Is addiction a physical dependence?
Addiction can involve both physical dependence (where the body has adapted to the presence of a substance and experiences withdrawal symptoms without it) and psychological dependence (a strong desire to use a substance despite negative consequences).
Is there two types of addiction psychological and physical?
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.
