Quoteafter speaking to my GP who advised me that Solpadiene are NOT addictive,Your GP was more than likely talking the physical sense (ie, in the same way there is no physical addiction to a bit of weed, sulphate, etc).
The mental addiction however can be quite ruling for some.
I manage a substance misuse service with 400+ people on the books, we are seeing huge numbers of people with these issues in the last few years as the amount of Codeine allowed has been increased and can be bought readily in large boxes.
In essence, in the quantities mentioned this is a large amount of opiates being consumed and would definately have a physical, and as Killerwatt said Psychological withdrawal.
You should be proud of your achievement and continued abstinence as I have seen many a life ruined and one or two fatalities due to OTC dependancy.
