Your a Fucking Idiot , i smoke A Natural Chemical free plant called Marijuana, You must be very Naive person if you think Weed is Addicting, in fact Latest research has shown there are no shown addicting chemicals in marijuana,which makes it NOT ADDICTING! how ever i can agree with you,that marijuana could be adicting in a sense that, Weed is addicting because of its pleasurable satisfaction it brings us,no different from Sex,Watching T.V.,massages,playing sports,Eating ect.
I like the stuff, but it is correct that it can be addicted and have withdrawal symptoms, it is good in moderation but most of the time that is possible for avid smokers
idiots haha. ive smoked cannabis everyday for 3 years and in no way shape or form is it hard to stop. i can easily have breaks off it and not experience one mental withdrawal. addiction is all in the mind. you can get addicted to anything people. look it up. the fact is stoners just cant find a good enough reason to not smoke this incredibly useful 100% harmless plant. wake up people and do your own research. dont listen to the governments lies. isnt it obvious they only care about themselves..
@ItsTheTrickAttack you agree right? im happy that i live in BEAUTIFUL BRITISH COLUMBIA in an area where over 50% smoke dope and 10% grow it lol some reallly lazy people quit there jobs and shit for dope but they are the 1%'s and seem to be the only one portrayed in the media
@BCdipper1 hah of course i agree. even the people who quit their jobs are fine. life is about doing what you want to do. not what the government tells us to do.
@ItsTheTrickAttack Well I find Im addicted Ive smoked it for three years the longes ive ever gone with out it is almost a month and it was hard then I bought a gram and was hooked like that I don't understand how people say its not addictive it seems people who say that are smoking it like I used to say the same thing until I would try and stop then I get erratible and can't sleep
I quit smoking cannabis every start of the school year and the only withdrawal I have is hunger, which goes away after 2 weeks. It really isn't that bad.
thc has not changed in 20 years the % has which is a product of prohibition there is no phisical addiction if u think thats addiction u have to think eating is
I LOVE THESE F#$%ING IDIOTS SAYING ITS MORE POTENT... SO WHAT???? THAT JUST MEAN BACK IN THE DAY I WOULD HAVE RIPPED 20 HOOTS INSTEAD OF 2 TO GET THE SAME HIGH!!!! BTW THE MORE YOU SMOKE THE MORE SHIT IS IN YOUR LUNGS!!!! SO REALLY POTENT POT IS BETTER FOR YOU
The only reason why so many kids are involved in these clinics is because when they get caught by the police they have 2 choices, go to jail or a rehab clinic. Stop listening to what the media says and go ask someone who has actually does it. Shit is not addictive my friends.
anyone whos smoked long enough will tell you that at some point your brain feels like mush and you become very hazy in a more permanent way. memory loss is not as funny when it happens months after youve quit and actually starts affecting your life badly. it is addictive and i can testify to it. if you do it recreationally awesome for you but i know many like myself have gotten addicted as well.
This is a good idea!!! Arrest highschool kids so then they can't get any gov loans or aid in college good job dumb motherfuckers. But keep up the good work cops we're not suffering because of it.
Please nanny state, ban crap quack daytime tv shows. Some fat ladies have become highly addicted to it sitting around watching it all day and it's ruining lives. I SEE IT EVERYDAY IN MY PROFESSION!
First it doesn't have a higher thc content than years before. Second. There are no withdrawal symptoms any more harsh than withdrawal symptoms if you were to watch television your whole life and then stop suddenly. When you do anything a lot and too much addictive or non addictive "quitting" is going to take some amount of effort
lol i did it for three years and i just stopped out of nowhere and now im 5 years sober....this is really really fake...oh and i just smoked hi grade chronic
LIES, LIES, LIES ! People are interested in the TRUTH! Nothing to do with getting high. This plant will more then likely ELIMINATE most serious illness.

OMG not marijuana withdrawals!! Oh the horror... I smoked everyday for a year and at one point I was taking 120-200mg hydrocodone a day, and man I swear to god the hot and cold flashes, constant shits every 20 minutes and the 10 lb weight on my back, not to mention severe drug craving of the hydrocodone withdrawals could never begin to compare with the horrible Marijuana withdrawals 'syndromes' I was experiencing. I mean for christ sake I woke up the day I stopped a little tired.. The horror..
how can any addiction on anything be an illness and must be forced institution. he just love to lock people up and enforce medication. look how quick he was to diagnose Joaquin Phoenix and Britney Spears. Do not trust this guy. If you encounter one anything you say or do is the addiction. you have no voice.
I smoked 1-3 grams of super dank almost everyday for the past 4 years. I stopped because I needed to get ready for graduate school, when I did I was miserable for a period of time... I had feelings of nausea, headaches, insomnia, irritability, lack of appetite, loose stools and a foggy brain, all of which I experienced for a good 2 months before they eventually subsided, although the low grade anxiety is still around.
@califlany Seems like you have a little thing i like to call the placebo effect. this has happened to me as well. i believed that pot was addictive and oncei quit smoking i believed this so much that it was actually happening. i couldnt sleep i had anxiety etc. but in the end i realised that there was no REAL addiction and it was all in my head. i just kept myself busy doing other things and these so called "withdrawl symptoms" quickly went away. ITS ALL IN YOUR HEAD.
this guy is dumb he's so ignorant and yet because he's white and he has glasses he things he so elegant and that he knows fuckin everything. hes a dumbfuck
WHAT THE FUCK. Educate yourselves, this doesn't make a lick of sense. You know how many deaths are attributed to prescription medications? What about over the counter? Asprin causes between 500-1000 deaths a year. And cannabis? NONE. NO death has ever been recorded from overdosing (which you can't) or 'withdrawing' (what a joke) from cannabis. Get your facts straight.
Shelly you are so uneducated and so uninformed as well as you Dr. Drew. The both of you only see the false information that the government portrays with countless idiotic studies that they claim proves something. The reality is marijuana is far less addictive than alcohol, cigarettes, and almost every other illegal drug. Cannabis does not have, "withdrawal syndromes," and even for heavy user quitting marijuana is not a very hard thing to do.
i smoked weed for ten years straight and now am on week two not high and my mind is fucked up... if u can smoke once a week as recreation this is not directed at u... if u get anxious when ur weed is running out and have to immediately get more i suggest trying to quit for awhile and see how u feel... id say the same thing to any other addiction that starts to rule ur life and ur lifestyle... its lame... trust me
hahahahahaha "You keep trying to get higher and higher and then move on to bath salts..." Why the FUCK would somebody that smokes dank ass shit move to fucking bath salts? And withdraw?!? notice they don't even say any symptoms just "severe withdraw" because they KNOW they're making this shit up out there asses.
Withdrawal Syndromes? I smoke weed only on the weekends because I don't want to fuck up my school work too bad and during the week I feel totally fine. NO Sypmtoms. Maybe I can't get to sleep very well but the next few days I 100% Fine. Fuck all you faggots on HLN spreading this mis information
192 stoners go stoners :) and plz stop puting bath salt next to my herb i have never wanted to go do drugs because my herb isent gettin me stoned ill just go smoke some more pot and have a good time peace an pot and cheers all my stoners this hit is for yall
And yet we hear messages on commercials every day about how Abilify may be right for you... And nobody even realizes how much Prozac and other mind stupefying drugs are being pumped into your city tap water... which you drink and absorb into your skin every time you take a shower.
I can prove you are right simply with my medical record.
As of last month, I have been prescribed taken EVERY psychiatric medication, excluding the majority of stimulants, (because after taking Adderall and not being able to sleep for about 3 days the dock said I couldn't take ANY stims). I just turned 17, and I already hit the end of my rope. Ive been through mental hospitals, taken every pill, untill EVERY Psych I went to said, "I'm so sorry...there's nothing else we can do for u."
Sounds like you might benefit from an escape from whatever environment you are in.
Drink purified water with added minerals and exercise until you sweat all the bad stuff out...
Eat and drink lots of fruits nuts and vegetables and find a good farmer to get you raw milk and yogurt.
Ween yourself off those meds SLOWLY... until you are off them completely and listen to a lot of classical music by mozart / betoven / liszt every day...
dr drew is the stupidest asshole ever i have not smoked for 2 months and i have not had any withdrawal from it and i have been smoking for 2 years and i am not having withdrawal and i wont who ever thinks it is, is a dumbass
I had what my drug counsellor called acute withdrawal syndrome. I had gone 3 days without pot, spent 15 mins having a talk with her, then she gave me a booklet about what I had already experienced. I then went back to work and continued my life. It is not really that addictive
lool this is bullshit, take away tv and half you fucking animals would kill each other, the food you fucks are eating is thousands of times worse for you then smoking weed for any amount of time. withdrawls? have you ever seen a crack head? Have you seen a stoner go kill someone for a dime. fuck no, its not physically addictive and anything can be psychologically addictive. complete bullshit coming from what they hear from others, ive been smoking for over 5 years and am xtremly healthy...
@chromakey84 hey if pot is so great why dont u quit for a month... if theirs no withdrawal try falling asleep the first couple night without tylenol pm... sounds like u really like ur addiction and if everyone does it, it doesnt seem so bad
@chromakey84 I heard some guy on the radio posing as a doctor claim that tobacco was only habit forming, not addictive. So, there'sya a twist in the opposite direction. As a former smoker and chewer, I gaurantee that guy didnt know what the crap he was talking about.
@AAAUUUUGGGHHH Just stop it, of everyone that uses cannabis there are like 1% who swear that there are withdrawl syndromes and you guys are helping keep it illegal with your b.s. The power of suggestion is what I think you're really experiencing.
Hahaha isn't it funny that I can take a t-break whenever the fuck I want ? I have absolutely no withdrawal... The worst that has ever happened was I couldn't sleep at a normal time for one night... Stop lying Dr. Drew.
@AAAUUUUGGGHHH , in those 20 years it would be very rare for me not to smoke it daily. Sometimes all day and night or sometimes just at night. At times i had very potent marijuana and sometimes just average. I was just speaking on my own experience. It may affect others differently. Dr. Drew was saying every heavy marijuana user will get addicted and have withdrawal symptoms when they quit. He also said it will make them turn to heavier drugs. All of that was false in my case.
These people are full of shit. i smoked pot for 20 years and quit 2 years ago without any withdrawal symptoms. Sure i craved a joint every now and then at first just like i would crave something sweet to eat. But it was no big deal at all. During those 20 years i would go without it from time to time to lower my tolerance level and that wasnt a problem for me either.
ive gone weeks without smoking after smoking all day everyday and never had any withdrawl. weed is good for you!!! it can cure cancer and improve everyday life!! this guys full of shit!!
@Dr00ski666 That's right it kills cancer cells and can cure cancer for people if (and only if) they consume it in oil form, ingesting not smoking it. But I guess Shelly here would say that that's 'misinformation'. Which is really just a projection of what she's doing. After all she was a drug addict all her life and now she's a drug rehab counselor, so she has the incentive to spread drug war propaganda. Otherwise what else is she going to do for a living?
@Aislan4414 Yeah DUMBFUCK. He doesn't have all of those. He's just a 'addiction specialist'- the rest of those are LIES. He's already been investigated by several sources and doesn't have an MD from a REAL school. He's bought most of those credentials.
@electronicoffee You do know marijuana use can heavily contribute to paranoia in some people right? Denial of a doctor's proven credentials is paranoia.
@MsColdCanada SORRY DUMBFUCK. Dr. Drew thinks gays are gay because of being molested. That obviously shows his education is TRASH as EVERY MAJOR Psych group and association in America and the ENTIRE First World says that's bullshit. DR DREW IS A DUMBFUCK WITH NO "REAL" Education. Just because you have the degree doesn't mean you got an education, you fucking retard.
The American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) is a professional society representing close to 3,000 physicians dedicated to increasing access and improving quality of addiction treatment, educating physicians and the public, supporting research and prevention, and promoting the appropriate role of physicians in the care of patients with addictions. <-- FUCKING QUACKS AND LOSERS! This is the heavily bias group that Dr. Drew is referring to. What a fucking JOKE. GET YOUR FAKE DEGREE TODAY!
"Keeping drugs out of school during these formative years.." Sorry DUMBFUCK. It's not a 'different pot' from years ago. It's cleaner, better tasting, and better for you than the moldy bullshit that used to have to be buried for months.
@InhabitantOfGalaxy SORRY DUMBFUCK You are a crazy cunt. That's your problem. All of your symptoms are completely unrelated to pot and most of those "changed eating, tension, abdominal pain" are all psychosomatic symptoms (ie: you stress yourself out and you feel those physical symptoms. It's IN YOUR FUCKING HEAD RETARD. Marijuana does NOT AFFECT BRAIN CHEMISTRY you DUMBSHIT. YOUR BRAIN MAKES MORE THC THAN ANY AMOUNT YOU CAN SMOKE How fucking ignorant are you? Qutting hamburgers = quitting pot.
"Abdominal tension, changed eating, changed sleep, uncomfortable dreams" THOSE ARE NOT THE USUAL SYMPTOMS OF WITHDRAWL YOU DUMBFUCK. Anyone who says that bullshit is a QUACK and cannot and SHOULD NOT be listened to. ALL FOUR of those symptoms are four of the EASIEST to replicate due to STRESS (like being a self-absorbed cunt who blames all of their problems on pot). I've known many people like you 'oh my god, my life sucks cause of pot'. No, YOU FAIL AT LIFE. Pot < Crazy.
Anything is 'addictive' if you a. like it enough, and b. it 'severely impacts the core areas of your life' (such as work, education, family relationships, romantic relationships, etc.). So by this definition, dumbfucks like Drew Pinsky can call anything an addiction if someone breaks up with you about it, a family member doesn't like it, or it takes 'too much time' (what does that even mean) out of your daily life. So I guess everyone in America is addicted to television then right?lol
Right on. There's not a SINGLE study that shows Marijuana is addictive, other than the BULLSHIT 'mental addiction' which can literally be anything (eating, television, jogging, gambling, sex, etc.) all FAKE addictions; it's just shit people like to do a lot. I bet even though you've been 'clean' for a while, if you went back and smoked a joint that Dr. Drew would be like 'Oh see, there's your addiction rearing it's head again'. He's a QUACK with NO REAL EDUCATION OR DEGREE.
Pot is a great thing, that's the only thing that makes it addictive. Baseball is addictive. Gambling is addictive. Alcohol is addictive. Music is addictive. Sex is addictive. We are only human. Anything can take ahold of our mind if we let it. It all depends on if you let it...
@SuperRyanBMX Right on and 100% True. The word addiction, like many others, has been constantly redefined by dumbfucks like Dr. Drew attempting to make more and more money and capitalize on people who are down in their lives by making them feel 'evil and wrong' from just smoking a joint or whatever. He's a CUNT with no REAL education and NO REAL science to back him up.
Hey guys what happens when you go on vacation and you dont have bud??? Sucks doesnt it . Its called an addiction. What happens if you dont smoke before you go to sleep? Sucks doesnt it. You can keep rationalising it which is what potheads do but your just fooling yourself. Mj is not addicting from occasional use . Hes probably referring to the people that smoke all day everyday. You know that you get easily angered or irritable when your not ripped. Once again its called an addiction and for al
@brushuto91 What happens if you don't get to have sex? Sucks doesn't it. Uh oh we're all sex addicts. What happens if you don't get to listen to your favorite music? Sucks doesn't it. Okay then we're music addicts. What happens if you don't get to do your favorite physical activity like running or playing sports or skateboarding? Sucks doesn't it. I guess everything in life that you like is a horrible addiction. We better just quit doing everything that's pleasurable.
What happens if you are a regular heroin user and you don't get your heroin? VIOLENT PHYSICAL WITHDRAWL SYMPTOMS. Why? BECAUSE IT'S AN ACTUAL ADDICTION.
Hahaha what a joke. Anything can be addictive if you use it in a routine.. If you eat mcdonalds every day for a year then all of the sudden stop eating it you'll go through the same(if not worse) "withdrawl" symptoms as THC. Alcohol nicotine and caffeine are worse than THC but nobody says anything about cigarettes or soda because they generate tax revenue. ...get your facts straight.
YOU CHOOSE ADDICTION!. Mostley every fuck in the world finds it hard to quit a addiction because fucks like you and ones around you broadcast and brainwash this made up shit and then insist you to believe in that shit ..... and then it fucks with your head!. Stop listening to these fake ass know nothing cunts and listen to your self for once.
lmao you got a fuckin stiff ass know it all tv doctor and a fuckin "X" crack/dope head junkie bitch trying to say what other people should do with their lives... do I sense hypocrisy or is it just me?
Why don't we have cops going under cover to prevent under age drinking activities? Those are the places girls get raped and kids get hurt. When has a woman ever been murdered or raped by a guy who was stoned?? Alcohol, tobacco and prescription drugs are far worse than weed and the fact that American tax dollars go into ruining kids life for something nowhere near as dangerous as other substances is an atroucity. Fuck Dr, Drew and fuck the irrational unjust laws against weed.
SUGAR IS ADDICTIVE, FATS ARE ADDICTIVE, CAFFEINE IS ADDICTIVE, SEX IS ADDICTIVE, LOVE IS ADDICTIVE, ANYTHING THE BRAIN LIKES AND THAN REACTS TO WHEN IT'S NO LONGER EXPOSE TO IT, IS CONSIDERED ADDICTIVE, IT DOES NOT-NOT-NOT-NOT MAKE IT "DANGEROUS"!!!!
THE with drawl symptoms might consist of some sleeplessness for no more then a week and possible mild headaches... THAT'S IT.... they're milder then caffeine with drawl!!!! you wanna talk about WITH DRAWL.... what about heroin!? ya, all that opium the U.S. marines are growing and shipping out of Afghanistan.... 90% of the business comes out of there, thanks to the U.S. military complex!!! fuck you DREW... scumbag, liar, narc, piece of human garbage, you're an horrible person and a TERRORIST!!!
If he is so sure about marihuana being addictive. Find any pot head and offer them a lot of money to quit smoking weed. If they were addicted they could not do so right? If he dared to put up all of his money for this bet, against any random heavy weed smoker he would lose all his money. And thats what this guy is all about, MONEY.
Of course cannabis is addictive, just as alcohol & cigarettes and even foods can be addictive. That's a given and for anyone to deny that is just stupid. But what's even more ridiculous is to think that Marijuana has a "rather severe " withdrawal syndrome. Heroin, cocaine, crystal methamphetamine & alcoholism all have extremely severe withdrawal syndromes. Giving up Marijuana is just as hard as giving up cigarettes. If you want to protect children from weed, than legalize it.
Weed is weed is weed, they just keep repeating this mantra of higher THC levels to scare the baby boomers to vote against it. Drew is a shill and his crack whore on stage with him will say whatever he tells her to say. Keep equating bath salts and Marijuana you fucking prick and karma will catch your ass.
It's like anything else too much isn't good for you, I'm not judging just saying, food is good, but too much makes us fatter, too much drinking and you'll be wasted, etc.
What fucking tools.Marijuana is in no way addictive,and there is no Withdrawal Syndrome.I have smoked pot on a regular basis and then quit at the drop of a hat,probably 30 times.This is disinformation!!!The only side affect for most people is laziness(less motivation to accomplish tasks).
14 years of smoking everyday (last decade High grade only), then I quit and the only change is that I went from exercising once a week to three times a week.... Dangerous withdrawal symptoms?!? An extra 2 days of exercise? I think not mr./mrs. TV propagandists.
@ProsperiaFan Dr Drew said withdrawl 'syndrome' not 'symptoms'. The dif is one is mental and the later is physical. It is mentally addictive, that has never been disputed. Dr Drew fails to let any one know that. He could even say that your extra excersize is to compensate for your 'syndrome'. I cant believe that in 2011 a "Dr" is using the old Reefer Madness argument. He was one step away from saying youll jump out a window on pot. bath salts yeah, not pot.
@delreydavid I kinda went with syndromes (concurrence of symptoms) having symptoms and ran with that idea. I really don't follow TV doctors or the modern medical practice propaganda of today. I can say that lack of pot has hurt my GPA 4.0 to 3.6 maybe because I decided to quit during exam week :/ I had about 3 to 5 days tops of being like "I wouldn't mind getting high now" then nothing much after. I forced my self to exercise since I couldn't get into mindless things like video games as easily.
if you stop using for 30 days, take vitamin b (non-flush niacin) you can go back to enjoying the other affects again. Sure habitually using anything is one of the markers for addiction, but in that case there are many things on that list not the least of which is gasoline btw. The craving for weed is done pretty quickly and there is more likely to be increased energy than irritability. Weed is a safe use drug, and you can't say that for alcohol or cigarettes. It could be regulated easily.
Studies show that schools that did not have the Drug Free School Zoning, were actually less prone to have kids with drugs on campus. Also I love how this video pulls a bait and switch, correlating a research chemical commonly referred to as "bath salts" which is a highly dangerous yet legal substance, to marijuana use. Sneaky sneaky, Dr Drew.
With assholes like these running off at the mouth we will not see a change in the laws anytime soon, unfortunately.
this is the most ridiculous crap i have seen in awhile... i am 61 yrs. old,and have seen and done a lot of stuff,including smoking marijuana... anyone who smokes pot knows there are always times it just can't be found..sometimes,depending on the season, for quite a while. Where are the crying, shivering,sick withdrawing pot '''addicts''? They don't exist.People who go from one drug to another,seeking relief,or release..are self-medicating an underlying illness,and need a doctor,not prison!
Idiots!!! Anyone who still believes this crap, needs some therapy. The ignorance of these people amazes me. Yes, let's put all our children in prison. I'm sure that will solve the problem. Idiots.
Sorry, this is bullshit, bullshit, bullshit!! If someone is abusing bath salts then go after bath salts!!
Cannabis Is psychologically addictive not physically! It has a very minor withdrawal at best!
I smoked the most potent stuff available in college and walked out with a GPA over 3.8! The blessed herb obviously didn't negatively influence my ability to learn!
How can these people sit there and lie like that? After 2000 years of near worldwide use, it's just ridiculous. Seriously, these people need to grow up and stop living in denial, or break the ADDICTION to there all mighty paychecks.
What an utter load of shit. I've smoked copious quantities of grass for weeks on end and then stopped. For a day or two I miss having a toke, but that's all. I've also smoked cigarettes. And stopping them is way, way, way more of a bummer.
Everyone who has actually compared smoking cannabis to smoking tobacco, as you and I both have, knows this to be true. These uniforms are lying to the public.
yeah! You wanna know the severe withdrawal syndrome? All of sudden, you turn into a jerk! Gimme a break! I can't believe they are even comparing this with "bath salts". i am disappointed in you Dr. Drew. And by the way...who was the WASTED 'drug counselor' chiming in? She sure acted like she had been sampling some of the drugs they were talking about!! Ha!
Your a Fucking Idiot , i smoke A Natural Chemical free plant called Marijuana, You must be very Naive person if you think Weed is Addicting, in fact Latest research has shown there are no shown addicting chemicals in marijuana,which makes it NOT ADDICTING! how ever i can agree with you,that marijuana could be adicting in a sense that, Weed is addicting because of its pleasurable satisfaction it brings us,no different from Sex,Watching T.V.,massages,playing sports,Eating ect.

I smoked 1-3 grams of super dank almost everyday for the past 4 years. I stopped because I needed to get ready for graduate school, when I did I was miserable for a period of time... I had feelings of nausea, headaches, insomnia, irritability, lack of appetite, loose stools and a foggy brain, all of which I experienced for a good 2 months before they eventually subsided, although the low grade anxiety is still around.

@califlany Seems like you have a little thing i like to call the placebo effect. this has happened to me as well. i believed that pot was addictive and oncei quit smoking i believed this so much that it was actually happening. i couldnt sleep i had anxiety etc. but in the end i realised that there was no REAL addiction and it was all in my head. i just kept myself busy doing other things and these so called "withdrawl symptoms" quickly went away. ITS ALL IN YOUR HEAD.

Shelly you are so uneducated and so uninformed as well as you Dr. Drew. The both of you only see the false information that the government portrays with countless idiotic studies that they claim proves something. The reality is marijuana is far less addictive than alcohol, cigarettes, and almost every other illegal drug. Cannabis does not have, "withdrawal syndromes," and even for heavy user quitting marijuana is not a very hard thing to do.

Anything is 'addictive' if you a. like it enough, and b. it 'severely impacts the core areas of your life' (such as work, education, family relationships, romantic relationships, etc.). So by this definition, dumbfucks like Drew Pinsky can call anything an addiction if someone breaks up with you about it, a family member doesn't like it, or it takes 'too much time' (what does that even mean) out of your daily life. So I guess everyone in America is addicted to television then right?lol

Right on. There's not a SINGLE study that shows Marijuana is addictive, other than the BULLSHIT 'mental addiction' which can literally be anything (eating, television, jogging, gambling, sex, etc.) all FAKE addictions; it's just shit people like to do a lot. I bet even though you've been 'clean' for a while, if you went back and smoked a joint that Dr. Drew would be like 'Oh see, there's your addiction rearing it's head again'. He's a QUACK with NO REAL EDUCATION OR DEGREE.

Of course cannabis is addictive, just as alcohol & cigarettes and even foods can be addictive. That's a given and for anyone to deny that is just stupid.

if you stop using for 30 days, take vitamin b (non-flush niacin) you can go back to enjoying the other affects again. Sure habitually using anything is one of the markers for addiction, but in that case there are many things on that list not the least of which is gasoline btw. The craving for weed is done pretty quickly and there is more likely to be increased energy than irritability. Weed is a safe use drug, and you can't say that for alcohol or cigarettes. It could be regulated easily.
