Hey what the hell difference does it make if nic is a physical or phychological addiction?!?!?! Its still an addiction!

The guys on here that helped me quit 105 days ago don't get into symantics on what kind of addiction we have and all the babble like that!

Just post roll and stay accountable! It fucking works! Simple as that!

So drop the analysis of nicotene.....just decide if you have the stones to quit and let these assholes on here help you!

The same can be said for all addictions. The physical addiction does not last as long as the psychological addiction. Generally the body will flush the system of any drug/chemical/etc within a matter of days and certainly within a month. The psychological addiction will remain. The psych addiction does not mean you do not have physical compulsions, you do cause that's what your head does to you. A psychological addiction is basically the same as a physical addiction - symptomatically. I think it's all bullshit. You, I, and We are addicts plane and simple. Read the information on here and jump on board!!

Go to our Welcome Center index.php?showforum=13 and read all the information there. Find your Quit Group and start posting roll every day. Keep your promise to not dip for 24 hrs. and repeat. Read this site and get involved.

It has worked for me and countless others. No magic, no silver bullet, just good ole' QUIT.
