Definitely, everything in moderation:

"Caffeine. Studies have found an association between moderate consumption of caffeinated beverages and a lower incidence of suicide, indicating that coffee or tea might help reduce depression. One study supported the findings for a lower risk for suicide with moderate coffee intake but reported a higher risk for suicide with high coffee consumption. In such cases, coffee may not be the cause of the higher risk; women who drink such large amounts of coffee may be self medicating their depression. Heavy coffee use may also coincide with a higher risk for abuse of other substances, such as alcohol or cigarettes, which may increase the risk for suicide."
