I think I hear that about coffee quite often. Coffee is probably the only thing I personally have some sort of physical addiction to. Sure, I drink alcohol regularly - at least one night a week to the point of tipsiness - but it doesn't create any bodily withdrawal symptoms if I don't get it.
However, some days I can get really slow, tired and plagued with headache without knowing why, but then I remember that I haven't had coffee yet, so I have some and it goes away.
