Yeah, I’m probably addicted to cannabis. That doesn’t particularly bother me, as it doesn’t negatively impact my life. I keep it to nights and weekends, and I don’t spend more on it than I can afford. I honestly have a much harder time quitting coffee than I do cannabis. If I go on vacation, I never have a problem leaving my weed at home, but I’ll be damned if I don’t have my caffeine. And that doesn’t seem to be a particularly harmful addiction either.

    Pretty sure that means that it by definition isn't an addiction but rather a benign dependence 🤷

    Good luck explaining that to most people. I've had a cannabis dependence for years now, and I get called an addict by certain members of my family, even though I've held a job longer than most of them were in school. I partake everyday, but the boss doesn't care/suspect anything and my output meets/exceeds expectations, so they're happy with me.

    Lucky. I can't sleep without weed, so if I'm going on vacation, it has to be to a place with legalization.

  • Yeah, that does suck. I do struggle a bit to fall asleep the first few nights without it, since I’m used to having a bowl before bed, but the thing that really gets me is how crazy vivid my dreams are when I’m taking a break. I’m prone to night terrors too, so it’s a bit of a roll of the dice on what those dreams are gonna be like
