What can I do to conquer my soda addiction?

I am addicted to soda, it's my coffee. I love the fizzy sparkling feeling it leaves in your mouth, plus it's good. I only drink diet soda, I hate regular soda it taste too sugarey and I get sick from it. Diet soda I'm fine with...but I'm a little worried cause I basically live off of this stuff... I don't drink any water through out the day cause water tastes...well plain. I'm picky about taste, and I've tried other drinks but I always go back to soda. Normally I wouldn't care, but diet soda has Aspartame and I've heard that's not very good for you... I tried making crystal light lemonade but the water through the faucet tastes like shit, even with the filter in the fridge it taste bleck. I hate artificial fruit flavors, especially watermelon and cherry. So you can see that my stubborn pickyness has led me back to the nummy and fizzy drinks all the time; I've had like 7 cans today. o__o PLEASE, if you can list any other kind of drinks that won't burn a hole through my wallet but are not so cheap that they are gross and bad. I fruity flavors, and I refuse to drink coffee, it smells both gross and taste gross to me, I've got enough caffine inside of me thanks lol Soda doesn't quench my thirst, it does for a few minutes but then I'm thirsty again and I've noticed my scalp and skin have been looking kinda dry and weird...idk if it's cause it's winter or if it's the constant soda... Suggestions! thank you That's one way to discourage...-sips soda- nope didn't work -_____- hahaha

1. aspartame is the waste product from ecoli that was genetically modified to eat toxic waste.
2. Buy sparkling water? Its plain water with all the CO2 goodness.
3. I like to drink plain sparkling water (just mountain spring water and CO2) with a few drops of root beer flavored SweetLeaf Liquid Stevia. It tastes similar to root beer and it has 0 calories, 0 carbs, and a glycemic index of 0.
