Are pheromones physically addictive?

[Nick666]

I

have been reading the forums for a few days, and it seems that some of these mones can give a feeling of "well

being" -(correct me if I`m wrong) -and it`s something else than placebo effect.

I presume that mones can give

some sort of psychological addiction, but my question is can they give a physicall addiction?

[Nick666]

Well... considering that mones

are natural products of our own bodies, the logical answer is they can`t be physically addictive, but I still wanna

hear some opinions.

I've used 'mones for 3 years

and don't get the "buzz," even with OD levels. Perhaps some experiencing a placebo effect. Sometimes I feel "high"

before a date with a hot chick or a performance because of the anticipation of the thrill. No 'mones needed for

that...

I don't agree on that. One can become psychologically addicted to

anything that is capable of changing emotions / mood / state. There is no rule that says psychological addiction is

not possible just because the substance is natural.

However with the pheromones that we currently have available

this does not seem to be a problem, because habituation effects are so strong that's you would quickly come to a

point that you can't physically increase dosage any more - and that's OD land on others (negative social

reactions) already.

what happens when you

don't wear them? Nothing. To be addicted to something there has to be a withdrawal. There's no withdrawal of

any sort when you don't wear mones.

It's (only) a psychological

addiction... a bit like "I'm wearing my lucky red shirt, all the girls talk to me when i wear it" type of

thing.
But to be honest, I don't know about you but i like it when people take an interest in me , sexual or not.

I'm often not the most outgoing person but the 'mones can help me come out my man cave at times. Hell, if woman

can have fake boobs and nails I'm allowed some extra 'mones!
just my take on it...

I do think there is some potential for

psychological addiction to pheromone use....maybe addiction is a strong word, but I would say that over-dependence

to pheromones can become a problem...especially if we start attributing anything positive that happens to us

socially/sexually to pheromones. The act of wearing pheromones themselves makes a person feel more confident than

one normally would. I think that someone can very easily build a dependence on just the act of wearing the mones,

and not even the effects themselves.

Just to keep things in perspective, I really recommend that people go for a

about two weeks without the pheromones on, just so one can realize how much of the positive 'hits' are a product

of ourselves and our actions, and not simply a matter of mones. I think most people, especially after extended use,

will be pleasantly suprised.

I do not think there is any risk of physical addiction however.

no physical addiction... just don't

get mentally dependent on them!

I am psychologically addicted to

them. I have not seen results really, and yet, I have spent more money on these things than anything. Not out of

hope, I have game and I am good looking. I am just addicted to running to the mailbox to get the new toys, and play

with mixes. I enjoy mixing them for the planned situation. I keep a roll on with me of my own mixture. I am too

oblivious to even notice if it is working, but it sure is fun to play with. So is it addicting? Yes. But physically?

No. If I forget to put them on I do not withdraw or even care. I just like playing with them.

I do have an

addicting personality. Heck, I get addicted to anything I like. Don't get me started on masterbation. I can have

sex with a girl and still go home and do it becuase it is my habbit. Thats why I can't try coke or anyhting.
