I've been sober for 8 weeks now. YAY!!!!!!!!
Now, I drink 2L of Club Soda a day. Will that end up killing me?

Yes I have and I do believe that one really can't give up one addiction without picking up another one. The positive thing is you've replaced your old habit with a more positive one (non damaging). You're one smart bunny!
Side note: now if i could only apply your wisdom to my own life...i maybe wouldn't be so f'ed up.

Yay! I'm proud of you! You could replace it with an addiction to Yahoo Answers.

Hello Dr. E- I had NO idea that you had a challenge in your life regarding addiction! (This is one of my areas of specific expertise.....)
Congratulations on your accomplishment & please contact me if you EVER need assistance with it.
No, LOL I don't think that Club Soda will kill you. I personally drink Seltzer (which has no sodium) rather than Club (which does).
Water with lemon may be an even better alternative, but try adding a squirt of lemon or lime juice to your soda.
Again, please don't hesitate to contact me, either here or privately, for any reason-or even for no specific reason, if you need someone to talk with.

A million times, YES.
Like David said, no I dont hink that will kill you.
I would suggest that you just stay aware of that it tends to happen, switching one addiction for another.
Congrats on the 8 weeks!!!!((((huggg)))
You can also talk to me if ever you like.
Blessings Doc.

WOOOO HOOOO!!
I am so proud of you!!
I have never really been addicted to anything-- so I can't say I have ever replaced it with something...
But I think you are good with the Club Soda. I've never heard of Death by Carbonation.

I had a boyfriend that gave up drinking to be a sex addict.
