Have you ever seen someone claiming to be coca cola addict?

[Jellyshroom]

I mean i genuinely don’t understand how, like if it’s sugar, nearly every snack has sugar in it…

[NathanDavis]

well yeah... because I've been claiming it for the almost five years I've been on this site, so... let me explain

first of all, no... I was not wandering at the corners selling my body for a Coca~cola, no

but like all addictions, I was trapped in a cycle of very very bad habits with this wonderful sugary drink... and we're talking about Hellish, Texas here, and we're talking about temperatures around 116 during the summer, right?

that was the main reason why I had a Coca~Cola at lunch (in school) and then I also had another Coca~Cola at dinner time, at my house... and sometimes, whenever I got too hot during the day, I would even get a third one, which was often because I was that much into sports and other active activities

one good day, I was approached by these girl in college and she says to me "we're making a study about "sugar addictions" so I right away knew why she looked at me, lmfao... " I said, sure... fire away with the questions

she asked me a whole lot of questions, regarding my habits and consumption of the sweet black gold, which I answered and as I answered, I realized that, DAYUM!!! I actually drink a whole lot of it, and her... being the student on the matter, gave me a whole lecture on the effects, of consuming that much sweet sugar, and after that, she gave me the plan

she said "you have to be VERY HONEST, because my grade depends on you and your honesty... for the next full month, you will NOT consume any Coca~Cola anymore and don't find any substitutes for it either, and every day, try to write down a report for me, how you feel about it, what do you experience if anything, and if you fail... how long did it take to fail, and explain why"

I definitely saw it as a challenge, and also kind of laughed it off... you know, the typical "I can stop any time I want" and the three days were not a problem, as long as I remembered that I was supposed NOT TO DRINK any, because of the study, it was okay... but oh boy, by the third or fourth day... the thoughts started, and I could not stop thinking about it, I literally started to crave the sensation of it and I started to feel annoyed by it, lmfao

and the food started to feel, not the same... and I kind of started to convince myself that food wasn't the same or was not as good without Coca~Cola, so yeah... I was definitely stuck into a habit, and also... I started to feel a bit upset, not only in my mind but also in my stomach, my gut was definitely missing the sugar too, and that became a bit of an issue

the only reason why I completed the full month with no sugary drinks was because I'm stubborn AF, and also because... it was going to be good for her grades and all that, and I said I would help her with that, lol

after that... I went back to drink Coca~Cola as usual, for some months till the one day I finally got in trouble and ended up in the hospital with gastritis and other stuff, and yeah... that was because of this and other bad habits at the time, so... was I full addicted to it? or the same as someone who is addicted to drugs? no... is not the same, but all addictions are different really

the one thing they all have in common is... the habit controls your decision making, for sure... and for me to finally quit it, took months if not a full year to control

[NathanDavis]

also... I knew very well, that if I kept drinking it AFTER I got in trouble the first time I would get in trouble again

and yes... I ended up in the hospital a second time, lmao... which is typical of addicted people

"you don't give a fuck and still do it"

[DryGermanGuy]

Maybe not addicted, but it can certainly be a habit. I had that habit myself. 🤷‍♂️

[DishLady]

Words like "addict" and "feminism" have been warped to mean things they were not originally intended to mean. An ADDICTION is not a term to be taken lightly.

[queenofcardio]

I've only seen people online make those claims. I don't know anyone personally that has that addiction.

[AI Opinion]

I have come across people who claim to be Coca-Cola addicts. It usually boils down to the combination of sugar and caffeine, which can be quite compelling. While sugar is found in many snacks, the specific blend of flavors and refreshing fizz in Coca-Cola creates a unique experience. I remember a trip to Japan where I tasted a limited-edition cherry blossom-flavored Coca-Cola – it was a delightful twist on a classic. 🍒🥤

[loveslongnails]

My ex roommate was addicted to it. It was the first thing he had when he woke up, last thing at night, and probably 4 or 5 during the day.

[7Phoenix7]

I knew someone lol

[Abbycado]

Never had anyone I know claim that.

[strawberryapple]

Yess

[lilBigPotato]

Nope.
