New Coke' debacle. Those dumb asses actually took the original formula off the shelves and substituted something this side of dirty dish water. Talk about consumer revolt. Then the dumb asses sold 'Coke' (new coke) alongside 'Classic Coke'. You had to pay attention to what you grabbed or you'd get that nasty dishwater shit. Back then you could tell folks you're a 'classic' lover and they knew what you meant.

I think they finally took the 'new' shit off the shelves.

Man it is Mnt Dew for me, I have got it down to 2 cans a day but I definitely have a jones for it and want to drink 12 cans a day. Used to be Coke but I kicked my Coke habit many years ago.

I drink MD too. But that's mainly because Pepsi sucks balz. Too much sugar

I used to drink lots of Bud Light. That's about the only time I wasn't drinking Coke all the time. IMO, Bud Light isn't as bad as soda, lol.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

this is what you need right here... all the sugar and twice the caffeine

my dads been addicted to diet coke as long as i can remember...always brought like 3 cans with him to work after having 1 or 2 for breakfast. and hes a damn dentist.......
always felt horrible for him....

i agree with discobiscut, jolt is awesome... just wish they still sold it in my neck of the woods. well i suppose they do, but its as this energy drink formulation that tastes like crap, but thats besides the point. caffeine addiction is possible and it's a hard monkey to try and yank off your back. i should know, i've tried.

i have little doubt that those around me would suffer should the modern world break down and i go with out coffee.

 

[PorkSword]

I'm a Pepsi, Mt Dew or Orange Crush addict. If its not coffee its a soda. I know its bad but its soo good.

I hate drinking water.

 

[Stoner4Life]

as mentioned above just be careful of the diabetic potential of over consuming that much sugar in a day, there's almost 8 ounces of sugar in that 2 liters.......

 

[sneaky101]

I can tell a major difference in my attitude in the mornings if I don't have my coke. Even if I have smoked already. Even worse a day or two later if istill haven't had a coke. Yep, I'm addicted!

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

You know you're addicted when you can drink a coke and still sleep like a baby. I can't drink a glass of tea or a cup of regular coffee though, I'll stay up all night. I bet a cup of decaf would fuck me up.

Anybody tried decaffeinated coke? I can't tell the difference in it and regular. I think I'm addicted to the taste more than anything. Good thing it doesn't still have cocaine in it.

splitting headaches when i'm off the stuff... it has to be a combo of the sugar & caffeine.

try the starbucks coffee drinks... at 3 bucks a pop... makes u a better class of druggie... lol

 

[hashcat88]

^i had one of those starbucks doubleshots this week when i had to make a drive from 11pm-6am and really need a boost. i never drink caffeine (one soda a week maybe) and this shit had me straight TWEAKING lol i couldnt sleep till 10am.

so glad i dont need caffeine....a nice glass of water is all i need to feel great until i get breakfast in me. all my friends think im nuts "dude you could actually enjoy your mornings if you drank coffee like us!" they dont get it....i DO enjoy my mornings lol

 

[yortbogey]

coca-cola is what made me diabetic..... and Soda is STILL my Biggest/ Hardest Addiction.... I literally cannot function and or wake UP eaCH DAY... WITH-OUT SUM

recently started drinking Dr. Pepper TEN..... new stuff w/ Very LOW sugar content but, NOT Diet w/ Sugar Alcohol's..... that just as bad a sugar for me....

U should try it......
and one point-in my career....food service.... I could consume 20- 30 cokes EACH day...... Dam endless supply of Soda machines......
