I definitely feel like caffeine can absolutely be used as a coping mechanism; if nothing else it can help you ignore the "why am I not getting enough sleep?" question, for decades if you let it. I've never really drunk coffee because it always tasted like an ashtray to me, but I've had other things that gave me an unhealthy dependence on it. I don't drink caffeine anymore and it did force me to acknowledge a lot of bad sleep habits (both physiological and self-imposed) that I was able to (mostly) solve them as a result.
