Yes, (presuming it wasn't a Roth) - the amount you took out is a taxable income (you didn't pay tax on that income, or the earnings when you contributed it or it grew)...and the penalty for early withdrawal is additional. Normally, by the time your done with doing this...(and I'll bet there were many forms you were required to sign advising you of all this - and probably even saying it is considered a terrible, maybe the worst financial thing you can do)...you'll get maybe 50% of the amount in the account and lose all the needed retirement protection.
