Dr pepper withdrawal?

Question

I am in France and i can't find Dr pepper.A guy here told me that they do have it. Help! my hands are shaking and i can't keep any food down. i think that i am having withdrawal symptoms. What do i do!?

Answer 1

if you drink dr pepper everyday several times a day you may be having  a caffein withdrawl. i went thru the same thing and a friend of mine told me to drink black coffee or have an expresso. it worked for me.

Answer 2

I had the same problem when I was in Asia. You had better start drinking coke or pepsi.

Answer 3

Don't know where in France you are but I know the supermarket "Intermarche" in Rouen sold cans of Dr. Pepper for 99 centimes  and in Lyon there's a shop (can't remember the name, sorry!) that sold all kinds of American products.

Answer 4

it is withdrawl. Cigarette smokers go through this when quitting.

are you sure they dont have something like it? I hope you find it , or chew on sugar gum, get a cappucino at a cafe, because you should enjoy france, not have withdrawl =[

best of luck.

Answer 5

You poor thing. No Dr Pepper in France, I have to import it from the UK for a friend with the same symptoms and we are in Paris where you usually can get (nearly) everything.

Have you tried (dare I say it) Coca or Pepsi? I heard it's nearly the same thing.

Answer 6

Go find a Dr. Pepper!! and just for the record....you can become addicted to any soda especially Dr. Pepper due to the amount caffeine in it. Withdraws can come from sudden stoping . Headaches are usually the first symptom to show up first. Maybe if your living in France, you can't be a Pepper too!! Good Luck.

Answer 8

LOL!  I have no idea where you can get Dr. Pepper in Paris, but I have to tell you this story.  About 10 years ago I was giving a marketing presentation to a group of French businessmen about marketing segmentation.  It was the typical American business meeting in Dallas where there was a spread of snacks, water & soft drinks.

I was drinking a diet Dr. Pepper and at the end of my talk one of the French guys was fascinated by my Dr. Pepper & wanted to try one.  I poured him a glass & he started to sniff it!

I had to tell him that there was no bouquet!  It was just a sugary soft drink.

Answer 9

sorry for you but there is NO Dr Pepper in France they even withdrew Redbull.because they thought it was unhealthy

Answer 10

Go over to Breakfast in America at 17, rue des Ecoles in the 5th arr. They serve Dr. Pepper.  3.20 euros.

Answer 11

I have a friend in Paris (a French guy) who is a big fan of

Dr. Pepper.  Everytime someone he knows heads up to Luxembourg for the week-end, he asks them to bring him back a case of Dr. Pepper.  It is not expensive there either.  

Not sure how far you are from Luxembourg though.  It is not  far from Paris (about 3 1/2 hours drive, less by train).   :)

You may have to consider switching to something else.
