    Yes, it’s soda.

    Phil, you’re not going mad you’re just feeling the withdrawal from caffeine and sugar. You can cut it out little by little but you’re still likely to feel tired and maybe have a headache. Or you can cut it all out as once like I did and just deal with the feelings for a while.

    What sort of fizzy drinks we talking? I'm exactly the same with cups of tea tbh.

    Just push through it tbh.

    Sometimes you feel bad for a while and just have to take it.

    It's pop, not heroin.

    Start with a diet soda, many of them have stevia which is a natural sugar supplement without the sucrose. Try a diet ginger ale, I'm partial to them as I don't drink alcohol. Cut out Coke or Cola as they have caffine.

    Try fruit. Once you get used to it, it's like eating some sex.

    I'm now more or less addicted to watermelon, kiwi, passion fruit and grapes.

    Your tastes will change, phil. I found this the more I trained myself away from sweet things. You stop wanting them as much and can find things you used to eat are now too sweet.

    Just keep cutting down and you will soon get there.

    I've recently given up sweet things (and a lot of carbs, which often have hidden sugar too). It's amazing how quickly your weight can also drop because you're actually eating less food. I've increased my water and also hot drinks (without sugar).

    I used to have gluten free cereal and yogurt for breakfast, but now have stewed fruit (what's in season without sugar),and yogurt with walnut pieces on top... yummy
