I believe that there are two different ways one can become addicted to a substance. One is a physical addiction. This is characterized by tolerance, withdrawls, dependencies, etc. This is commonly seen in crack, any opiats, nicotine, and even caffeine.
The other kind of addiction is a mental one. One can become mentally addicted to just about anything. Whether this is TV, music, work, or weed, its all relatively the same: pleasure. It is easy to become mentally addicted to pleasure. Particularly in the US, many of us are mentally addicted to something such as TV or fast food.
It should be remembered that there IS a small amount of physical addiction for weed. It has been documented and studied, folks. However, while it is slightly physically addictive, there are MANY other drugs that are much more addictive. Even caffeine, a substance that is completely accepted in society, is more physically addictive than weed. I mean, earlier today I had a headache. As soon as I had my daily caffeine intake, my headache was gone. I have never gotten anything as bad as that when I would go for a week without weed.
The key rule about weed that I believe everyone should follow is this: Never, ever let weed become the most important thing in your life. If you find yourself making weed your largest priority, you ought to really step back for a second and figure out what you are doing with your life. Things like family, friends, and yer career should always come before weed. If you can smoke like crazy but still make those other things your top priority, then by all means, light that thing...
