there is a bit of a physical dependency w/ tobacco, but its gone after 2-3 days, the rest is mental, kicking that addiction.
MJ addiction is purely psychological.
so when did they deem inhaling smoke of any kind as good for you? i think they are all equally bad for you physically and psychologically. doesnt matter if its a physical or a mental addiction, its still an addiction. my dad has smoked pot for longer than ive been alive. he was told last year to quit or die. id say that was a long term medical problem with pot there. theres so much BS tossed around about pot on both sides its ridiculous. no, its not as harmful as tobacco. no, its not actually good for you. we can all agree alcohol is bad for you, drink too much in one night and youll die of alcohol poisoning. drink enough and drive poorly, kill yourself and maybe others. smoke pot and go driving, SAME DEAL. maybe kill yourself or others. it DOES slow you down, it DOES affect your judgment. yes, i was a pot smoker for a lot of years. i have kids, and i dont want them to start it at all. they have seen the aftereffects first hand of all 3 (as well as a healthy mix of coke and crackheads), and its not a very pretty sight. just stop pretending pot is good for you and actually does things for you.
Just because you don't like it MJ doesnt mean it doesn't have it's benefits. I know of not one person who's crashed a car while high. I know more than I can count on two hands who have crashed while drunk, some killing themselves...luckily no1 else. Any type of chronic smoking is going to cause health problems, duh. MJ does have medical uses, and if it were not tested for at my job I'd be using it to alleviate pain and nausea. Everything in moderation...which is a subjective term
🙂
EDIT: Those who think that 2nd smoke research is BS, get a clue. Not a living person should be regularly ingesting what they put in those things. I have no problem with fresh leaf tobacco being rolled and smoked, but those premade cigs are ******, and cause everyone around you problems.
