I wonder why there are some issues like caffeine addictions or coffee addictions. How is it being determined as addiction? I would say to myself that I am addicted to coffee because my day is incomplete without a cup of coffee... A cup of coffee means to me is 1 cup of coffee only in a day, no more no less. If there is an urge to drink later in a day, I can tolerate myself not to have more. Why do people drink more? What's in the coffee that people get addicted to? I know a famous person here in our country she confessed that she can drink a minimum of 8 cups a day. That's a lot of money if it is converted. How about you? Can you call yourself a coffee addict?

I am addicted to coffee. I drink about 5 cups a day - sometimes more. If I do not have any I get a mean headache.

As far as I am concerned, I think I am not a coffee addictor,who usually drink a lot of cofee now and then. For me, I just usually drink a lot of tea or some just white boiled water in my daily life,which I think can be better for my body health. Have a nice day.
