You hold down a job, maintain relationships, and pay your taxes, all while running on a steady supply of Dr Pepper most people would find concerning. This is the functioning tier: the habit is significant, but you've built a whole life around it that works. You don't have a Dr Pepper problem. You have a Dr Pepper system. The difference is that the system has a stockpile.

Official diagnosis: The Functioning Pepperhead. I hold down a whole life on a steady supply of Dr Pepper. It's not a problem, it's a system.
