    I’m not. Trying to get away from sugary drinks for the I don’t know how manyth time, because water is boring and diet drinks usually taste like cancer (they got better though).

      Have you tried getting into tea? There are so many tasty blends out there, it’s how I kicked my soda addiction. Well, until I could enjoy unsweetened coffee.

      I managed to make the jump to 7-up free from Coke. I do quite enjoy it now.

      You can also try those dilute drinks, to liven up water.

      🫤 Sorry to hear that, friend.

      So like, is water actually unpleasant to drink for you, or can you drink it but you’d rather have the sugar stuff? Wondering about how you phrased it as “boring”.

      Other stuff I’m curious about, to educate myself:

      1. What stage of life are you in, like past your 20s? Midlife? Retirement?
      2. What part of the world do you live in? Cardinal direction of continent perhaps?

      Share whatever parts you feel comfortable with! 😁

        Water is just boring, gives me nothing, which leads to me not drinking and ending up dehydrated.

        Honestly, I don’t want to go into details. I didn’t create and post this meme to get help or tips (partly because my situation is very complex and I don’t want to explain it extensively), I just did because the comparison came to my mind and I wanted to share it. Also coping a little.

          Perfectly understandable, although I’m not trying to give help or tips. (I can’t, I know nothing about this disorder. 😓) I was trying to understand it better. But yeah, totally fine, let’s not get into it if you don’t feel like it. 👌

          I’m glad you shared what you did so far. I learned about this issue today, so that was something you gave to me, so thank you for that.

          Have a better 2026 than 2025!
