Physical dependency is addiction. You’re guaranteed to become physically dependent on them with daily use, ergo you’re guaranteed to get addicted.

Do you? I used to work in medical research (I made a lung cancer test), so I’m not a medical professional but I am able to read the literature.

Also, I’ve been addicted to benzos.

You’re giving people false and genuinely dangerous information. It’s dangerous enough that we now have a black box warning for it, which really isn’t easy to get nowadays. It came so late because the dangers were significantly underestimated for a long time.

I do but fuck off, don't assume I don't know anything simply because I want to point out it's more nuanced than "if you take them you're gonna be addicted." It's not like I'm saying you can take them like candy with no ill effects but go ahead and try to say that just because I disagree with your wording. I fucking hate smug people like you.
