Are Marijuana addictions real?

Actually if anything you owe them, think of all the extra time and money they would've had if they never had a kid.

 

yea i read somewhere it costs an average of like $300,000+ to raise a kid to age 18. i mean.... thats crazy

 

totally agree man, stealing is just an unspoken unbroken rule goddamnit!

 

you can get minor withdrawl symptoms but nothing more, it isnt the absolute hell that is caused by all other addictions and its relatively easy to stop from what i've experienced and from what i've read and seen

 

nah dude, fuck, don't take me too seriously there

i was just playin' around



right now i'm homesick as fuck, i miss my mom like crazy

1st year of college man, i've been away for my first month



fuck dude, i'm cryin' right now, it's all been hittin' me today
i can get over it, but ya know, it just happens

 

I think that you can get addicted mentally very easily. For me if I can't smoke one night it's kind of a bummer but I just keep going. But I do tend to spend a lot of my free cash on weed when it could be spent on other things. I guess it qualifies as an addiction for me

 

Its mentally addictive to some. For me no it wasnt really that addictive, when i stopped smoking for my gf i had plenty of chances to toke up again, with a blunt and pipe in my face i easily said no..because i had to get a job too.

Alcohol on the other hand...i drank to help with my personal problems and that turned pretty bad..i remember one day some really bad shit happened and i needed to drink so bad..my body was shaking cause i was craving alcohol so bad. This would nor has ever happened with marijuana, its simply the weakest drug, ever.

 

^^ yeah, i read you can get minor cramps or something if stop weed after a really regular use for a long time, but thats about it

 

try to stop about anything after doing it regularly for a long time, it won't be easy

 

nope, its just a made up story by mean old people to scare people into never trying pot, sad to say i see its working :S

 

well ya, i know, i'm just saying there MIGHT be a little bit of physical withdrawl too, just super minor

 

physical? I didnt experience it, its was mostly that when those around me offered , I had to remember I quit. The hardest part was remmebering.

 

I don't think there is any real addiction and I have never heard of someone with physical withdrawls from pot. It is more the obsession with the feeling of being high. you do it because you love getting high. would you smoke pot if it didn't do anything? If, tomorrow, you woke up and smoked 6 bowls and a blunt and felt nothing would you keep smoking? It's the feeling people are so obsessed with and pot is the way to get it.

 

There is NO physical addiciton.

 

i've always believed that there's no physical addiction. but giving it thought, say if one were to smoke weed from the age of 12 through to say their mid-20s and then quit, i think the body might start working in a different way.
all through their life they'd be used to getting the munchies. as soon as use ceased, i don't think they'd eat as much. weed influences the heartbeat as well - i think the heart may be affected if use stopped (in a positive or negative way, i don't know, it's just a thought).

i still don't believe it's physically addictive, these thoughts just crossed my mind when i looked into it a little more.

 

ive been completely addicted for over a year now, I smoke every day.I go through over an ounce of mids every month.

 

yeh, i used to think that about myself but broke the habit for 3 weeks with no problems with my body. yeh, sleep and eating was fucked up for about 4 days but my body quickly adjusted. since then, i smoked 4 days straight, and it's now been 4 days since my last smoke. i kind of want a spliff, but i don't NEED one.

it's all in the mind - been smokin everyday since i was 12 n im almost 19. i thought i'd suffer more than this and be thinking about it 24/7, but no - life goes on.

by the way, i thought i was addicted and had a serious problem for about 4 years. i proved myself wrong and i reckon you definitely can, seeing as you reckon you've been addicted for only a year man.

 

ya sleeping is a fuckin bitch for the first couple nights

 

Amen to that. But the feeling of "natural" tiredness (as opposed to being high and going to bed, like a sack of spuds) quickly becomes re-assuring.

 

im not addicted, but my sister in law is, she goes crazy with anxiety. and all she wants to do is puff when she hasnt for about 24 hours or so. I think its more of mental thing.
