Any Diet Coke drinkers who feel this way????


A lot of those ppl believe that there is nicotine in it.



Can you believe that??


Thats why I'm glad I don't drink Diet Coke.

Not just diet coke...also the coke have addictive substances.

Honey, it's not nicotine in it that's addictive but caffeine. Caffeine is a powerful stimulant which gives you energy and makes you feel more alert, having lots of caffeine regularly is addicitve and then not having it or withdrawing from it would make you tired and give you headaches.

Incidentally coca cola got its name from one of its original ingredients cocaine - it was branded as a health drink as a pick-me-up. Which it certainly would have done and would have been even more addictive than todays version!

Hey I am not your sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

There is no possible way that there is nicotine in diet coke, the reson being that I do drink coke (once a day) I can really simply stop, with out my body freaking out (I gave it up 40 days for lent.)

I am not addictid to it, but I suspect that my mother is. She has 1-2 diet cokes every day and she feels "week" without one. I am also thinking that it has somthing to do with caffine. (I only drink caffine free, and my mother drinks with caffine)

I thank goodness that I don't drink Diet coke. Now I'm glad that all I drink is Beer. The the Coke addicts to get help.

There is no nicotine but plenty of caffiene. The problems people have with any soda diet or not the is a cola is the caffiene. Some get sluggish,some get headaches. It is like going through withdrawl when you do not keep putting the caffiene in oyur system.

I wouldn't say I am addicted to carbonated beverages, I just don't care for the taste of water, and when you compare the price of soda to the price of juice, there is no question which is less expensive. I think people think they are addicted to things, but they don't really understand what it means to be addicted.
