How does it feel & How do you know if you're addicted to something?

I'm just wondering what does it feel like if you're addicted to something? I mean, for example if I kept myself busy throughout the day, I would have no urge in smoking at all. I usually smoke at night, but sometimes I think I am addicted because I smoke every night. But what makes me think I'm not, is that during the day I don't crave to smoke or care to smoke if I keep myself busy. Of course if it's my day off and I'm just bored as hell I'll take a few tokes.

But if you're addicted to something, wouldn't you crave it no matter if you're busy or not? This can even be with Alcohol too, I used to think I was addicted to Alcohol because I drank every day until I quit cold turkey and now I haven't drank alcohol in like 2 months. So maybe I just never was addicted and it was all in my mind. So my question is how do you feel and know when you're addicted to something?

 

It is all in your mind.
The mind is the greatest tool.

 

This is correct.

 

if you need something to feel normal, physically.

like people say when they can't eat or sleep or get hard or whatever unless they smoke before.

yea that's addicted.

something you are not my friend.

 

Addiction is both mental and physical and most people will agree mental addiction is by far harder then physical addiction, just ask anyone who smokes cigarettes. Being addicted doesn't mean you crave it 24/7, what are we all raging crackheads?

Honestly most people who smoke daily probably do have a minor psychological addiction to weed whether they want to admit it or not, and physical for that matter too.

 

if you try to not smoke weed, but it feels to wierd without it, then you're probably addicted.

 

I am 100% addicted to marijuana and I wouldn't have it any other way :sifone:

But really you aren't addicted, you just like smoking, no harm in that lol. Don't view it as getting addicted to pot, think of it as just having more fun than everyone else ALL the time

 

I don't feel weird when I am out of weed, sure when I don 't have it I miss it, but their is more then just getting high for me their is

 

If you smoke weed there's no question, you are an addict. Even after one time of using
Rehab and jail is the only answer

 

I love weed.
I dont think im addicted to it though....

 

LoL If that's the case, then I'm proud to be an addict!

Better than being addicted to Cigarettes, imo.

 

Your only an addict if you feel you have a problem...I smoke everyday and drink most days and on the days off from them I might dabble in a few other substances I know I could, and have done, easily stop at anytime so Im happy to just keep abusing my body for the time being

 

true that
