Habit...marijuana is in no way physically habit forming...and considering I've tried other things...I can say that everything I have tried is simply a mental addiction. The only thing I've found to have an physical addiction is juice/hard...and the physical addiction to it only lasts at most an hour. As in after using...the longest that I actually CRAVED it was an hour, after that, it's back to a mental game in which you simply have to have some will power.

it surely is a habit but i ve seen people becoming addicted to it, mainly psychologically

I agree that marijuana is not physically addictive. It is psychologically addictive for a small portion of regular marijuana users. I am one of those people.

Chronic marijuana users who quit cold turkey DO exhibit physical withdrawal symptoms such as insomnia, sweating, and tension.

If a person goes home every day and smokes a blunt, that is a habit. If a person goes home every day and NEEDS to smoke a that blunt, they are an addict. I know it seems like a fine line but it does exist.

When I run out of pot, I NEED to get more and crave it heavily.

If marijuana is having a negative effect on your life, regardless of the amount you smoke, and you can't stop, you are an addict. If you smoke a lot and are having no issues, I would call it a habit.

I wrote a post about the negative psychological effects of marijuana on my blog. Check it out here:

Habit. It is one of the few drugs that a person can't become physiologically addicted to because TCH doesn't totally mimic a compound our body makes. Our body therefore doesn't create new receptors for TCH like it does for opiates and narcotics.

both! depends on the person but both were dumb enough to try it

with you or with me?

All habits are a form of addiction whether it's mental, emotional or biological. Habits and addictions are very similar.
Weed is not addictive physically...however many people enjoy the altered brain so much they habituate its use.

It IS by far better for you than booze or cigarettes, and the government made those legal?
But weed makes big money for cops, lawyers, and judges...so why make it legal?
It's f-up. In most countries weed is legal in small quantities, as is coke and other 'social party usage.'

neither i smoke it for MS, it relieves my joint pain.

Do aids patients trying to develope an appetite have an addiction or habit no it's medicinal, so it's neither for millions of people

An addiction must satisfy three criteria:

1. It brings pleasure.
2. It causes havoc in the person's life or other persons' lives.
3. The person cannot control or stop the behaviour.

Therefore, it depends on the marijuana user whether it is an addiction or a habit. Some people smoke it occasionally with no negative side effects in their lives or other people's lives. Other people smoke regularly, spend lots of money on it, and making their lives less fruitful or meaningful.

Its a Habit. I don't think its necessarily an addictive substance. Its a pleasent substance that could cause you to want to take it, but it is not physically addictive.

While not physically addictive, many users have a strong psychological dependence on marijuana. Therefore, marijuana is psychologically addictive and not physically addictive in the traditional sense. Many habits are addictions. For example, many people who have smoking habits are addicted to nicotiene.
