Yes, those are both types of addiction. Physical addiction is when the body gets used to the drug and you have to have it for the body to function normally. That is why alcoholics have to go to detox centers. But they still have a psychological dependence, and if they stop treatment at that point, they will likely start using again and get the physical dependence back. So they then have to treat the psychological urges to use the substance and the underlying causes.

Drugs that have the features of tolerance and withdrawal are considered?
They are considered to be physically addictive (as opposed to chemically addictive or psychologically addictive).Note that drugs that are physically addictive (alcohol and opiates) are also extremely chemically and psychologically addictive as well. But physical addiction trumps those two. Physical addiction means you get violently ill, and can even die, if you suddenly stop taking the drug. That is not true of chemical and psychological addiction.

There aren't really any. It's not like a heroin addiction, if you choose to stop - that's it. You may be a bit nervous for a day or two, and posibly slightly depressed from wanting to smoke, but it's all psychological, not physical.
What is the difference between a physiological addiction and a biological addiction?
Physiological dependence = result of constant use of a drug to the point whereby the body's normal state is the drugged state, i.e. the drug is needed in order to feel normal. Physiological dependence develops with the gradual increase in the body's tolerance to the drug. Tolerance means that more and more of the drug is needed to get the desired effect. Without this increase, the drug user can actually suffer from withdrawal symptoms. Physiological dependence called chemical dependence.Psychological dependence = a drug user's tendency to change his life because of the drug and to centre his/her activities around the drug (acquiring it, using it, experiencing it).

What is addictive in alcohol?
Addiction to alcohol is two-fold. There is a psychological and physical addiction. Physical addiction to alcohol may not manifest itself in every person addicted to alcohol. This usually takes years of continuous abuse of alcohol that over time actually changes cellular function in your body. The prolonged abuse of alcohol can cause cellular function to become dependent on alcohol being present in the system in order for them to work correctly. The sudden removal of alcohol can cause these cells to work improperly or shut down altogether. Symptoms of alcohol withdrawal can range from physical tremors all the way to coma and death. The other cause of alcohol addiction is the less understood psychological factors. There are 7 behaviors that make up psychological addiction with only 3 being present for a designated period of time to classify as alcohol addicted. These are tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, problems with family, work, social or legally; the inability to control how much or how long you drink, continual attempts at quitting or slowing down that ultimately end in failure, increasing amount of time trying to drink or recover from its affects, and continual drinking even when the person is aware that their lives are suffering because of it.

What are the two types of addictions?
This question is worded poorly, but the answer is this:1. Physical Addiction is when a drug user suffers physical effects when deprived of the drug. This is recognized as withdrawal. An example would be when a person who has been taking opiates daily and then ceases their intake, they will experience tremors, nausea, runny nose, watering eyes, decreased appetite, diarrhea, increased urination, hyper-sensitivity to pain, weak muscular function and hot/cold flashes.2. Psychological Addiction boils down to metal effects of ceasing drug use. A drug user does not have to be a regular user or someone who goes through physical withdrawal to experience psychological effects when deprived of a drug. The feelings associated with this addiction can range from person to person. Some common effects are intense cravings for a particular drug, hyperactivity, laziness, mild to severe depression, anxiety, fatigue, foggy thinking and constant changing of mood (feeling happy one minute, then extremely sad the next).All this being said, I've been addicted to oxycodone for 2 years and have experienced all these effects of addiction. They are awful, but my addiction (and many other peoples) continues to cause me to rationalize and continue my drug use, mostly because I continue to use oxycodone to avoid these withdrawal effects instead of detoxing and quitting. I wouldn't wish it on anybody.
Can Regular use of alcohol can lead to addiction?

What are two types of tobacco addictions?
Being an ex smoker myself, being addicted to the nicotine is one and then a person gets addicted to what I call (busy hand and finger syndrome) which is the actual performing of; taking the cigarette out of the pack, lighting it, arm up and down movement, taping off the ashes, putting cigarette out. All these things become a terrible habit. Addition: These characterize the two types of addiction: physical and psychological. Nicotine is an addictive substance. Your central nervous system has receptors that respond to it and when it is withdrawn for a certain period of time, they tell the brain to get more. "Cravings"... this is part of the addiction, but perhaps the hardest to break is the psychological. All of these descriptions of what the user did while smoking. The habit. It becomes ritualistic and ingrained in our psyche that it becomes part of a routine that is even harder to break, many times, than the physical addiction. Our brain creates neural networking where the brain cells connect with each other and relate certain activities for instance, smoking a cigarette while drinking coffee... MANY people get so used to this particular combination that drinking coffee may actually trigger cravings for a cigarette-- or after eating-- while stressed. There are many activities that our brains our hard-wired (our neurons and neural nets) actually come to expect these things. In this case, it both the stimulation of nicotonic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system by the nicotine itself (physical addiction) AND the habits and rituals that accompany, trigger, or precede smoking or consuming nicotine which are built over time by connections in our brain itself (psychological).
