This is a subject I have in depth knowledge of. If you look at the research it has been scientifically proved that cannabis is physically addictive & withdrawal effects are experienced. These can vary in strength.

On a personal note - I used large amounts of drugs for 17 years - alcoholic drinking; heavy cannabis smoking, a lot of use of exsatcy, speed, ketamine, LSD & magic mushrooms as well as others. I also had a daily cocaine sniffing habit for many years. I smoked crack & heroin on occasion as well. In my experience the hardest drug to stop was cannabis. I finally had to seek help with 12 step fellowships to get off it. I have know many people whose primary addiction is cannabis. As a potential for causing psychosis - cannabis is on a par with crack cocaine - especially the stronger varieties.

I am not saying that many people cannot take or leave cannabis; & in fact for many people cannabis usage is not a major problem. For me it was; & cannabis can be extremely damaging to those with or prone to MH "problems".

Don't kid yoursleves.
