we're all addictied

To tell you the truth I dont think there is any way to tell whether you are addicted or not unless you actually tell yourself youll quit and try to go for it, then see how your body and mind respond. If you just say "im gonna quit for a month or two to prove it to myself" its kind of pointless, as your mind will still have the comfort of thinking about what it will be like when those one or two months are over. Periodiclly stopping does nothing, because you body will automaticly wait out whatever span of time your quitting for, as long as you get your fix after that.

Everything you do is an addiction. You eat because your stomache nags your brain to eat until you finaly do eat to get the nice chemical relief of being full. Same goes for sleeping, drinking, sex and prety much anything you do. Weed is defirent imho I think we (or at least I) smoke weed because an altered reality is much more fun/interesting then one that I live in everyday and it must release some kind of hormone because I always feal happy when I'm high.

Hormons and chemicals control most peoples lives or at least have a major effect on it.

yes, exactly. something inside us craves things. for example boobs. boobs dont exactly do anything, but they sure do make men feel good. why? Everyone is addicted to something in some form. Over achievers have to get good grades, some cry if they get a b+. others are hooked on sports, and for others, food. gluttony is overtaking america. a big mac is less healthy than a joint for christs sake, but the govt doesnt give a shit. we need all them rich people who smoke herb to get active. everything is addictive phsycologically. another example, obsessive compulsive people. they are addicted to certain pattern every day. if it changes, their whole fucking world crashes in.

What every tobbacco addict says:P no, i bet you cant quit...

i however dont smoke ciggy's i only smoke pot, and i dont ever want to quit :stoned:

no, everything is not an addiction. there's a difference between necessities (food) and addictions (weed).

I wouldnt put weed in the addiction catagory. I have been smokin for a year and I have never been addicted I know becuse I have stopped before for quite a while. Corporal punishment, are you a new smoker or just a new member here??

People arent depressed becuase they smoke if anything there happier!! Ignorance always comes with the newness of things. You just got to got around once and you'll get it. Us potheads are quite simple people if you ask me!! We may have complex things going on around us and shit but for the most us ourselves are just mellows people, man.

Actually the reason men like boobs is because they are forbidden in our society. Breasts are almost worshipped because we were taught from a young age that they are "naughty". The media is also no help in this, defining boobs as sexy and offering side shots almost every other TV show. In all honesty a breast is just a sack of fat with a nipple on it, and if you go to some country where the chicks run around with no shirts on I bet the men there will be way less interested in boobs.

it's not just a piece of fat with a nipple! I take pride in having nice good size breasts!! Boobs help babies whenever they need it most. A mothers milk helps the baby fight off certain sicknesses a baby can get, plus A WHOLE BUNCH more.

The reason people are so obssessed with women;s breast is the we just keep steeping to lower and lower levels, lusting over every gorgous women or mans bady. Something that has been a huge downfall on all society I think. For ex. I think that with all the strippers and everyone, It's making the rate of rape go up more and more. From expierence men dont like to be teased as much as they like to actually be pleasured. Well some of these men who go to strip joints just get teased a whole bunch and then want some pussy. Well they cant actually get any so they resort to raping someone. This is all because of what man has done to itself.

We're ruining ourselves more and more. Me personally I try to reframe from as much sexual activity as I can unless I have grown "something" between me and that special dude. We put too high of standards up as well.


It's not that they are forbidden, it's quite the opposite, it's such we have produced onpun oursleves such a strong sex appeal that, thats all people want now a days. everyone obsesses about how they look and how everyone else looks around them. People just need to chill out and just except people for who they are, not what they look like! Big boobs or not!! lol

I â??quitâ?� all the time, it happens when I run out of money. :rolleyes:

But seriously, the very fact that I can't just walk into any random store and buy weed ensures that from time to time I won't be able to aquire any weed. Other times, i'm just plain broke... Sometimes, I have plenty but choose to abstain if the location is not appropriate (formal events). When I go on trips, I neither attempt to take weed with me on the plane nor attempt to aquire it once I get to my destination. I simply acknowledge that i'm not going to smoke weed while i'm on the trip and it doesn't bug me. I'm not sure how well that would work out for a tobacco smoker or a heroin user...

Now given the choice to smoke weed or not to smoke weed, i'll always choose to smoke weed because I very much enjoy it.
