I apologize if this has been done before but I'm going to say it... I am insanely addicted to diet coke!

I drink at least a can a day... and sometimes up to 3 cans a day (maybe twice a week). I know soda in general is bad for me and I want to kick the habit, but I seriously can't stop. I also know that sounds silly, and I'm embarrassed to even admit that in a forum where people may struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, but I really can't stop.

But I also don't want to stop. I feel such great satisfaction in getting my daily caffeine kick from diet coke. Also it's not even so much the caffeine i'm addicted to (because I've tried to switch to tea & other stuff) it's the taste that is so great and the fulfillment I get from actually drinking a can of diet coke! I hate eating meals without it, and sometimes get sincerely bummed when I realize I ran out but it's too late to go to the store.

Has anyone else ever felt so powerless over something so trivial? What did you do?
