They are full of shit.

It isn't physically addictive. You can become dependent on it though.

Damn dude, that's a shit ton of weed. When's the last time you took a break? And have you ever considered taking a break for a month or so just to remind yourself of what life without it looks like?

Seriously, though, if you think you have a real problem, seek help. There's no shame in that.

It's not addictive. A person can become addicted to it though. Just like a person can become addicted to Coca Cola or chocolate.

You smoked an oz in 10 days? Holy shit!
I typically get 1/4 of dro every 3 weeks or so and smoke a bowl after work just to relax

I quit 3 weeks ago because I'm about to switch jobs and need to be able to pass a piss test. Other than occasionally wanting a hit, I'm doing ok with not smoking. That said, I will re-upping once the job is secured.

You should try cannabis butter. You can make your own brownies with it. It's cheap, about $20 to $40 a month. The only problem is you have to wait about an hour before it works and if you eat too much at once you can get sick.

Physically vs. mentally. You don't have withdrawals from it or anything, but you can sure get used to the feeling and miss it when you go a while without.

That's a lot of weed though Buck.

I stopped smoking after 4/20 after being pretty much a daily smoker and I had no problems smoking (although I'm thinking about smoking sometime in the next 2 weeks for old times sake).

But man, 700+ in a month is nuts. You were complaining about not having money for food in the fitness thread but you're spending that much on weed. That's pretty much rent money spent all on weed.

Just manage to stay off for about 3 or so days. After that you won't feel the need to smoke.

I've been a pot smoker my whole adult life. I've taken a couple or maybe three six-month to year long breaks in my life but only because it got to the point that weed was making me paranoid, especially that I would have a heart attack or something (mind you I was a very unhealthy person). That doesn't happen anymore.

If you see the picture, I obviously just bought some, so maybe I'll try to ween myself off it with this batch and then take a break and see how that goes. I didn't seriously think NA was an option for a marijuana smoker, but maybe I will have to.

Yes. I am ashamed of myself.

No they're not. I will sometimes stop for months at a time just to give myself a break. If it were addictive, I doubt I could just take it or leave it....

Meh. You gained control over food, you can control this too.

MA, not NA. Big difference.

MA could be a little extreme depending on your situation. Even a couple therapy sessions to talk it out might be able to help.

Here's another option (just found by Googling). Seems to be more self-help oriented.
