Tell me about it. Diet cokes caused me to have to retire early from the military. I was drinking a 6 pack a day and lost the ability for my mind to multitask. It became dangerous for me to drive because my mind would focus and lock in on anything that attracted me and often I would run out of my traffic lane. Flying (especially in the desert where people were shooting at me) was even more hazardous.
I quit the diet junk (especially aspertame sweeteners) just after I retired and my ability to multitask quickly returned. I now drink 1-2 regular sodas a day and find it easier to keep weight off than when I was drinking the diet stuff.
