What is a physical addiction?
A physical addiction occurs as a chemical interferes with the balance of the brain's chemistry. In a natural state, the pleasure center of our brains are stimulated by naturally occurring opiates within the body. The result of the stimulation is a sense of physical and psychological pleasure produced by the brain. Drugs, however, push aside the natural opiates and stimulate the pleasure center, at a more intense rate than natural opiates. The brain stops producing the natural opiates, and anticipates the outside drug, this starts a physical obligation by the user to provide a drug of choice. A physical addiction can end in seven days without taking the drug before your body restarts producing the natural opiates, but a psychological addiction lasts a lifetime.
