Just because it's not addictive in the same way as cocaine or heroin doesn't mean it's not addictive.

It's psychologically addictive, which [potentially] affects every aspect of your life--eating, sleeping, sex, socializing, work, etc

Hell, people get therapy for just living! They get locked away because their own thoughts are too dangerous to themselves and to society.

That's true.

Heh. Guinness just don't do it no more huh? I don't wanna live in a world like this!

I call bullshit..... Show me someone in the last throws of their heroin use before they wink @ the coroner, and then show me someone in the last throws of pot use as they wink @ a bag of cheetos...and then tell me there's and "addiction problem" on both ends. A heroin addict will rob they mamma, stab they brother for a fix....THAT is addiction. The other is some benign phenomena that's kinder than nicotine.

so it's either stabbing your brother or it's nothing then?

You can be addicted to the internet, it doesn't make it as bad as heroin. But it can still ruin your life.

dude,

treatment is runnin $2,500 a month... A MONTH!!!

now i love my kids BUT if one of them asaked me to

pay for their treatment about some weed,

you are right in that they need theropy, but they need it for

reasons other than smokin weed, shit. they whole fam

need theropy for the psychological problems within

that unit. if a kid is bein sent at 16, it's more on the folks

than the kid.

so true, it can lead to consequences.

the addiction is in the behavior (obsession)

and when put in context of whut we were speakin of

it still can be thought of as payin 2500 a month

for someone who pays (at most) 300 a month

on weed and wine

Well, that is a pretty good point. I agree the thing with weed is not so much the substance itself as much as the void in your life that it fills. And I totally agree that it's not on the same level as heroin, but I do think it's addictive.

And $300 a month (I spent more than that) adds up to $2500 pretty quick! If rehab works, it would save you some cash pretty quickly.

point out someone you THINK smokes

$2,500 worth of pot in a month and i'll

tell you if they're still makin music

As disturbing as this is it's no different that folks in poorer countries who would sniff cow dung to get that methane high, if a fix is needed something will be used to get it.

Not that I do it - I'm not a pot smoker (and as far as drugs go, drug free) but I hear people now charge like $30 weekly for weed now or more.

ain't that the truth...

we need to observe our kids and ask them

whut it is they seek when they spin themselves

silly, just to get dizzy, because THIS is the

beginnin of them wantin to change their consciousness.

and we don't do anything but re-enforce the thought

that "this is good" when we see this and spin them

harder...

i'm lucky

i have a pothead among my three

and they know how i lived and rose above it.

but whut the news of this says to me is

we must be vigilent and take note of whut

our BABIES, not kids, BABIES are doin

and quit waitin for someone else to tell

us that there is a prollum...

OK... um yeah... damn.

That is just dumb and so is drinking hand sanitizer.

What teenagers? Where? Not here.

There were many addicts in my family tree as well, some have made it out and others didn't. Life is bitch and three quarters to deal with and most have a fix to feed, mine's the bottle and can. It's not too drastic but I should lay off if I don't want to end up like my father ( R.I.P ).
