Coke Addiction

Not cocaine, but Coca Cola/Pepsi addiction.
I find that during the day, i drink 1 or 2 cans or small bottles. and then when i get home, i go via the shop and buy a 2 litre bottle and kill it before i go to bed. Sometimes i even drink 2 2litre bottles.
Now, if i cant afford to get the bottle(s) of coke in the evening or the shop closed, i get really, REALLY moody. Ive even settled for "own brand" cola as a last resort if i havent been able to afford Coca Cola/Pepsi.
Do i have issues?
Yes

glad im not the only one haha.
i have noticed that i do shake ever so slightly. more a tremor than anything else i guess. No one can notice though, not like a micheal j fox shake so it might just be a paranoid thing
i might try and move onto Diet Caffine Free coke just so im cutting out most of the shit

I'm pretty sure it never contained synthesised/extracted cocaine, just coca leaves for flavouring. In fact, it still contains coca leaves. I'm sure I read somewhere that the coca cola company is the only company allowed to import HUEG quantities of coca leaves in to the USA. Red Bull cola contains them too as far as I know.

Ah fair enough. I probably read it ages ago on wikipedia, and we all know how reliable that place is for information.

Probably the caffeine.
Whenever I don't get my daily dose of caffeine I can get moody, extremely tired, etc.
Really bad for my age but I don't care, it tastes good.
