I am asking because a judge on TV claimed that marihuana isn’t addictive, rather it is a paychological addiction. Also, I am under the impression that a human being can create addiction to anything, it does not necessarily have to be a substance.

yes….and you are right. We can create addictions to anything.
I’m addicted to Yahoo Answers. Gotta replace one addiction with another I always say.
yes
I don’t consider marajuana to be physically addictive at all. A person feels no withdrawl symptoms from chronic marajuana use, though it does affect sleep patterns, and short term memory to a lesser degree.
i think its all in peoples heads its a freakin herb
the only physically addicting part is the nicotine
i agree completely. some people are addicted to sex, others to chocolate. it’s doesn’t have to be a drug or have anything dangerous in it.
I’d believe it.Like w/ cigarettes after your body has the nicotine out of your system u still want a cigarette. You crave the feelings it brought u
Weak personality traits contribute to one’s destiny to become addicted to anything. Marijuana is not addictive. At least not physically. If you have a weak mind, you may think you are addicted but since there is no onset of physical symptoms upon cessation of using it, there is no physical addiction, only mental.
Good question and a lot of good answers. It’s not addictive and it’s not harmful where as alcohol and nicotine both are and they are both legal. Once again we have the dumb politicians running the show who don’t listen to Doctors.
Well I know one thing if its a drug its addictive. If it changes the way you feel then that is a drug. and if it makes you want more to get that feel again then its addictive… No matter what people claim pot is pot and its illegal mostly everywhere. I would hate to be hooked on drugs of any kind period. I know someone that has recently started smoking this stuff and now he does it everyday and can’t stop, right he can’t stop…!!!!!! so what does that mean…he’s addicted…not good!
Marijuana is psychologically addictive. And no, it is not just weak minds that get addictive behaviors thrust upon them. We truly do not know all the factors. Some say it is the lack of serotonin or the lack of serotonin receptor sites. No one seems sure.
What we do know is that very intelligent people can get addicted to many different things. Yes, even to Yahoo Answers.
Marijuana has no nicotine and does not seem to cause an increase in lung cancer (study just came out two weeks ago) however, other inhalation problems like chronic bronchitis may be associated with longterm use. I do know that people who are stoned all the time, and those who use tend to use most of their free time, seem not to accomplish much.
I doubt that I could write or do the photography that I do if I smoked dope. I certainly would lose my job. My clearance at a nuclear power plant demands me being clean and sober. If an accident were to occur, my job is to go out to the Emergency Center and calculate the release rate and advise folks on evacuation routes. Not a job for someone doing ganja.
I know folks who drift along in life, quite happy as long as they can smoke some dope. I do not think they are bad or evil. They do not rob folks, they don’t beat folks up. I have not even seen them get in car accidents. I wish them well. They do spend a lot of time trying to get dope, though, and risk their wellbeing (and jail time) in getting it.
I try to stay clear of gambling halls, myself. *grin* I teach statistics. And yes, I play the stock market. *sigh*
