Yeah, back when I drank a lot of coffee, one cup would make me feel calmer, while going too far and drinking like 3-4 cups (which I did do once to see what it was like) makes me feel like shit, have a headache, be unable to sleep well, etc.

After stopping, even one cup makes me jittery and I no longer feel like I need to drink coffee to feel awake.

Caffeine dependence is terrible and widespread.

There are plenty of reasons to not want to be dependent on caffeine, but I wouldn't put its dependence in the terrible category.
