I don’t know, and I admit I don’t...

But, I have observed people who do nothing but smoke marijuana from the time they wake at noon, to the time they nod off in the wee hours.

Seems a little more than just a habit.

Cheetos are addictive, pot is a habit. Feel free to substitute snickers bars or tacos for Cheetos. Mars bars are interchangeable with the snickers bars.

I smoked for decades, so I do know. I was just like the person you described. I woke up to a bong hit before I even went to the bathroom, and did a couple hits as I was going to bed. That all changed when I came to the realization that I was financing terrorists. I quit and never looked back when I came to that realization, and had no withdrawal whatsoever. Cigarettes are mildly addicting, but more so a very powerful habit. That was much harder to break, especially since my wife still smokes to this day.

That being said, there was no legal pot when I quit so the pot available today might be more addicting than it was when I imbibed. When it comes to the pot available now, I too do not know. Either way, I now recommend that if you smoke, quit, and if you don't, don't start. I hold the same belief with alcohol, which in my eyes is even more destructive, unless one is a casual drinker who drinks quite rarely.

I used to have a worthless neighbor, who got out of bed each morning...to smoke a joint, and probably smoked at least five more over the rest of the day. He lost all motivation. Was on welfare, and that was his game-plan at age 35.

And you know that when it affects their ability (or desire) to work for a living, the lib @$$hole$ will declare it a disease instead of a behavior, as they did with alcoholism, and put them on the dole at our expense.

We must insist that any legalization or decriminalization contain a ban of any public funds being spent on the results of legalization. Let charity take care of them; those of you who advocate legalization will happily donate, right?

Well as one who smoked from 1971-1984 I can only speak from personal experience that it’s not addictive whatsoever

It’s habit forming though like diet Dr Pepper or sex

Chronic all day use does stymie people no doubt
