Can someone be addicted to marijuana?

Answer 1

If you want a short answer, then here it is. It's your first time smoking Marijuana. The THC (chemical in Marijuana that gets you high) of the plant goes thru your body, but your body doesn't know what to do with it. It's normal, and its just another way of saying that your body needs to adjust to the chemical. Over time, your body familiarizes with the THC, and uses it to get you to the "high" state.

Long answer:

Well, me and several of my friends have argued over this. I was once presented the idea by my brother that its all about technique and then I found this which basically proves he is right. My brother is freakishly smart too things just make sense to him, 1580 on SAT and 4.9 GPA (first 2 years of high school), then he started smoking and now he's at party school Umass. Anyways I got a link for ya and I will kinda explain it. http://www.thestraighttoke.com/getting-high-the-first-time-you-smoke-2008-05.420

My friend once said your body isn't adjusted to weed the first time and even with a big hit you wouldn't get high. Bull the reason it didn't happen to him his first time even though he got a fair size, not big, hit was he was home with some friends and afraid of getting in trouble pumping adrenaline which can easily counter the effects of many weak drugs. The supposed Caniboids should still trigger plenty of effects on the brain, given the strain of Cannibus. Most the things weed do are things you encounter in real life by other things, they just all come together for a more natural than you think HIGH. Get a big enough hit, and relax you'll be just fine.

The dude that wrote it has a lot of posts and is wicked smart, think I read MIT or WPI so read all his stuff about it and have fun man.

Answer 2

Because it clearly effects your brain, but not in a good way. My environmental teacher told us he used to smoke pot, & now you can defiantly tell its messed with his head till today.
It doesn't kill brain cells like some think. There has been scientific studies on it and it shows to actual strengthen some brain cells from alcohol when used at the same time. The only reason not to try marijuana is because you don't want to. It has very minimal damage done to you so it's just up to you rather you want to or not.

Answer 3

I belive that yes, you can be addicted to weed. But not like you are to cig's or crack. You could try smoking weed one, like it, and smoke it nonstop due to a persay "addictive Personality" which is the reason I have never smoked weed in my life. Cause of my addictive personnality.

Usually I disagree with people that say it is addictive, but this guy is right. If you have an "addictive personality" then yes you can become addicted. You can also become addicted to working (workaholics) and eating. Does that make working and eating bad? No. If a person is weak minded or likes to blame others for their problems, they they might become addicted. But to answer your question, I say no marijuana is not addictive by nature.

Yes, anyone can become addicted to marijuana as it is a drug that gives a high, and highs are usually the reasons for addiction.
