Unfortunately you never know how you'll react until you are in that situation yourself. Nicotine and caffeine aren't really addictive for me, but on a whim I tried some kratom capsules for back pain. After taking them daily for a week or so, I started feeling really drained after work. As a test, I took another capsule to see what would happen, and I started feeling better again. Threw away the rest of the capsules. If my physiology reacts in such a way, it means I was beginning to develop a physical addiction to it. To Kratom, of all things. It kind of opened my eyes to how quickly it can happen to people as well as how the desire to feel better and reduce suffering can easily lead us to ruin if we aren't careful and attentive.
