  5. Am I addicted to weed?
Asked: 2018-05-03 08:52:46
I started smoking weed to help me sleep. I've been doing it for the past 3 months and I noticed that I have started smoking it more often because it helps me to relieve stress whenever I get home from work. I'm worried that I am now addicted.

I dont think you can be addicted to weed. I mean ive seen how to quit weed pages. But weed isnt addicting, its a medicine, its a weed, it grows from the ground. Can you be addicted to coffee or tea. Well I guess you can be addicted. Now that I think about it mom would drink coffee all day everyday, she had to have it, even over food. She was addicted to coffee.

I researched this subject a lot right after I researched suggested punishments when you catch your kids doing drugs. I caught my 14 year old smoking pot in the garage and I needed to know how to quit weed and if it was addictive? The best answer I could find was on this site it says you can get grumpy and lose sleep if you try to quit and just be all around restless. So some people remain high so they dont have to feel those things. I dont really see this as an addiction so I cant say that I believe you or my son, or anyone for that matter can be addicted to weed.

Yes you can become addicted to weed just like you can any substance or act. I think its more of a psychological addiction though. You dont go into physical withdrawals or anything cause you dont have weed. But you can have the munchies from smoking pot. I dont really get the munchies from edibles.

I wouldnt say that I have a weed addiction but I could tell you that I smoke a lot of weed. The national Institute on Drug abuse says weed can lead to the development of problem use, known as a marijuana use disorder, which takes the form of addiction in severe cases. Data suggest that 30 percent of those who use marujuana may have some degree of marijuana use disorder. So im gonna have to say no, you are most likely not addicted to weed.

I'm in recovery from weed addiction and initially I didn’t think smoking pot every day was a problem. Then my tolerance increased and I eventually didn't want to function without it. I actually was addicted to weed and needed help.

You could be addicted to weed, especially of you are smoking to escape from the 'real world' so to speak.

I found this clip on that explains how many young adults can have a weed dependency and the many symptoms one can have from stoping weed use. I think it would be a helpful clip for you to watch and compare some of the signs and symptoms of addiction and you can probably an-swer that question for yourself.
