Yes!.
Our body has chemical receptors all over it!. These receptors are responsible for how we function, feel, and perhaps think!. Marijuana causes chemical changes in the body's receptors which eventually make the body produce less of those chemicals on it's own since the pot is producing it (think GABA and other such chemicals)!. When the smoking is lessened or stopped, the body is still dependent on the pot for "help" with the receptors, and the natural chemicals aren't produced as much or as well!. This leads to a state of addiction!.
There is another powerful side of addiction that is psychological!. This can be as hard, or harder, to overcome as physical addiction!.
Marijuana has its medical uses which can be very helpful, but like any other drug, there are side effects and addiction issues, so the benefits must outweigh the negatives for the patient!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think the addictiveness of pot is relative to the person doing it, just like alcohol!. I've heard lots of people say "well, if it's not addictive, then stop smoking it" which is usually responded to with "I would but I don't need to or want to"!. So people think that automatically means you're addicted!. I think it depends on how its affecting your life!.
It's like if you eat ice cream every single night and someone tells you they think you have a problem and that you should stop, but you think its nonsense and tell them that you could stop if you wanted to but there's really no reason to!. Does that mean you have a problem eating ice cream!?
I think, just like with pot, alcohol, or ice cream it depends on how it's affecting your life!. If you're a diabetic and it's directly effecting your health or if eating ice cream gets you extremely hyper and you start affecting those around you then you should definitely stop!. But if that person is telling you to stop only because they personally don't like ice cream and watching you eat it every night annoys them, but other than that there is no affect on your life by doing so, then you eating ice cream is your business and no one should be able to tell you you have to stop!.
I do also have this to say about pot!. People die every day from every other single kind of drug every single day!. Pot does not have those kinds of statistics, if any at all, and, aside from all that, it has very strong medicinal qualities for people with chronic illness and pain without dire side effects!. You can't even say that about most prescription drugs!. Yet people are more than willing to demonize pot!.
If you use it responsibly and don't abuse it, by all means, be my guest!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You really should not look at YahooAnswers to get the facts! All people do will just lie to you based on there opinions!. As for me Ive experienced and have done the research from people, books, articles, and the internet!. And no Marijuana is not physically addictive! Habit forming yes, but addictive no!Www@Answer-Health@Com
It is only "addicting" in the sense that everything in life that is enjoyable, you want to do again!. It IS NOT PHYSICALLY ADDICTING!. Do not let ignorant people tell you otherwise!. It produces Cannabinoids in the brain, BUT your brain already produces them, it only increases the amount, if you stop smoking, it simple goes back to normal!. It does not replace chemicals in your brain like heroin and such!. Now, of course potheads always want more, but of course they do!. I do yoga every morning, and on days when I am busy and I don't have time, I miss it and plan on a time when I can do it again!. But you wouldn't say I'm "addicted"!. Why!? Because you know it isn't possible, you just miss it when you can't do it because it is something you enjoy!. Same thing with Cannabis!. And I am not making this up, I am in nursing school and also a cannabis user!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not physically!. No one has recordedly had physical withdrawals from marijuana!. A high dependency on it though can create a psychologial addiction, where you're mind makes you think you want it!. All in all, caffine can be compared as a horrible drug to marijuana beacuse it has physical addictions!. Marijuana also has caused no deaths!. It may have impared vison and you might have crashed!. But no one can overdose on marijuana!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It can become a habit, yes!. The main indicator is to see if using it causes relationship, financial, legal, health and/or social problems!. If it doesn't, no problem!. If it does the person using it has to make a decision - is continued use really worth the pay off!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
