Do you think its possible to be addicted to marijuana?!

Question: Do you think its possible to be addicted to marijuana?

Let me say I've done many different drugs in my short lifetime but I've never really got addicted to any. I was able to quit them all except for marijuana. I always was the type of person saying marijuana is not addictive or its not a gateway drug but sometimes I think otherwise. Then I go back and think no its not and I consider myself stupid for even thinking it can be addicting. I haven't used since october (marijuana and ecstasy) well I did get prescribed lortab for wisdom teeth. I basically had no pain from surgery and chewed them all up in a day or two. Well a few days after surgery. I don't think I'm an addict though since I'm not doing meth or heroin and I've been clean since after the lortab in like november. Do you think I'm an addict? Or is this just nothing to worry about?

Answers:

Ill tell you what, you might not get addicted to weed, but you will become dependent on it. As far as I know, marijuana doesnt contain any addictive substances, but I got "Dependently addicted" to weed. Now ive never done meth, heroin, ecstasy, or any of the real crazy ****, but I was to the point where if I wasnt getting high, or on a mission for some weed, than I was bored out of my mind. I did this every day for a couple years, and then, found a girl who was worth more to me than weed, and was over it. I still get high at school and outside every now and then, but I realized weed is a fall-back drug. Do it when you have nothing else going on. Your probably just in a rut, find a hobby. Or a girlfriend.

It's addictive & if you are having problems quitting, seek help.
Marijuana is a drug afterall.
Just like alcohol is a drug & highly addictive, it's best to avoid drugs in the first place.

there are no chemicals to make you addicted if your using pure marijuana, all other drugs are chemical compounds made, and most of these chemicals can make you addicted, but marijuana doesn't have chemicals, making it impossible for you to be addicted, but your brain still wants it.

As it has been mentioned before, it (Cannabis Indica) does not contain any addictive substances/chemicals, the hang up will be psychological only, no physical addiction!

I guess like cigarettes, Marijuana can become addictive too. My boyfriend used to smoke it..And he said it was very hard to quit.

Yes it can be addictive. I smoked it for 25 yrs and if i could not get it would get depressed and disappointed. I developed an emotional dependence on marijuana.

There is another reason to quit using marijuana. The turmoil in Mexico between the drug cartels has killed many people. When you buy marijuana you are contributing to the existence of ruthless criminals. So before you smoke another joint think about what is happening in Mexico.

When I was scolded by my doctor about smoking marijuana I quit. Also at that time I did not want to support criminals. The demand for illegal drugs is what is responsible for the tragic deaths of innocent men, women and children in Mexico.
