Weening myself from Diet Dr. Pepper has proven to be a harder task that I thought it would be. It's not the cravings that hurt, but the caffeine headaches. Yesterday, I had half of a 20 oz bottle during the day. By 3pm, I had the worst headache. I took some Advil and really thought it was just sinuses. By the time I got home, I was dizzy, nauseous and sick to my stomach.
I filled the bathtub up with luck warm water and climbed in. I put a rag over my eyes and just laid in the darkness. It didn't help. While I was in the tub, Tony had gone to the grocery store and had bought me some DDP...he is such a good man!! He brought me a glass with 10 more ounces so I could get a fix!! Within 30 minutes of drinking it, I was feeling so much better.
If anyone wants to argue that caffeine is not a drug, they need to try to eliminate it from their daily consumption. Are you kidding me....headaches and nausea....that's drug withdrawal my friend!!!!!
