There’s a distinction to be made here. If I stop drinking coffee for a few days I tend to get a withdrawal headache, but that doesn’t mean I’m addicted, it means my body has developed a dependence.
Addiction is a biopsychosocial disease while dependence or tolerance is physiological. Dependence can lead to addiction, but that’s why there’s annoying restrictions on prescribing stimulants. And you have to wean shit like that off, you can’t just stop it stone cold turkey.
It is fun to shit on big pharma and medicine and they sure as shit won’t sell us cures, but stimulants work really well despite the trade offs. Same with pain medications, it’s only an addiction if you let it get to that point.
