I've long known that CocaCola affects me differently than most people. For a long time, I thought it was the caffeine in it, but then I drank Mt Dew (with more caffeine) and didn't have the same problems.
Basically, it's really addictive to me. If I start drinking it, I'll feel the need to drink more and more until I'm drinking enough that it makes me physically ill each day... And I will just continue.
It took me a while to get off it, and other caffeinated drinks do not affect me in the same way.
I didn't realized, until now, that they still used an extract from the coca leaf. That seems like it's different from every other drink out there, and maybe that's why it affects me differently. Hopefully this knowledge can help strengthen my resolve to stay off of it.
It's really sad, too, because I love the flavor. I just can't handle it.
Me too.
I highly suspect Coca Cola was specifically designed in a way that it can not quench one's thirst.
Once you open a bottle, you can not stop drinking it until it is finished.
That's why I completely stopped drinking Coca Cola few years ago.
