    "So, the weed, chocolate, gambling etc. etc addiction is more of a matter of the patients fixation"

    look, whatever you say i'm going to trust my psychology course over it. the textbooks agree with me, i'm only repeating what i've been taught, i've asked my psychology teacher and she says weed is psychologically addictive. maybe psychological addiction merely is a persons fixation on a certain thing/behaviour, however it is still classed as a psychological addiction, thus allowing me to call people weed addicts, thus eliminating the need for an argument anymore as i've shown my posts are valid and your criticisms were invalid.

    Textbooks are full of lies and brainwash.


    Seriously, I've read more factual information on a popsicle stick.


    Textbooks are only used as a means of integrating people into this god-forsaken society, and so they won't be revolted with what is actually going on.


    Epic fail.

    And, it is clear to me (and it has been since your earliest posts) that you are a close-minded individual, not willing to look at both sides of the story, only the one that you deem as "valid."

    So, there really is no point in arguing with you.


    Its an exercise in futility.




    I hope you may soon open up your mind, for there are many exciting possibilities, if you only explore them.

    Me before weed: depressed, suicidal, horribly unhappy, lazy, dependent on everyone.
    Me after weed: finding happiness, hopeful of the future, motivated. I have goals in life now, I didn't have that before I started smoking.

    I think I'll stick with Mary, thanks.

    as i've said multiple times i smoke weed every day.

    i've also done multiple benzos, opiates, shrooms, acid, k, MDMA, speed, nitrous, etc.


    drew i've looked at his side and it's not really in disagreement with what i say, if he sees psychological addiction as nothing but a person having a fixation on a certain thing then i'm fine with that, it's a valid opinion, but it still doesn't actually go against what i'm saying; psychological addiction could be defined like that but it is still called a psychological addiction.

    and you're not arguing with me, you're trying to say that all psychological professionals are wrong because textbooks are full of lies. want to show any proof? that's a ridiculous notion and i compeltely disagree with your opinion on textbooks, maybe that's the case in your country but i'm not american. our text is objective.

    Cannabis IS psychologically addictive, as is chocolate, tv, sex etc. Cannabis is NOT physically addictive, like nicotine, alcohol, caffeine etc. All it takes is will power, there's no hang overs, cannabis is the safest 'drug' known to mankind, safer then aspirin. It is physically impossible to overdose on cannabis, one would have to smoke 40 times their own body weight in 1 hour, you would fall asleep before you got anywhere close, not to mention the auto titration. How many people die a year from sole cannabis use? 0 How many die from LEGAL drugs such as alchol and tobacco? Hundreds of thousands. End of, cannabis should be legal and one day these right wing cunts will die and logic will prevail.

    bro, who CARESSSS if chocolate is psychologically addictive if MOST chocolate addicts can still maintain the rest of their life, whereas MOST 'addict' stoners end up shaping their whole lifestyles around it?? (though they still might be able to maintain a 'typical' lifestyle.. not something to look forward to)

    weed IS addictive and I will keep giving my point because as I get older I see more and more the way that weed is addictive and can change aperson's life EVEN IF it can be changed by will power.

    the thing people have to realise (especially teenagers)
    is that will power is not an easy game for the typical human being. the typical human being barely makes any intelligent choices on their own behalf. that is why we have 'proffesional' positions for almost every element of life. but 'optimal' humans can actually be completely self sufficient in this age of total information availability.

    I mean.. people can put up with pain. therefor no addiction is impossible to get over.

    THEREFOR neither physical nor psychological addictions are necessarily addictive.

    thereFOR both physical and psychological addictions have SOME rate of addiction amongst the population.

    and thus there is no -logical- reasoning that can say that you cant be addicted to weed

    ps... btw... the point, that I have seen, and accepted.. is that it doesnt matter if weed is addictive. because plenty of addictive items are legal. addiction.. is part of human life. which is why it is fine to keep smokin, y'all.

    as long as you are reasonable and realise that it can affect your whole lifestyle if you chose to get high all the time instead of doing the range of things that other people do (and yeh, you can smoke weed and have a normal life.. but how many people do? and how many of them smoke weed every week as opposed to every day? HUGE difference)

    Because look where you've posted this! I already stated this before, but you didn't seem to understand. You can't post something that states a specific substance is addictive in a forum that is dedicated to its use and not expect heavy resistance, whither it be logically or illogically dictated. This has just turned in to pointless bickering.

    Anyone who is not willing to acknowledge that weed has the capabilities of becoming psychologically addictive in even the slightest bit is simply fooling themselves, perhaps unwillingly, but most likely willingly. It just makes no sense to me as to why you are continuing to argue with people.....there should be no argument involved. Most those who have initiated an argument with you do so originally by implying that they are not addicted, assuming that this statement somehow means everyone that uses is an addict. That's not at all what Dave is trying to imply. However Dave if you truly possessed this factually based logic you speak of you'd never have taken this pointless argument this far in the first place.

    i took the argument so far because i enjoy arguing. rather than pointlessly pick an argument irl i can attempt to educate whilst arguing, hopefully some people learnt (and will learn) from this topic.

    "cannabis is the safest 'drug' known to mankind, "

    potentially it is very safe, if consumed through food/vaporisers, however smoked cannabis is bad for your lungs, can lead to lung diseases (just to clarify: i'm not saying it causes lung cancer).

    Arguing can be good, as long as one party wouldn't reside in an argument in calling the other sad. :D No wonder you don't enjoy arguments.

    arguing is good if theres points to be made, but this guy is just arguing for the sake of it and trying to get a rise out of people. at least now he is. this thread should die.

    no i'm not, i'm just pointing out things people say that are incorrect and then correcting them. if i was trying to get a rise out of people i would call them sad and then not make any points. i would also put a lot less effort into showing people why they are wrong if i was simply trying to wind people up.
