I'm still hooked on diet Mountain Dew.
I found out that it(as well as many other diet sodas) contain phenylalanine, a low lever nootropic that can enhance mental function and even stave off Parkinson's Disease. Aside from the fact that it's also a CNS stimulant due to caffeine content.
When I did quit it a few years ago, I found that green teas was a big help. Celestial Seasonings has a honey lemon ginseng tea that tastes great.
Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about it. You're obviously active and fit, and there will always be bigger and scarier things to deal with in your life.
