Weed def has some mild physical withdrawal, but nothing like opiates/benzos/or alcohol. It's not soul crushing ftmp.
But I consider anything needed outside of myself to function as an inconvenience, so that's pretty much life as a whole. Damned if you do damned if you don't. Gotta consume the world to experience it. I try to limit my consumption these days.
My brother is definitely addicted. He smokes to calm himself down, but is just as angry, if not more, after. He's been smoking so much for so long that he can't even imagine what it's like without it.
maybe he's angry for other reasons and the weed is a coping mchanism, like all addictions that people have in a toxic system
The only point of saying weed is not addictive is to say you can quit with no negative repurcussions.
Now, if you become dependant on it for one reason or another, that's addiction.
Because it helps me focus during tasks and let's me vibe when I need to relax.
Hey!!! Listen here you... I've been smoking weed since 1998 and I can stop anytime I want!
I smoke weed every day to keep my mind calm. It helps with the anxiety.
You at the demonstrabely false claims competitions:
Jokes aside, I can smoke once a day, once a week or once a month, it doesn't change much, it'd not like your beloved alcohol
I mean, everybody has a vice, for me it's my phone and social media, I habitually check it every 5 or so minutes, it is an addiction but at least it isn't physically damaging like cigarettes
I acknowledge I'm addicted. I smoke every day, but it doesn't have any negative effects on my life. I guess I'm a "productive stoner type" and the same can't be said for everyone but in general I think it makes my life better.
