Do we need to drink coffee?

I sometimes wonder as to why people chose to drink coffee over other beverages. I myself just don't know how I got into drinking coffee and yearns for it every morning. If I didn't have a cup of it, I just felt that my day 'isn't it' at all. What I meant is that there is just something missing if I didn't have a taste of coffee before starting my day's work. Anyone shares the same thought or felt like this too?

I used to not drink it but now I find myself drinking a cup of coffee in the mornings and if I don't have one I seem to be sleepy and tired all through the day. I only like it in the morning or on a very cold day.

I think having a cup of coffee everyday morning is not so bad also I have read different reviews by different food experts some says that we should drink coffee and some says we should not drink but I have experienced that after eating our lunch or dinner we can have a cup of coffee which will not let your stomach feel very heavy and also it helps to digest the food as our stomach needs some warmness and coffee fulfill the warmness

I use to drink so much coffee before and there were times when I would skip lunch and drink 2 or 3 cups of coffee. I became so addicted to it that when I stop for a day I would have a very bad headache. Anyway I stop drinking coffee for few years now because I almost develop an ulcer because at that time I was drinking as if it was like drinking water. It took me many months to overcome my addiction. I still remember the good old days when my best friends and I would sit and chat and drown ourselves on coffee. We enjoy it better when it was raining and we would team it up with biscuits or cake or donuts that we bought at the canteen. I stop because of health issues.

Caffeine has an addicting quality. Maybe that's why people keep drinking it. I myself drink coffee a lot. It helps me when I think, when I'm sleepy, or when I'm just in the mood for coffee. I usually have 3 cups a day.
