Not sure if that helps you with your demon, but cold turkey a little bit of withdrawl is what you have to do. Good luck...

Oh my goodness! I was a heavy soda drinker myself (Pepsi was my drug of choice) - but I would get eye twitches! I always thought it was my nerves, but since reading your thread, I just realized I've only had a twitch once since quitting soda over a year ago (that time I was worrying about buying a new car). Wow! The things we learn from this LBT.
