Hey guys..

I havent been smoking weed long atall.. but the main concern i have with it right now.. isnt the weed itself.. but all the tobacco im smoking rolled with it..

ive been wondering.. does anyone know how long it takes before you become fully addicted to tobacco.. i havent totally thought it through yet.. but it is something i want to avoid..

does anyone have any advice.. any info.. or some alternatives.. anything would be appreciated :thumbsup:

if you are not adicted already you may be one of the Few lucky people who can stop at any time... I would smoke a few bowls w/out the Tobacco and see if you crave the baccy part...

I dunno, I've smoked butts just when I drink for like 6 years...so yeah...I think the addiction is a little overrated (jk?). I mean, come on, it smells like shit....but when your drunk, they're good.

Yes. Don't smoke the tobacco. Marijuana makes you feel a lot better than it does, and it doesn't pose a risk to your health.

Its obviously different for everyone. I know people who did after a few cigarettes, then some people years. And then me and some of my friends have like 1 butt when drinking...and will never be 'addicted' to it...

It can take from anywhere to just a few times of smoking, to a week or two of regular smoking. It's the way the chemical interacts with your brain in making it necessary to have nicotine to feel as though it's functioning correctly. A dependence.

But see if you can go a week or two of drinking without smoking that cigarette, friend. I said the same thing, but now I find myself every day smoking at least part of a cigarette when I get high...because I thought I wasn't addicted and didn't have to smoke regularly. However, I really do. Every time I get high, I must find a cigarette. (it isn't hard, the other three people in my house smoke so it's something that I'm not going to be able to avoid until I'm living in a different environment)

well.. feeling the need to go hunting for a cigarette every time i get stoned is something i really dont want.. i dunno...

maybe a pipe is the best way to do it.. ?

My ex-wife was a person that could have a cigg with a glass of wine,,,then not smoke one for a months,,,never could understand that???

Well, I just using that as an example..it obviously varys. Sometimes I'll go months then buy a pack for the weekend. This has been going on for 6ish years so go figure. Plus, when I'm not drinking or something, I hate the smell of the smoke, and it tastes Nasty.

I use to not say it so I wouldn't 'jinx' myself, but its been so long that I do say it...I won't become addicted...ever.

Many would argue with you here... I could stop smoking pot much much easier than quiting the ciggs was,,,much easier,,,did I say Much easier???

I don't understand the confusion here. If you still want to smoke pot in a joint, then simply roll the joint without tobacco. It takes more weed, but it will taste and feel 100% better than with tobacco. Tobacco is just nasty shit altogether, so just roll without it. :)

I mentioned pipe because it seems the Brits only roll with baccy...

Some big famous Brit should speak out against this practice IMO,,,nicotine addiction to newcomerz should be stopped!!!... Just like it is illegal here to target kids with cigarette ads...

You said you don't smoke with your pipe because its too harsh, then why not just roll a joint of pure jane? You can also throw some of the ment herb in there too, makes for a decent smoke if you have problems with it being too rough.

It's hard to pass up a joint when smoking with friends, even though I know there's baccy in it. I despise doing it but i do it.. I only smoke pure herb by myself tho, which i why i prefer to blaze alone.

ive smoked plenty of blunts and cigarettes and never really became addicted to it. for me weed prevents me from becoming addicted to nicotine.

i am one of those people i smoked cigarettes for awhile then just quit one day and never had a craving. the only reason i smoked was because i was always with other people that were smoking cause almost everybody at my school smoked. with weed tho its a different story i like to say i can just quit smoking weed anytime but then i always find my self getting more. just a habit i gues.

like I said,,,it totally confounded me when my ex would pick up and just put down with ease... I have a sister in law with cancer and she still smokes... I'm amazed at the wide spectrum in addiction,must be some sort of body chemistry...

It is different for everyone. I have gone through phases here and there where I take drags from people(this has been going on a few years)....and I have never even come close to being addicted. I think therefore I just never will....
Odd though right? Everyone always told me I was going to get addicted...but I just never did. Everyone around me is severly addicted.

Most people say it took them about a year before they were fully addicted.

I don't know why I don't get addicted...

Be careful though, you don't want to be addicted.

Yeah....there was a little period of time where I just took a drag of a cigarette everytime I was with someone who lit on up...and they always gave me drags or shared their cigarette with me and just said to me "I don't feel bad giving you drags because I know your just one of those people that can do that and not get addicted.."....always compared me to a friend of hers.

She was so right on...I hardly ever take drags when I am sober anymore(unless someone has a clove...I see them so rarely, but I like them even though they're so bad...)...but yeah every once in awhile now when I am super drunk I will take a drag.

I bought myself one pack of sweet dreams, first pack I ever bought myself. I smoked maybe half of one...and then they just sat in my window sill for soo long. I would always give them to people when they were super desperate, because all the smokers I know thought they were nasty. I think I ended up throwing those away.

I just hate that nasty after taste and how they make my fingers smell. I will never get that.

why would you ever poision your herb with something like tobbaco.. or if you're taking it from "tobacco cigarettes" like marlboro its only paper dipped in nicotine and other caustic chemicles really.

I totally agree...even when I'm drunk and have a few halls, I have to wash my hands after lol, and as for the after-taste...it doesn't mix good with beer so I usually have to hit up one of my female friends for a sip of their malt beverage hah.

The taste and smell alone keep me from being addicted...its just impossble.

the way this thread is going like,,, bias to non addictive could not be farther from reality... tobacco is probably the most addictive substance known to man...

well umm

ive been first smoking jays with tobacco in it (i still do)
then i started smoking cigarettes
its been like 1yr 1/2-2yrs now
and i am not addicted at all, i can stop for weeks
and i still get a slight tobacco buzz

i dont mean that you shouldn't be aware of that
its just that i dont think you're gonna get addicted to it if you only put some in your jays

cannabis is NOT addicting. Just because you want to smoke it when you don't have it doesn't mean you're addicted. Just means you like it a lot:smokin:
Now..if you go a day or two without marijuana and start twitching and become quite irritable..than i'd agree and say you're addicted.

When I don't have weed I become overly talkative and annoying.

Even I annoy myself....:stoned:

It is definitely 100% psychologically addictive...have you ever been on this site before?
