Yes, it is also said that women are more more likely to be addicted to it then men. It's mainly the coco and sugar in Chocolate that release alkaloids when eaten and these alkaloids are addictive. Alkaloids are also linked to alcoholism so this is why Chocolate can be addictive for some. In a Spanish study some of the ingredients were found in beer and wine. Also women are more likely to be addicted than men because your craving for chocolate might be caused by a deficiency in magnesium.
