Woah the Soda

[BondJamesBond]

Disclaimer You'll need to know that I drink soda once a month kay, like 2-3 weeks. I don't think that's much.

Today I feel off. Had a bad day at school, and am really stressed/overwhelmed with school work and [stuff]... I'm an idiot.

Normally I'm able to just suck it all up, but there are times when I just feel I just need to quit. So I did what I always do to relax and get my bearings together. Call everything off for the day, buy a 2-liter of soda, and take naps.

Normally I get Pepsi, just because it seems to calm me down the best. But one of the reasons I am stressed is because of my recent excessive spending. So, as I looked across the aisle for something cheap, I found Coca-Cola Vanilla. I figured it didn't matter since all sodas taste the same to me.

Got back home, took a generous swig of the drink, then fell onto the couch. Two minutes later, my head started to hurt. My eyes opened, but I shut them again, so I could sleep. It wasn't working, so I took another drink. Basically, I was awake for an hour, just drinking the soda. I was halfway done.

I quit trying to sleep, sat upright, and just took some more sips of the soda. I got 3/4 of the bottle down. Insane. I couldn't stop. The soda was supposed to make me feel better, but it made me feel like crap. When I feel like crap, I want more soda.

Now I'm typing this. I said I would just finish the 2 liter bottle today, throw it away, and forget it all. Yeah, that's a ****load of soda and sugar. I think it was like 80% of the recommended daily intake.

The question is... What do you feel when you're drinking soda, or maybe after the soda. Do you use sugar or sweets to cheer yourself up? Is it hard to control yourself with the soda after a sip? Soda.

EDIT: oh my gawd, I finished the soda and I puked.

[Dascoo]

It's called Pop silly.

[iDante]

I drink about 4-5 cans of Docter Pepper a day... Its good.

And yes, it does cheer me up.

[excruciator]

pop makes me feel.....refreshed, at least, cold pop
warm pop makes feel like crap

[Rai-Dei]

I actually was worried for my health with all the pop I used to drink, as diabetes runs in my family, so I gave up and went on WATER.

So James, DRINK TEH WATER!

[ThunderPantz]

I still drink pop... i can't quit just like that... i used to drink 3 cans a day, now i drink like 3 cans every 2 weeks

The one main ingredients in pop that makes us all feel better is caffeine. Yeah, it's the same stuff in coffee that makes you as happy as a hippy.

[Chariot]

What the fuck is this 'pop' shit? Who says 'pop'? Are you guys all from Minnesota or something??

I think I'm addicted to caffeine. When I can't have some, I get all nervous. Nothing feels right.

Pop is what northern people call soda. Chariot you probably are addicted. Caffeine is very easy to get addicted to, best thing to do is quit cold-turkey. Its will suck for a few days but after that you will feel alot better.

[Rai-Dei]

Ya man, what the Bearded fellow said water will make you feel so much better.

[Blue-ninja]

I'm not that addicted to caffeine, hadn't drank the stuff in days. Right now, I'm drinking one because of this thread. Weird huh?

[n00bface]

Are you guys all from Minnesota or something??

yes.

there are chemicals in coke [not sure about other soft drinks] that actually stimulate the pleasure areas of your brain and make you feel pretty good for about 1-2 hours afterward but after that, your rain is spent and you begin to feel like crap plus its a diaretic so you need to piss heaps afterward as the coke effectively drains your body of all useful fluids.

so yeah you fele good for a bit but then you feel like shit plus if you drink 3 or more softdrinks in a day, you will have 62% more tooth decay than people who don't

[Blue-ninja]

There should be a type of pop that has all the pleasure and no drawbacks.

Caffeine free coke. I am addicted to it.

that was in the early 1900's when the guy who 'invented' coke simply mixed cocaine with red wine

back then it was sold as a medical syrup that could cure an 'astounding' amount of illnesses and mystery pains

but when someone bought the actual coke rights and patented it off the deadassalcoholic inventor, it was 'decoked' and a new mix was made that became the coke we all know and love

[a-4-year-old]

i feel nothing from caffeine.

[Sotija]

I Drink Mineral water and juice

Yeah i sometimes drink  Coca-Cola light and Fanta
Makes me feel good.

[PANZERCATWAGON]

I drink fucking buttloads of the shit, and does it affect me? I think not ... uhahhuuuhuuuuuuuuu .....

Seriously though, I agree it's not good for you, but I don't care.
