I drink 4 to 5 milky cups of coffee a day. recently, i have noticed that if i skip coffee for one or two days i experience headache. am i addicted?

Affected yes: Same thing happened to me years ago & really demonstrates the affect of prolonged caffeine use on the blood vessels in your brain & possibly elsewhere. If you are aware now & decide to decrease your daily intake to a healthier level i wouldn't call it an addiction. If not it's more a habituation, a habit you can't break.
