Depending on what kind of drugs I would say Drugs first and closely following Alcohol. Both of these addiction change the chemistry in your brain and can give permanent damage.

definitely eating disorders are the worst kind of addiction, because to overcome it you have to learn to live in balance with food. you can't just give it up completely like alcohol or other drugs, but are confronted by it several times a day. it may not have the initial chemical withdrawal effects of other substances, but the psychological addiction is just as strong.

its difficult to measure addiction. as addiction itself goes through stages. anything that you feel the need for without having any control physical or mental, its a bad addiction. the less control you have the worst the addiction it is. there are some substance that physically when taking them, your body and brain gradually require more and more untill you reach stage where even a very high dosage doesn't give the same satisfaction. the worset type would be the one that cause more damage to your life from all aspects, physical, emotional, social etc.

heroin
withdrawal symptoms can be life-threatening, as the body builds up a reliance on it. it has the worst affect on the body of most mainstream drugs too. and why are some people simply putting 'drugs'? do people think all drugs have the same effect, or that all drugs are addictive?

Both are equally bad. Cigarette burns out your lungs, can lead to different kind of cancers and impair functioning of the heart, reduce stamina and vitality. This is progressive and over time the lungs seem clogged and breathing becomes difficult. Alcohol can bring some personality disorders to the person. Once the person is addicted, the amount of alcohol intake progressively increases because the body becomes reststant to small amounts of alcohol. It will decrease stamina, Kill appetite which can lead to a number of health problems.

Its the degree of the addiction, even food can be an addiction they are all bad habits and can only be overcome by changing thinking. changing beliefs about yourself. Power is in the mind. Love is the best cure for addiction. God,s love is most powerful.

I have to agree with the first answerer. I am so addicted to Yahoo! Answers and i just have to pop in every day to answer questions. I dont know about the list you just gave me there. I think every addiction is bad because the habit can be difficult to be kicked off. No matter what kind of addiction you have, it can destroy your life.
