Stay high.
this is a common rationale that really makes no sense. Certainly you can be physically addicted to weed. If not so, analgesic medicinal properties of weed would be nonexistent. How would it help with physical pain if it didn't carry the risk of physical addiction? Does it only treat psychosomatic disorders? Hell no.

The reason you can separate weed addiction from addiction to other drugs is because weed addiction has mild short and long term effects (for most). You could compare it to coffee addiction or a food addiction (both are physically real). But one can carry on these addictions and function in a relatively normal way and there's no stigma attached to those commonplace things. I believe weed would be the least harmful of these common addictions, though.

Also, the perceived physical need for a fix with stronger drugs is more extreme than that of herb.
