I've never been hooked on caffeine. I drink coffee maybe once a week, more in times of heavy workloads.

yes working at a real coffee shop has deffinently turned me into an addict.  I can't wake up with out at least  6 cups of coffee. Then I go to work where i drink way to many shots of espresso to be healthy.  While practicing latte art.

I don't drink coffee but I drink lots of pop and definitely have a little bit of a caffeine addiction.

if i have to go to work, i brew up a strong 12-cup carafe and pour it all into my thermos.  I am done with my thermos within 2 hours usually.

if i don't have to work, i still drink lots of coffee unless i am too hungover to get out of bed and make it

I'd say I'm addicted in the sense that if I'm presented with coffee I can't turn it down. But when it's me vs. the coffee machine one on one like half the time I wont drink it because I just don't want to bother making it.

in a word, yes. on the rare occasion i dont make coffee RIGHT away when i get up, i usually get the urge after and hour or two and make some then.
i like to put french vanilla creamer in mine.
usually do a 4- or 5-cup pot.
sometimes feel like my  stomach lining is eroding.
but coffee is delicious, and i dont see myself "quitting" any time soon.

I love coffee. I tried to give it up once, I did good for a while. But the addiction is just too much.

That's exactly why I tried giving it up. I was getting these intense headaches, which one time the pain was so bad I actually threw up.

A hell of a lot, allot of it wasn't espressos then, id have like 2 americanas, 4 espressos, then 2 cups of cafe o'lait, it was more of a constant overuse than a one time overdose, but I have hardly any these days...
