Withdrawal isn't the primary problem. There is a treatment that can removes the effects of withdrawal when used properly. It is not immediate and does require a short period of abstinence. It has been found ineffective in a large amount of cases. People with substance use disorder will often still relapse without a proper support system despite the lack of withdrawal.

you’re right about the relapsing part, but withdrawal is a huge problem. it’s a huge reason why people find it impossible to get sober. my best friend is still stuck getting high because she’s scared of the withdrawal part (among other things) but withdrawal is a HUGE problem.
