Why is withdrawing from an addictive drug is not simply a matter of willpower?

Describe and explain the features of a drug molecule that could lead to the drug being addictive.?
A drug molecule that is lipophilic (capable of easily crossing the blood-brain barrier) and activates the brain's reward system by stimulating the release of dopamine is more likely to be addictive. If the drug rapidly enters the bloodstream and has a short duration of action, it may also increase the likelihood of addiction by causing intense and immediate reinforcement of drug-taking behavior. Additionally, if the drug induces tolerance or physical dependence, it can lead to addictive behavior as the individual requires higher doses to achieve the same effects and experiences withdrawal symptoms upon cessation of the drug.
What happens to someone who stops drugs when they are addicted to them?
This is a tough answer. The first thing to consider would be whether the drug are physically addictive or psychologically addictive. If they are only psychologically addictive, they will most commonly experience agitation and "fiending" (longing for the drugs). If it's physically addictive, the user may experience a wide range of things. Opiates are the most used physically addictive drugs, and many who quit cold turkey get cold sweats, fevers, body aches and other flu-like symptoms. It can actually be quite danergous to suddenly stop doing physically addictive drugs after heavy use.
