It's not?

As far as I know you can get physically addicted to coke, you know once you try to stop you get all sick,sweaty and gory.

But then again i've never touched the shit so I wouldn't know for sure.


Though I do think it is addictive

Edit:

Upon visiting erowid.org I have to concur your statement:

"One of the most problematic aspects of cocaine is its addictive qualities. While cocaine is not believed to be physically addicting, it is, without a doubt, psychologically addicting. Those who use cocaine heavily or regularly frequently encounter great difficulty ceasing use."
Computer games don't affect kids. I mean, if Pac-Man had affected us as kids, we would all be running around darkened rooms, munching magic pills, and listening to repetitive electronic music.

From Wikipedia:
Drugs that cause physical dependence
* barbiturates
* benzodiazepines
* caffeine
* ethyl alcohol (alcoholic beverage)
* GHB
* methaqualone (Quaalude®)
* nicotine
* opioids
* Amphetamines

Coke is extremely addictive psychologically, but there aren't any real withdrawal symptoms or other signs of physical dependence. I can vouch that you do get cravings from time to time. I felt like getting some last weekend and that's without having touched it in about a month.
I personally recommend checking oneself for OCD at least once every 5 minutes.
