yesman, I think that you're the exception rather than the rule. I agree, there's too much "feeling" going on instead of action. But whatever chemical your brain produces that lets you put down a physically addictive substance without even looking back....damn. You need to bottle that stuff, you'd make a fortune.

My mom is the same as you. She can't even fathom why anyone would want to put anything in their body that makes them that sick. There would be no way to explain the need to her, because her brain doesn't work that way. You two are lucky.

For people on the other end of the spectrum, they can no more stop using than they can hold their breath for 30 minutes. If they try, the pressure just builds and builds until they can't take it anymore. I think there's evidence that it's physiological as much as psychological, but I don't have any idea where to get proof of it.
