What is the definition of withdrawals?

So, I'm curious about withdrawals. I seem to not suffer from them, and I am wondering how long it takes before they kick in and how long they last? I am not seeking professional advice in asking this question, just merely curious. I seem to have never suffered long term w/d.... Is that what a hangover basically consists of?

Because yes, I have had hangovers, but nothing that lasts longer than a few hours.

From what I've read here, withdrawl symptoms vary from person to person.

Mine kick in about 12 hours after my last drink and stop about 48 hours after that. I've heard it can last a lot longer than 2 days though. Waaaaay worse than any hangover though.
