Hasn't it already been clerified though as to what the definition of psychological addiction is. I don't know, I have stopped reading this closely, so people may still be arguing over semantics. Either way I can't talk, because I made like 20 posts when this topic certainly was that.Quote:

I say this a lot, but wow, I can't wait till i move to the Netherlands.
Bullshit. I'm a heavy user and when I don't have weed I'm fine. It's only addictive in the way that weed can repress depression, anxiety and insomnia and when you don't have it all of these things can kick back in.
Stop acting like you know what you're talking about.
HASH!!! Anyways I don't really think it is psychologically addicting. At one point I did, when i first started I smoked pretty much everyday for 2 months and quit for a week....My mood was uncontrolable and I went into mania. Of course I realize I was using weed more as medicine and stopping any medication so abruptley is mostly certain to cause negative effects. And most people I know may crave weed, but it's only because they like it, it's not because they need it.Quote:

End of.
Tbh no more needs to be put.
Ummm, yes terminology DOES matter. Weed is no more addicting than anything else that's enjoyable.Quote:

I love getting a healthy dose of carcinogens every morning.Quote:
Marijuana abuse also has the potential to promote cancer of the lungs and other parts of the respiratory tract because it contains irritants and carcinogens. In fact, marijuana smoke contains 50 to 70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons than does tobacco smoke. It also induces high levels of an enzyme that converts certain hydrocarbons into their carcinogenic form—levels that may accelerate the changes that ultimately produce malignant cells. Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than tobacco smokers do, which increases the lungs' exposure to carcinogenic smoke. These facts suggest that, puff for puff, smoking marijuana may be more harmful to the lungs than smoking tobacco.
While we're at it, let's take a look at some more bad things marijuana does to you.
Doesn't suprise me.Quote:
Some of marijuana's adverse health effects may occur because THC impairs the immune system's ability to fight disease. In laboratory experiments that exposed animal and human cells to THC or other marijuana ingredients, the normal disease-preventing reactions of many of the key types of immune cells were inhibited. In other studies, mice exposed to THC or related substances were more likely than unexposed mice to develop bacterial infections and tumors.
You're all going to end up retarded one day.Quote:
Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has the potential to cause problems in daily life or make a person's existing problems worse. Depression, anxiety, and personality disturbances have been associated with chronic marijuana use. Because marijuana compromises the ability to learn and remember information, the more a person uses marijuana the more he or she is likely to fall behind in accumulating intellectual, job, or social skills. Moreover, research has shown that marijuana’s adverse impact on memory and learning can last for days or weeks after the acute effects of the drug wear off
No. It is both physically and mentally addictive for EVERYONE. Stop spreading lies.Quote:

That link is bullshit, another load properganda.
We dont want that, we want fact.
So give the full story.
The carcinogens have no link to cancer, and if tyou blow out your hit after 3 seconds [a natural breath] allmost all the carcinogens are exhaled.
So dont bother posting your bullshit anymore, none of us want to read it, concidering WE know the truth about it.
Your a silly little idiot, you think what you like. You cant come on here and try and stop us smoking weed... the stuff is nearly 100% harmless... face it, youe wrong were like... if you dont like it fuck right off!
Leave, we dont want little pricks like you on this site trying to tell us how bad a plant is.. dont be stupid, we all know the truth.
Maybe you should accept it.
Or do wht i keep saying and leave for good.
