Sure no hard physical withdrawal, but its so available and inside your life's habits that its so easy to fall again. Heroin is not socially acceptable and availability requires going to certain places to buy it.
It is not that tobacco is more addictive, It is the circunstances.
Word.
The common meme is that tobacco is more addictive than heroin or cocaine. In my experience it is not, the availability makes it very difficult to quit, not to mention you get triggered every time you go outside for a walk, because that's where the smokers are.
If I could buy an 8 ball at 7-11 and my coworkers were doing blow on break out in front of the office, they'd be comparable.
In terms of the grip the physical addiction has on you, it's not comparable, not from my perspective.
