I've quit them. Much easier to quit than reefer.

Gunna take the words of scientists over drug addicts thanks.


how can you get upset about anyone posting stuff about weed because it's "spam" and has been posted too many times... and then post something like this?

Only blind potheads think it's not addictive anyway. The medical dangers of marijuana are plenty and have been known for awhile but people continue to insist it's a perfect drug that has no ill effects.


it is addictive, the same way anything else in life is addictive.... people get addicted to video games, to soda-pop.... being addictive doesn't make something bad....

people know there are health risks to weed, there are health risks to microwaving plastics for hell's sake... the main argument for marijuana is that the possible health benefits for some people far outweigh the risks....

No it is not addictive the same as soda or video games, its a physical addiction.

because in one study it caused very generalized withdrawal symptoms? my mom gets headaches and gets a bit irritable without her Coke (pun totally intended) so soda (or the caffeine) does cause an addiction as defined by this article....

the other points they make, that it is hard to quit and all that can easily be linked to the examples given earlier... this study tried to do something but did NOT set it up well... marijuana is addictive, but not nearly as addictive as most anti-pot people think... however it probably is more addictive than most pro-pot people think....

Doritos are dirt.

I usually cook actual food when I'm stoned, I really enjoy cooking.

I also work an important job and go to school, like I said.

I don't have time to do nothing all day. (Sometimes on the weekends)

I'm a hardworking, intelligent, contributing member of society.

and I like marijuana


So instead of being a functional alcoholic, you're a functional stoner. You're still an addict.

Dont actually need to look up any studies about this cause I actually know alot of people that have used Marijuana for 40+ years and every single one of them is highly addicted.

They might be able to go a day without it , but they are the worse people to deal with when they are dry.

Most of them spemd 500-2000$ a month on their "habit" and need to smoke 15-25 joints a day.

Oxy is worse . but weed is pretty bad, prob as bad as Alchol in that respect.
