I'm not addicted (I think), but I drink coffee a lot of coffee... 3-4 (even 5) cups a day...
The morning start for me with a glass of water, and a cup of coffee :) I have no headache or migraine if I don't drink coffee, but to be honest...I like to drink, and in this time (around 10-15 minutes) I check my daily "to do list" :)
In 2021 I started to drink just and only presso coffee (espresso), I drank before many types , like instant coffee, filter coffee, turkish coffe, presso, etc...
I drink just small / short coffe (around 25-30 ml / cup), and without anything (sugar and milk)... My vision about coffe is, that the good cooffee is which you drink in 10 minutes, but you can feel it in your mouth for an hour.
It's if/when you stopped drinking it you would find out whether you have an addiction - or a dependency. Do you think there's a difference between an addiction or a dependency? Is it basically the same? I like to think there is, so I don't have to face up to that I might have been addicted to caffeine 🙈😂 Perhaps I'm just kidding myself.

I'm sure the addiction and the dependence is not the same. I stopped to drink coffee for around 6 months in 2021 (when I restarted, I started to drink just espresso), but I did not feel secondary effects. So...in my opinion the addiction is when you like / love something, and the dependence is when you can't live without this thing :)
