Addicted to marijuana

Dependance is almost directly related to how often you smoke weed, I find if you smoke 1 high quality bowl of weed a day (at night so your not tempted to get high again on the burn out) comes with nearly no reperucussions and plenty of benefits. But it is just a tasty and enjoyable thing...it's easy to lean dependance on it but if your 100% healthy otherwise then don;t be so...dependant and go have a snack if your feelings hungry or faint... I've depended on weed far to much in the past half decade and i'm putting it closer to other drugs from now on, just less often and to enjoy it more.

marijuana DOES have a withdrawl cycle if your smoking it every day several times a day but it's basically only as hard as burning out... might last 24-36 hours if your THAT heavy of a user and a week or two before your entirely "unstoned" but you just feel better with some weed if you smoke it that often. it's a quick spike and it's not painful by any means, you just act a bit grumpy ad refuse normal things because your being a baby and want some more pot :p sorry for the analogy, I don't know anyones life story but marijuana withdrawls are a joke and *barely* exist compared to this or that out there.

excersize kicks the stoning right out of me, active in the day, stoned up at night.

One things that smoking this much weed has done is give me some sticky lungs, it's harder to breathe than I imagine it should be, therefore I am self impossing limitations based on my own discresion
 
i started smoke when i was in year 7 had a joint then in yr 10 i started buying smoking like 2 grams a month then at the end of year 10 i left TAFE and started smoke at tafe before i left for tafe at lunch after tafe this turned into a every day thing so i failed tafe and left for a full time job so i had heaps of cash ended up getiin a pritty bad habit smoking about 2-4 grams a day then when i quit my job i had the worst habit n couldent afford it began selling when the weed dryed up i couldent sleep without sleeping pills became paranid n anxoius n restless.so i tryed to make my self slow down i only smoke like half a gram maybe a bit more a day.but when i dont smoke im a cunt

I got into the drug because of people telling me its not bad for me, its 'non addictive.' Well for all of you who say that, try smoking hardcore for a month and then quitting. For some reason i cant sleep, im not hungry, and im restless... Anyone else with a similar story?

Please dont flame/troll this. thats unappreciated and unhelpful.

DUDE, thats how i feel. everybody says its not addictive but i cant go 3 days without a bowls worth at least. i tried quitting once but after the 2nd week i cudnt do it. i bought a quarter of DANKS and smoked it all with my childhood friend (who now is 18 years old) . i smoked so much i didnt know what was happening and i threw up infront of his appartment building.
my addvice is to never stop smoking weed but to cut down on the smoking when u get a job and/or family. If u stop smoking "cold-turkey" then u might have a craving for to much like i did. And then ur money will get wasted all in one day.
 
i am definitely addicted to weed. i know that for sure. people always say, "you cant get addicted to weed. its a plant, not a drug!" well, yes you can. and it is a plant, yes. but it is also a drug. there are actually more and more people going to rehab these days for marijuana addiction. i feel like i NEED weed. i have to have it, i must always have a supply on me. i always have to buy more before i'm about to run out of what i do have. when you quit smoking, you do go through withdrawal. i haven't done a lot of research on it, but from what ive read, the withdrawal symptoms shouldn't last that long.
 
It's not a physical addiction, its purely mental imo, i've smoked pot for 25 years and I can take it or leave it, only takes a few days for any mental craving to tail off even if I have had a huge few weeks smoking everyday, when i run out i run out, no worries, time to get on with life.

compared to opium or coke addiction pot is nothing.

in my humble opinion.
 
Because everyone is comparing drugs in this thread already, I'll go ahead and say it:

Morphine along with most other opiates is a CAKE WALK compared to quitting weed.

IMHO

Mentally addictive like MDMA, you feel you need it. I've felt like I was addicted to MDMA, but being addicted to opiates (and now starting on my benzos) has completely changed how I feel on the matter.

I feel it's something that you could easily overcome, you just don't have a real reason why you want to.

This exactly, if you really want to stop, be mature enough to stop and deal with a night or two of being restless and maybe not hungry . Otherwise smoke in moderation it's not hard .

Anyone that has kick opiates, benzos, or alcohol knows that pot is not physically addictive.

Guess you didn't read my earlier post.
You sure know all about cannabis withdrawals! :|
Maybe it is better to keep your eyes closed, and live in your imagined world instead of confronting reality.
 
tbh lads, I was very suprised with a lot of the posts in this thread.

When I saw the thread title, "Addicted to Marijuana" I must say the first thing that went through my head was, "This guy is going to get a bating".

I have been shmokin' for over 8 years now since I was 14, sometimes daily over a period of more than a year and then also sometimes with breaks of over 9 months.

The only think addictive about marijuana for me and everyone that I know is the routine and the mental comfort which being high gives them.


If I do anything which I like a lot ie. go on youtube, drink tea, get drunk, shmoke, play computer games, Eat Chocolate, have sex(I wish I did this more) ANYTHING
Then if I were to stop doing one of those things I would miss it, heck I would often reminise about a lovely cup of tea if I were to give it up. And why shouldn't I think about the things and miss what I used to enjoy, everyone would.

Giving up being stoned is just like giving up anything you like, but everyone has different resistance levels.

Get Real lads, if anyone has a hard time coming off marijuana then it is 100% to do with their own personality rather than the actual drug.

"Addicted to Marijuana"??? "Addicted to the Internet"(ye, apparently this is the new "in" thing), "Addicted to Fish Fingers", "Addicted to the Toast + Peanut butter"(that's good sh*te)


I don't mean to overly ridicule the topic, because I know some people do have addictive personalities, Marijuana for me is no more addictive than any of the things that I've mentioned here.

P.S.
I have read the post referring to physical addiction, but am not buying it at all

P.S.^2
Captain.H. I'm a bit of a lurker + think you are the bomb

Just smoked for about 3 months without a break and this is my second day off weed and i feel fine, have money to buy more but just going to wait a few more days i smoke for a few months then have 3 or 4 days off and its really not a problem at all, i think you guys are making it more of a problem than it is

Spot on
 
I find it funny that all these people say "I've smoked for 8, 10, or 25 years and I don't think it's addictive, I've quit many times." Classic!
 
Sorry but if you cant stop smoking after just 1 month then dont even consider taking ANY other drug or you really will be screwed. I was a long term smoker and where as it is mentally addictive it is in no way pysically addicitve so the only reason you feel odd after a period of not smoking is because you dont really want to stop and have formed a non addictive habbit.

XD

What they're saying is that they've been smoking for whatever amount of time and can give up whenever they like.

I've been eating chocolate for that period of time too, personally I'd find chocolate harder to give up :D
 
i have been smoking since i was 14 first time i smoked i was 13 but ive been smoking at least a few times a week mostly every day with a few dry spots in between since i was 14 and now im almost 17 ive been addicted but its all in my head ive been smoking cigarettes since i was 13 that is a real addiction compared to my weed and im sure opiates are even worse the weed addiction is all psychological and you can change it easy maybe just me cuz i can fulfill a addiction with cigarettes so i dont think of weed when i dont have any lol dam

qft

i thought i was kind of dependant on pot until i had opiate withdrawals. really puts things into perspective.
 
I have smoked mostly every day for the passed three years and when I have taken breaks I have noticed no major differences in my mood or body or feeling in general, just have things to do other than just smoke weed 24 hours a day.
