I know it's hard to have to give up alot of things especially when you have a mood disorder and that's why I clung to my diet coke with a vengeance. I'm not ditching my Prozac or my low dose Depakote just yet...but I have to tell you this past week I have not felt the extreme fatigue that has been affecting me for the last few years either. Most importantly for me, is that my moods are not shifting all day long as they were before and I definately had some agitation and irritability going on with the diet coke and pepsi. Also, Pepsi came out with "Pepsi Edge" which is a low calorie soda with no aspartame (they use splenda instead) it tastes pretty much like regular Pepsi and much better than Diet Rite. Anyhow, I am going to give this a shot. BTW I lost 2 pounds in one week since giving up "diet" sodas!
