Default Splenda withdrawal

Hi guys

I have been using splenda everday for almost 2 years now and have very bad side effects from it including insomnia, anxiety attacks, depression etc. I never associated it with Splenda until after several anxiety attacks that my Dr asked me about my daily diet and told me to stop consuming immediately.

Now that I put 2 and 2 together it makes a whole lot of sense. I went cold turkey didnt even bother weaning off of it. Now I am having horrible headaches and Aleve isn't helping. Is this normal?
