If I do not drink my AM coffee,I get a headache.Am I addicted?


Question:
I drink about 3 cups each morning.

Answers:
Yes, caffeine is one of thhe most addictive substances and the typical symptom when you cut it off is headache. If you want to stop, go gradually. Think three weeks, decreasing a half a cup every few days. Then, you'll be fine. And avoid other sources of caffeine like tea or soda.

Other Answers:
sure are. I have the same problem

That means you just get off your schedule. But after about 2 days and your schedule keeps changing your addiction should break if not keep drinking that AM coffee. I drink tea and if I go without it, I get headaches. yes I think caffeine is addictive. arrgghhh. oh well.


More likely you are addicted to the caffeine. I am the same way with pop (soda). I am currently going through withdrawls so don't mess with me.


Its called caffine withdrawl

I don't know if you are addicted or just accustomed to the habit of your morning caffeine rush. My friend who owns a coffee shop has told me that when you drink coffee regularly and then stop it will cause headaches in a lot of people. Yes.
There could be other reasons for your headaches, but I'm leaning toward a caffeine addiction.
How do I know?
I'm a total bear without my coffee & cigarettes. There IS NO one or the other.gotta have both. If I don't, I'm an emotional wreck by 2:00. Strange, I know, but that's the way it is for me (though mostly when my hormones are raging). Also, I had NASTY headaches when I was pregnant - caffeine withdrawal - which is why I COULDN'T lay off it.


Yup. Me too but the caffine of choice for me is Mountain Dew. If I don't have some caffine in the AM I get a massive headache by noon-2pm. One of the effects of caffiene is that it is a vasodilator so it is possible that decreased levels in long term users could include vasospasm which if they occur in the cerebral circulation could cause massive headache. just a thought Never mond it dear, we are all addicted to certain things,
the whole life is actually nothing but addiction to an array of things.
