is diet coke bad?

I heard that the regular coke is bad so I started drinking diet coke. However, my friends said that diet coke do more harm than coke in the long run. Are they correct?  Will I gain weight from drinking diet coke?

Diet sodas are not any better for you than regular sodas.  Regular soda is full of sugar, which is bad for you.  Diet sodas have artificial sweeteners which can make you crave sugar, even more.  

I can't say you'll gain weight just from drinking the diet soda, but if makes you crave sweet or fatty foods, you might likely gain.
