It contains artificial sweeteners instead of sugar which are just as bad.

It's not addicting to you, it's addicting, period.

I started a no sugar diet 2 months ago and in the first 2 weeks i also had withdrawal symptoms.

As for OP, kill your sugar addiction by going on a no sugar diet for a few months, then add sugar in moderation (if you'll even want to at that point) while prioritizing, say you have to pick between soft drinks and chocolate, which would you give up on? keep doing this elimination until you have 5 things and limit yourself to those 5. or alternatively have anything you want with sugar as long as it only consists something like 15% of everything you eat.

The truth is your taste buds and desires change and adapt accordingly, i had to go on a no sugar diet to eliminate an illness so i had to start by having only herbs which taste bad for a week and a half, after that i could start having a specific smoothie (handful spinach, celery stick, half avocado, half cucumber, 2 apples) and you know what? after the yucky stuff i had to eat that smoothie felt equivalent to a milkshake lol
after 2 more weeks i could have soups and salads, 2 things i always hated and probably only ate like 3 times in my whole life until that point, again, after being limited to only veggie shakes, soups and salads were like the best thing in the world.

You need to experiment with different fruit+veggie juices and smoothies, find 4 you like and can replace all other drinks with, youtube Jason Vale for that, he has a lot of recipes. When you find ones you like just mass produce them, put 1 bottle in the fridge and freeze the others.
As for snacks, you have health bars, yugurt with sweet fruit, all kinds of sugarless cereals you can have with milks healthier than cows milk (almond is an easy one to make at home) and all kinds of recipes, see if something here tickles you fancy

Im not completely cutting out sugar, I dont mind having low sugar drinks, for example the monster peach tea is really good and only has 2 grams of sugar. Its mostly just cutting out excess sugar, like pop, candy, potarts etc. I dont mind if that peanut butter has 3 grams or if pasta will turn to sugar because carbs or if there's something like fruit with plenty of natural sugar
