Maybe. It could also be some sort of reaction to unconscious fears or something. You and I are alike in that we struggle to face our fears.
If it is the coffee, I recommend using decaf (at least every other drink, so you can cut down on the caffeine. Or maybe cut the coffee with decaf coffee to make the caffeine amount weaker) and sugar free creamer (there's a sugar free French Vanilla creamer that tastes quite good) and you could also use sugar free Hills Bros. Cappuccino mix (it's flavored with Splenda) The French Vanilla sugar-free creamer and cappuccino mix and creamer are something my dad uses to make some rather tastey sugar free coffee.
Alternatively, you could use the sugar free creamer with splenda and add decaf coffee into the mix, and you've got a good tasting, sugar and caffeine free coffee that cures psychological cravings while not indulging in whatever you're physically addicted to. Plus, you don't have to quit sugar and caffeine cold turkey. You could just cut down by mixing in the sugar/caffeine free alternatives with the sugary/caffeinated stuff. Tell me if that helps with your addiction. You'd be surprised how good the sugar free stuff can taste! I've tried my dad's coffee before and it tasted really good, despite being sugar free. Granted, he used that cappuccino mix, so make it like he does and it won't be decaf. But maybe you could mix in decaf coffee and only get your caffeine from the cappuccino mix and you've got a not entirely caffeine free drink that's sugar free. I'm just throwing darts here, you know. Take my ideas how you will. But I think if you experiment with decaf and/or sugar free alternatives, you can find a way to cut down on whatever your physically addicted to while still sating psychological cravings.
