Why Do People Say That Marijuana Is Addictive?
Question by Oleg: Why do people say that marijuana is addictive?
Anybody who has any common sense knows that it’s not. I find trying to cut out junk food or video games much harder than not smoking. I’ve gone months on end without smoking because of priorities but when I have free time and want to have fun then sure we light some up. Sure there are potheads but there is also fat people who eat too much fast food.

Any with any common sense at all would know better….. You completely contradicted yourself in saying that video games and junk food are more addictive than weed. ANYTHING is addictive psychologically and i know many people who are addicted and cant go more than a couple hours without smoking pot. Weed is addictive. Just not for everyone

I agree with you. There was someone here last week having horrible struggles withdrawing from their 3gm/day “marijuana addiction.” They basically told me to go to hell when I suggested that, while marijuana abuse is possible, for most people it is really more of an emotional attachment than anything, and simply could not be compared to what results from within hard drug/alcohol scenes.
People who are that adversely effected by marijuana should just avoid it, and god help them if they ever sample serious dope/alcohol!
