There has been a lot of talk lately about Marijuana, and if it really is addicting. There are a lot of battles going on about physical addiction etc, but let’s talk about “Psychological addiction”.
here’s a good question. Why do I use Marijuana? Perhaps to “relax” me, maybe to let down my defenses and make me feel more social. Maybe it’s a “coping” tool, that I self medicate with so I can deal with the stresses in life.
How about if I quit cold turkey? Would I be able to quit cold turkey tomorrow and never “need” it again. I think the trigger word there is “need”. If we find ourselves actually “needing” something to function and or escape, it is a dependency. Thus, the “psychological addiction” of Marijuana.
Ask yourself if you really need the grass, and if you could stop it tomorrow? stay well and God Bless…
