I recently stopped drinking Mountain Dew
& well.. Soda altogether. Today is Day
#3 & I've done real good besides today
at Wendy's having a Diet Coke with my
cheeseburger.
Right now I have such a bad headache that
I could just sit here & cry. I'm
freezing & extremely shakey.
Anyone else gone through this or have any
words of wisdom to share?

I stopped drinking soft drinks when I was
13. I've been drinking water ever since.
I would have an occasional diet coke, but
that's it. You'll feel so much better and
you'll lose some weight too! Keep it up.
You'll get through this.

yeah i had really really bad headaches.
Almost migranes. They do go away, but it
takes a couple weeks. Or it did for me.
But i say it's normal. Soda addiction is
like any other. Maybe not has bad as drugs
or whatever. lol maybe i don't know what
i'm talking about. I hope it gets better
for you soon!

lol Holly. Thank you! I've never had a
migraine but I can honestly say this is
the worst headache I've ever had. I took 2
Exedrin Tension Headaches earlier because
that was what I thought was wrong but they
did absolutely NOTHING

Mountain Dew is full of caffine and that
is why it can be so addicting. You body is
missing all that caffine nw and your
coming down off the caffine high. Caffine
is also used to treat migrain headaches.
If you are a coffee drinker, I would start
of with a couple cups of coffee a day and
then try and taper dow then to a
de-caffinated drink. Ask your doctor as
ther may be something out there that can
help you through this.
