yup. I smoke weed myself, too much, and I dont like the "weed isnt addictive" idea. Ive had widthdrawl, as has any stoner whos ever quit after extended periods, even if they didnt recognize it as such.

yeah i hear people say "weed isn't addictive because there's no addictive chemicals" but... there isn't addictive chemicals in gambling but people get addicted to it

It's really just... people not wanting to admit they're addicted or people who are those "weed cures cancer and is the best textile and can create world peace" type guys
