    Trust me, sugar withdrawal is nothing, and I repeat NOTHING like heroin withdrawal. It's not even close. Just stop.

    It's more like crack withdrawal, which is more psychological and sneaky.

    Good to know. I wasn't aware that headaches, body aches, sweating and trembling were just sneaky psychological symptoms. Thanks for validating my personal experience.

    You're welcome. It's nothing like heroin withdrawal. Thanks for minimizing my experience, and thousands of others.

    I was not in any way trying to minimize your experience, but that's exactly what you did to me by attacking my comment. I have no idea what heroin withdrawal feels like. I only know that my physical symptoms were similar in definition, not necessarily intensity to those I've seen others describe with heroin withdrawal. There are scientific studies that back that up. I'm in no way saying that they are exactly the same. I'm sure that heroin withdrawal is much more intense. My point was that there were actually physical withdrawal symptoms just like there are for heroin. I didn't say it was the same, just that there are similarities. I would never want to minimize anyone's personal experience. It would be nice if you could do the same. Just because your experience isn't the same as mine doesn't mean mine should be minimized. You are doing exactly what you say you don't want others to do to you. I was not trying to insult you or anyone else who has battled addiction. I am amazed by those who have battled drug addiction and am very thankful that I have never had to. I hope this is coming across the way it's intended. I know that sometimes the message gets lost in translation when typed.

    I understand, and you're right, I shouldn't have minimized your experience. I'm sorry about that. I'm super sensitive certain days of the month. Peace?

    Thank you. Of course! We're all in this struggle together. I should have just clarified my intended message in the first place instead of reacting with sarcasm. Your comment caught me off guard and I reacted instead of thinking about the fact that the written word has a huge potential for misunderstanding . For that, I apologize.

    No apology necessary. I was just being a you-know-what. ;)
