I think these kids need a therapist...they just smoke it to hide and mask their problems. I smoke pot and I am NOT addicted. I'm more addicted to my cigarettes than anything LOL. I have depression and anxiety disorders and Borderline Personality Disorder and I take meds for it. I don't mask it with pot.

the brain is a powerfull thing and mentally being addicted is worse then being physically addicted trust me the brain can go so far if you let it and will even experience physical symptoms.

Christine (4/10/2013 12:08:52 PM)

It depends on the person. I know people that smoke a couple times a week and can function in day to day life. They have jobs, hobbies, relationships. Their smoking doesn't consume their lives. I think when it gets to the point that you can't function, that's when you have a problem with it. For me personally, I stopped, dealt with the underlying issues mentally and emotionally and am in a better place today for having dealt with "the skeletons in my closet" so to speak. But I am pro-weed and all for legalizing it.

Damn!! I didnt know that weed addicting.. Im glad I dnt smoke weed and never plan on doing it..!!!

The majority of medicines prescribed do not cure anything they just treat symptoms. The medicines that docs prescribe for AmyBs problem ptsd often come with harsh side effects and can even make things worse.

Josh (2/1/2013 7:28:30 PM)

that mold thing is so ridiculous the rate dealers go through weed is crazy if you smoke brick weed (mostly lower quality bud compressed to transport and store more easily) then its possible that it can grow mold but the likeliness of it growing is slim. also the harmful effects would be negligible because of combustion.

Josh (2/1/2013 7:21:48 PM)

That is badass i could see it almost seemed like they were putting words in your mouth speak up girl be heard.

I wasn't gonna post anything on here, but after reading your comment I feel that I have to. 000a000aWeed is not PHYSICALLY addictive. It CAN be MENTALLY addictive. Everybody is different, and some people will take it too far. Just because you like it doesn't mean you should go around acting like it's impossible to go wrong with it. 000a000aJust think about it. There's nothing in food that MAKES it addictive, besides the fact we need it to survive. Then why is it there are people who have made a lifestyle out of over-eating? They're addicted to food. It's mental, it's all in their heads, but they are STILL ADDICTED. I don't understand how that is, but I am not them.000a000aI'm also gonna add that I personally smoke 2-3 times a week. It helps me unwind, and I enjoy it. So I know where I'm coming from with this.

Meghan (1/24/2013 6:26:42 PM)

snitch!!!

Christopher (1/24/2013 5:47:51 AM)

thats so dumb. think of what your saying! Please go research what addiction is before putting foolish statements like that out.

V (1/20/2013 2:34:55 PM)

Everything can be addictive. You can be addicted to hurting yourself or eating carrots. I've nothing against people using marihuana, but even if it doesn't have any "addictive ingredients", people can be addicted to the feeling it gives them.

Amybeth (1/15/2013 4:12:41 PM)

each person is an INDIVIDUAL and handles things differently. In the past i have done heroin, cocaine, meth, etc. and did not get addicted or dependent... I have been smoking weed since i was 12, (over 8 years now) and it wasnt until the LAST YEAR that i smoked enough to be qualified as "addicted". The label of "addiction" was given to me by MTV not myself or any specific doctor, i struggled with using the label and still dont believe that is an accurate representation of what was going on.. my personal opinion on marijuana was never expressed in this episode, i have no problem with it, i too see it as a medication less as a drug. MTV has used propaganda to make it seem like weed and only weed destroyed my life and therefore i hate it. neither of those statements are true. I have my completely separate issues and opinions in my own life that were never shown here. They filmed me off and on for the course of 9 months, and they had to throw together the most dramatic/manipulative parts to give you guys "entertainment". NOTHING about this episode accurately represents who i am as a person or how i live my own life.

Amybeth (1/15/2013 4:04:54 PM)

atleast someone gets it... im the girl on the episode and if anything weed was helping me.

Nycole (1/1/2013 4:21:19 PM)

I have the same suspicion . I am on Medical Marijuana and don't smoke as much as these people and I must say that it has helped me so much. I was on many different prescription drugs and pain pills and have had to be on even more to help with the side effects of just 1 pill. I think this is all assed backwards, Marijuana has NO DEATHS yet cigarettes, alcohol and prescription drugs has led to thousands of deaths, now why can't we make all of that illegal, I think the world would be a better and safer place. I suffer from multiple issues that cause pain, depression, anxiety and more and it helps a lot.

Nycole (1/1/2013 4:16:30 PM)

I am not saying you are wrong or lying but you cannot have cannabis withdrawal, either you were on some other drug or there was something wrong with the batch you got. I have to agree that weed does make you crave some bad food but there are smokers out there like me who crave fruit and as weird as it sounds Chinese take out (preferably shrimp with mixed veggies and brown sauce) lol., I don't consider weed a drug as it does help with a lot of things, and helps people fighting aids, chronic pain, severe anxiety and more. It also all depends on the strain you are smoking, if anything you must have been smoking a laced strain of weed if you had experienced this. I tell everyone be careful who you buy from and what strain you get, and don't be afraid to ask questions. I am very sorry to hear what you went through and that you made a good choice to stop smoking. I hope you are well =)

Nycole (1/1/2013 4:07:18 PM)

Sorry to prove your point a little inaccurate it all depends on where you get it, if it's a grower that does not take care of the plants then yes it can be bad if it grows mold, but that is rare. There has been zero deaths or complications due to smoking weed, the only reason it's demonized and the gvt keeps the public ignorant is because they loose money, corporate greed is the only thing keeping it illegal. If it were harmful then 2 states would not have made it legal and there would not be such a push to make Marijuana a medical medicine.

Katie (12/7/2012 3:15:18 PM)

To prove your point wrong wendik, weed actually can potentially be bad for you especially if it's street weed. It has a mold on it that can damage your body...
