Coffee in the morning.

I've had people outright claim caffeine and coffee aren't addicting. It basically ticks all the boxes, from habit-forming chemical dependency to social reinforcement. Out of addictions to have, it's one of the less harmful ones, but it absolutely can form addiction and people who can't function without it are dependent, even if they can overcome it easily.
