Weed def has some mild physical withdrawal, but nothing like opiates/benzos/or alcohol. It's not soul crushing ftmp.

But I consider anything needed outside of myself to function as an inconvenience, so that's pretty much life as a whole. Damned if you do damned if you don't. Gotta consume the world to experience it. I try to limit my consumption these days.

I'm addicted to naps for sure

The only point of saying weed is not addictive is to say you can quit with no negative repurcussions.

Now, if you become dependant on it for one reason or another, that's addiction.

Hey!!! Listen here you... I've been smoking weed since 1998 and I can stop anytime I want!

I thought this shit was left at reddit

I acknowledge I'm addicted. I smoke every day, but it doesn't have any negative effects on my life. I guess I'm a "productive stoner type" and the same can't be said for everyone but in general I think it makes my life better.

I mean, everybody has a vice, for me it's my phone and social media, I habitually check it every 5 or so minutes, it is an addiction but at least it isn't physically damaging like cigarettes

[–] Joe_0237@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Not getting enough exercise because you are checking every 5 minutes is physically damaging. Not saying its you but, its some people. I dont get enough because im addicted to getting things done. Which i feel is a good addiction as far as they go. But that problem does need solving.
