Any coping mechanisms for ditching carbs and sugar?

I’ve been doing low carb fir couple of weeks and have been relying heavily on dark chocolate and desserts made with fake sweetner.. well I think this made me crave the real thing. I know complete exclusion is not good, but I ate today in the morning some real carbs, sweets and oh waw, my head is just so dizzy and I feel like crap and I want to eat even more which made me realize that this is how I felt all the time before...

So how do you just ditch the sugar and carbs without using artificial sweetners? I keep seeing all those recipes on low carb pages where you can recreate an usual dessert but I feel like it makes me want to eat more and more which defeats the purpose of low carb and any weight loss plan.. I think I need to just train my taste buds to survive without that for a while because I am really really addicted. I think about sweets, dream about them haha. At this point I think it is even more in my head. It is a bit on the excessive side and I would really want to hear from people who maybe succeeded at beating the cravings? Any coping mechanisms

Note: don’t say eat fruit or whole grains because a snickers and an apple or a bowl of oatmeal have exactly the same effect on me in terms of sugar craving triggers..

Also again before you say I should eat in moderation, I know I cant do it.. this has never worked for me unfortunately.. and I want to escape this addiction so bad, it is not even for weightloss purposes - I am even slightly my ideal weight, so it is more just - how to beat my inner monster crying give me sweets!

Thank you!
