I was drinking upwards of 8 cans of coke a day for a while my senior year of college (by which I mean earlier this year). Took a weekend and went cold turkey. I was unemployed at the time, and decided to just tough it out.

Holy crap.

I was falling asleep and not realizing it, splitting headaches, shakes. It was awful. If quitting smoking is worse than quitting soda, I have major props for anyone who has done the latter.

Anyways, I drink soda now, but much much less than I sued to.
