I 've got a theroy and all who could prove it shall be greatly apprecitaed..

Now then I get stressed at some points .. as do we all.. no drinks except water -tap or sprite.

When I drink two or more regular cans ( 12 oz.) my stress goes away by at least 85 % .. can you tell me if I've stumbled onto to a simi -help for us and stress?

water reduces stress for you?..

the sprite doesn't surprise me because it has sugar in it.. withdrawals later might have an opposite affect, but chocolate is more closer to something that reduces stress because of something in it.. but yeah sugar in general tends to reduce stress

I drink coca cola, for a 'lift'. I also drink tonic water if I have a mental fog, it seems to clear the fog, it has quinine in it.

When I was a kid and was sick my dad always gave me 7-Up and to this day I find that a comfort drink.

do you get high off that? Some guy told me he can get shitfaced (his term) by drinking that and I remember some guy from debate team (closest thing to 'head debater' if there was a formal term) apparently getting seizures and falling out from drinking too much of that in a tournament....I can't verify it; being something I heard the coach say..

I don't really drink it for the buzz, i just find they taste great (with a few exceptions). Mind you this one time i went to the bar and had like 8 red bulls. I wasn't buzzed, but i was pretty sick of the taste.

Haven't found anything to take my stress away, but a large Hershey's choc bar with almonds always helps.

Dire situations usually need re-inforcement...like brownies. 8)
