it might be the caffine id sat talk to your doctor or try tea w/caffine or something healthier than soda =)

Well you should see how many mt dews I drink a day!!! Im gonna say about 6 cans. Im addicted!!!!!!!

I love soft drinks too but try not buying them as much, so when you feel like drinking it, you wont have any. So please try to stop drinking it. 1 can per day at the most. That will help your brain and stomache stop 24/7 cravings. You can also try chewing bubble gum, when you feel like drinking it. Or just replace the drinks with a different food that you like.

If you claim you cant' stop, then I guess there's no hope. You can slowly taper off cutting down by a few ounces a day over a period of weeks or even 3-4 months.

It is the caffeine in the soda that are most likely causing the headaches.

If you are drinking 3 cans a day. Try to wean down to non-caffeine brand. 1 can caffeine 2 cans no-caffeine coke. Then once the headaches are gone, try replacing 1 of the three cans with gingerale or water, or green tea whatever you like.
Continue until you are no longer drinking soda so much durring the day. Water is a great alternative. Try with a little fresh lemon or lime. It may take a day or two to acquire a new taste for something else, but you should be able to overcome the need for soda. Good luck.

Man, you are rotting your teeth out. Just know that you are going to get headaches and stop drinking it. The headaches will pass. Drink bottled water to substitute. One day at a time!!

it is an addiction to caffeine. the same thing happens to me when i don't have my morning coffee. you can do it. it just has to be gradual. drop 1 per week until you are down to 1 then drink 1/2 can for a week then none. you will have a slight headache but it won't be nearly as bad as going cold turkey.

it might help if u just don't buy it. then u addiction grows smaller!

That's nothing compared to me and my mom we drink a 12 pack of cokes in less than 2 days or maybe if we get lucky they last 3. just stop buying them and buy lots of other drinks and maybe a six pack put buy loads of other drinks and drink less coke everyday. But like my mom says at least your adddicted to coke and not something else lol (are you? LOL)

You are addicted to the caffeine. It's the same thing for coffee drinkers...you get a headache when you stop...BUT, as an avid coffee drinker who stops on occasion, the headaches only last a day or so and they go away. It's worth it. 3 coke's a day is close to 500 calories a day...that's empty calories and only will make you large. If you can't deal with the headaches, you could try a bit of caffeinated tea instead. If you want to stop drinking it, you just have to fight through the headaches. Take a pain killer or something to help with it...good luck!
