Its a weird mental addiction.  No physical withdrawls, you just think about it.



thats pretty much how i see it. I was thinking maybe i was being ignorant though




that is ignorant.

nicotine is VERY addictive.



No offense dude but nicotine is a weak substance. Maybe druggies just have a better time with it. :shrug:





and mushrooms are a weak substance compared to LSD

micrograms compared to milligrams?

:lolsy: what comparison are you actually trying to make?

calling something "a weak substance" actually provided me almost no information about what you were actually trying to say.

try again buddy

As I remember, there is truly nothing like a cup of coffee, a cigarette and a nice warm nod.

they dont get addicted because it feels good.

else we would all be addicted to sex.


addiction has already been figured out.
and the intensity of emotions felt on the drug do not correlate to the addictiveness of said drug.

else we would all be addicted to DMT


keep diggin that hole. youre almost up to your neck.

Irritability is the withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Ive heard people say nicotine is more mentally addicting than any other drug

Nicotine. Although studies vary, it is generally believed that over 30% of those individuals who use nicotine for a period of time become addicted.



Quote:

Caffeine. Perhaps another shocker for some, Caffeine ranks high on the list, with almost 30% of casual users becoming addicted.



Quote:

Heroin. Now, an illegal drug makes its first appearance on the list. Although one-hundred years ago Heroin was used for a variety of medicinal purposes, the medical community soon realized that people were becoming addicted in record numbers. The drug was taken off of the market, but illicit use remains rampant to this day – destroying lives of those from all walks of life, all over the world. 25% of those who use Heroin for a period of time become addicted to the drug.



Quote:

Alcohol. The legalized drug with potentially devastating consequences, alcohol reduces the ability of your brain to function properly. Addictive for 15% of those who use it regularly, alcohol is especially problematic for young people, where binge drinking and dangerous alcohol-related activities are prevalent.







you guys have access to the same internet that i do.

why are you making up things?

go look it up for yourself.

What withdrawal?  You mean the few hours after you quit where you're like, "man I could really go for a cig".  'Cause I never got the shakes, hot and cold sweats, flu like symptoms reflective of real noticeable withdrawals of hard drugs.

If you're gonna complain about cigarette withdrawals, seriously man up.

I've never experienced any kind of physical withdrawal from quitting tobacco.  The psychological craving to light up after quitting, though, is a bitch and a half.  I've resorted to fishing packs out of the garbage that I've thrown away when I've tried to quit in the past.  :nonono:

Now I've switched to an e-cigarette so at least I'm doing my lungs and my wallet a favor.  Wouldn't say it's harder to quit than opiates, though--needing your fix because you'll get actually physically sick without it is a far cry from just really, really wanting a drag of nicotine.

the withdrawals are vastly different.

the addiction uses the same mechanisms.

thats your argument? I can't even regard those statistics with sincerity.

I'll assume that more people get 'addicted' to caffeine and nictone because:
1) you can get either ANYWHERE
2) they are cheaper by a longshot
3) socially acceptable
