Life is a complex game of choices my friend, wise ones equate to success, and poor ones result in failure...You seem to have made a lot of poor choices, and are continuing to do so.

You're not addicted to marijuana, you're addicted to not wanting to do jack shit but get stoned, because it's easier to do that. You can make yourself get a job and be successful in your life just as easily as you've made yourself get to where you are.

Is it really fun to scrounge up money to try and get high like a crack fiend, and mooch?? Or would it be more fun to get a job and be able to buy pot and have your own vehicle??
Just a comment about failure:

Aristotle believed failure to be just another form of productivity so do not feel down because something does not work like you think. As for the choices you make, everyone instinctively knows right from wrong. And if that is too bold of a claim it is at least clear enough to me that YOU UNDERSTAND RIGHT FROM WRONG. Just do your part to not make bad choices. Keep yourself safe from trouble because the trouble one can get into with the law is a far worse reality than anything else life can present.

I listened to a report of a young man not much older than yourself. His name is Travis Wolfkill and he is now facing a life-sentence in prison because he killed his grandmother over a $300 tax refund check. And I thought to myself, "this guy's life is effectively over now because he would not control his temper. He has to live the rest of his life in prison for an unjustifiable crime." Researchers want to believe that killers are different from the rest of us but all it takes is a choice. The idea is that he would not have made the choice to destroy someone's life had he been guided down a better path or equipped with good knowledge. But he was not. His reasoning mind confirmed that killing someone was the right path to take. Was that his only option? In reality, no it was not. I want you to understand is that we always have a choice. For some the knowledge may be acquired too late.

Take notice of yourself. Do not make decisions on a whim.
