SERIOUSLY, is cannabis addictive or not?

[Mr. Clandestine]

1. Tobacco is really addictive - Holy Crap quitting was harsh

I can't agree with you more. I've been struggling for years to kick the habit, and still can't help but fall back on it when times dictate. For instance, my wife's grandmother just passed away a little over a week ago. I hadn't had a cigarette for months before we found out the news of her impending fate, but as soon as I started going to the hospital/hospice every day (so we could dutifully wait for her to die), I started smoking again. I've been smoking a pack a day for almost a week. And, in all likelihood, I'll quit again next week... only to start smoking again when another hardcore stressor enters my life. It's a vicious cycle. If you don't mind me asking... what did it take for you to finally give it up?

2. Weed does have a psychological addiction "profile" - I can 'feel' when I'm slipping into it.

I think most of us can. More of a playful temptation than an addiction, but it's still there for many of us. Those who say they are immune to it are most likely in denial.
