My brother is definitely addicted. He smokes to calm himself down, but is just as angry, if not more, after. He's been smoking so much for so long that he can't even imagine what it's like without it.

maybe he's angry for other reasons and the weed is a coping mchanism, like all addictions that people have in a toxic system

Hey!!! Listen here you... I've been smoking weed since 1998 and I can stop anytime I want!

The only point of saying weed is not addictive is to say you can quit with no negative repurcussions.

Now, if you become dependant on it for one reason or another, that's addiction.

I thought this shit was left at reddit

I acknowledge I'm addicted. I smoke every day, but it doesn't have any negative effects on my life. I guess I'm a "productive stoner type" and the same can't be said for everyone but in general I think it makes my life better.

I mean, everybody has a vice, for me it's my phone and social media, I habitually check it every 5 or so minutes, it is an addiction but at least it isn't physically damaging like cigarettes

Not getting enough exercise because you are checking every 5 minutes is physically damaging. Not saying its you but, its some people. I dont get enough because im addicted to getting things done. Which i feel is a good addiction as far as they go. But that problem does need solving.

Because it helps me focus during tasks and let's me vibe when I need to relax.
