Am I an Addict?

Okay, this might seem silly to some of you, but I'm worried that I have a very strong PHYSICAL addiction to caffeine. I went two days without drinking any coffee, soda, etc. (I had a cold) and woke up yesterday with a MASSIVE headache and I got dizzy every time I stood up for more than like five minutes. I figured I just had gotten worse, possibly an ear infection or something. However, this morning my friend insisted that I drink a cup of coffee to see if it made me feel better. AND IT DID. I'm not dizzy anymore. Sure I still have my cold, but the dizziness and headache are gone.

How much caffeine do you actually have to consume to become an addict? This was REALLY scary for me, as I knew I drink a lot of caffeine, but I didn't think I was that bad!
