I can definately see the physical aspect of an addiction as being important.
My brother has attempted to quit cigarettes a number of times. He hits the worst place and goes back to smoking when he starts coughing up the black gunk from his lungs and gets a back stomach ache. If he could get past those symptoms he wouldn't have so much trouble quitting. He wants to quit except it literally hurts to do so. Granted the desire has to be strong enough to overcome the physical hurt but it's still a battle against the physical body as well as a battle in the mind.
