For all y'all haters out there, I give you this recent CNN article (thanks, em). I also found it on the CNN website, under the link "Caffeine Withdrawal Is Real".
Excerpts (my favorite parts):
[A researcher] said some people complain of "headache, fatigue, sleepiness, inability to focus and concentrate." Others report experiencing flu- like symptoms, irritability, depression and anxiety after skipping as little as one cup of coffee a day.
Tell me about it.
[He also] recommended that people who are motivated to give up caffeine, or cut back on consumption, do so very carefully. "The thing to do is what we do with so many drugs -- basically you wean yourself off slowly," Kuhar suggested. "That doesn't mean it is going to be easy at every step, but it should be easier than going cold turkey."
...oops.
