Being a little disingenuous here aren't you? Notice the part in red.
It says "often" not that it does not. Then you see the list of physical symptoms and then you say it is sad?
Often does not mean never, and I NEVER said it did. Often does not mean Occasionally either. It means somethig very similar to Usually or Typically, which are the words I used. YOU are being disingenuous by claiming they are similar because OFTEN there are no physical symptoms. With herion withdrawal there are ALWAYS physical symptoms. ALWAYS.
You again seem to be mistaking "often" for never. I said I think they are the same, and they are. They have exactly the same synptoms for some.
They do not have the exact same symptoms at all. You are giving an opinion that is not substantiated by fact. TYhey OCCASIONALLY have the same symptoms, but OFTEN they
DON'T.
I already stated it is different for different people. You also seem to be ignoring that.
If one ALWAYS has physical symptoms, and the other OFTEN doesn't, the comparison should be the AVERAGE case, not the Extremes.
No you posted two from the same source.

They also include vomiting and other "physical" symptoms.
Cocaine: Withdrawal | Drug Abuse and Effects Summary
"
Because of the lack of physical withdrawal symptoms, both medical professionals and the public long believed that cocaine was not an addicting drug. The cocaine epidemic of the 1980s led to greater concern about how cocaine affects users. Researchers studied the drug to determine whether cocaine use leads to dependence and withdrawal."
Cocaine withdrawal and crack addiction withdrawal symptoms
"Cocaine withdrawal is
not as physically evident as withdrawal from other highly addictive drugs:
there are often no visible physical symptoms like the vomiting and shaking that accompanies heroin withdrawal or the seizures and delusions that can follow alcohol withdrawal"
Cocaine Withdrawal
"
Cocaine withdrawal often has no visible physical symptoms such as the vomiting and shaking that one sees during the withdrawal from heroin or alcohol."
Cocaine Withdrawal Symptoms Less Daunting Than Previously Thought
"Withdrawal from cocaine is no picnic, but a study by a researcher at the University at Buffalo has shown that it may not involve the wrenching ups and downs and intense cravings that specialists in the field have considered the norm."
That last one was tossed in to give scientific evidence of my claims that Heroin withdrawal is worse.
Can you find ANYTHING at all that claims that it is COMMON for cocaine withdrawal to be similar to heroin withdrawal?
Would you like more sources? I can do this all day.
I have already pointed out with the data you are indeed wrong.
No, you haven't. You have shown that there are SOME symptoms that OCCASIONALLY happen that are similar, but you have not shown that the two withdrawals are similar ON AVERAGE. You are comapring the extreme case of cocaine withdrawal to the COMMON case of heroin withdrawal. That is intellectually dishonest. Compare the cases that OFTEN happen in each withdrawal to each other and you will be on the right track.
I never said that cocaine withdrawal couldn't be just as bad for one individual than heroin withdrawal is for another individual. I used the word "Typically" when I said it typically doesn't have physical symptoms. It OFTEN doesn't have any physical symptoms.
You would have known the difference between the two is only in the way you take it.
What you injest is different. This is BECAUSE of the way you take it. Just as Chewing Tobacco and Smoking toibacco are different drugs in teh end because they have different effects. Cigarrettes are way way worse for a person.
Now you are just ignoring what I said.
Nice link by the way. "Cookie absent."
Methylecgonidine is produced during the actual heating process. If you were to crush the rock and snort it, no Methylecgonidine could be found for drug testing. The high would take a hell of a lot longer to hit, but it would.
The DRUG is what is injested, not what remains outside of the body. If a person crushes up a crack rock and snorts it, they are doing cocaine. If they smoke it, they are doing crack.
Just as with ALL chemical reactions, chemicals are produces. Just as smoking tobacco is injecting a different drug as chewing it is. What is injested is the issue, not what is purchased.
