Why can't people admit that Marijuana is addictive???? IT'S A DRUG and if you have been doing it it's obiously because you like and and want to...you don't get nothing out of it but a skip from reality for a while...so yes I believe it's a drug....I know that the onlly reason it's illegal is because the government wouldn't make money otherwise but still it is a drug....am I the only one who feels this way???
I dont think it is addictive---I think it is a gateway drug that leads to more addicitng drugs like coke and crack and heroin and whatever and or foolish behavior--getting in trouble....so HUGS NOT DRUGS
I would like too add I just hate people who try to jusitfy thier weed smoking by saying the only thing wrong is it is against the law---WAKE UP----
People who smoke pot act stupid and retarded and stink ..ECK
BLAH BLAH BLAH I am so sick of people talking about cigs and alcohol being drugs too---i know they are but they are legalThats what my dad would always mumble when he had a METH addiction....Its just a cop out to make the drug not seem so bad.
WEED is a gateway drug---Ive seen it so many times --First they usually smoke a laced joint.....Or pop a pill because they like how it feels
My brother started smoking weed and now he is popping vicodin and other stuff....PLUS MANY OTHER PEOPLE I KNEW
Yeah0---Because it helps Them "relax" and "get away for awhile"
People need to learn to face their problems and not run away from them...By doing ILLEGAL drugs
Thats why i stopped hangin gout with anyone who does drugs....
Just not my crowd anymore and the peer pressure isnt there......
And think about this...
If you hang around negative/down people who have to use drugs to take a break from thier problems then you will also
be down as a result from the people and after the Ganga wears off....you will be more down
If you surround yourself with positve people then you will feel more positive and not need to smoke weed to drown out your troubles..
I could go on about this subject for hours....

Alcoholics Anonymous(AA) and Narcotics Anonymous(NA) are great places to start. I don't know of any specific places, but AA and NA are free (the only requirement is the desire to stop drinking and using). I am sure the local AA and NA chapters will know of good rehab centers near you. Good luck!

For people who are addicted to drugs such as cigarettes, marijuana, alcohol, heroine, etc. do they actually feel good after they take the drugs? Or do they simply feel normal like the rest of us once they do?
In other words, once they're addicted, do they use the drugs habitually to feel or normal?
Or do they use the drugs to achieve a feeling of well-being?
I guess its all depend on the person however drug addiction is definitely not good for everyone especially on out health.
Just got done reading an amazing article about marijuana myths, and the facts astounded me. The only thing that bothers me is that all my life I've heard that people trace their marijuana with other drugs to make you addicted. Is this true, and if so, how often?
It's called the gateway theory and it has been debunked.

I'm the only one who knows that my classmate is into drugs. I caught him smoking marijuana and he made me promise not tell anyone about it. I'm feeling really guilty. His drug consumption is increasing everyday and I'm scared for him. He might be addicted to it. What am I supposed to do?
Have a heart to heart talk with him and ask if he has a desire to stop but can't. Ask if he'd like to talk to a school counsellor or an organisation or his parents and offer to be by his side if he so wishes.
