yea if you do it that much per week. I would try to slow down and get off it. I mean it is illegal and can cost alot of $ $ … it burns many brain cells and makes you forget things. Only know this because I used to do it alot but not anymore Iam clean now :o)

Goodluck!

Marijuana isn’t defined as what’s known as ‘habit forming’. It’s mildly psycologically addictive, but not physically addictive.

In other words, if you decide to stop smoking it, you won’t have any cravings or withdrawal symptoms. The reason why you crave joints is for the physcological pleasure you associate with smoking it. You like getting stoned.

It makes sense, even when you feel you are really ‘addicted’. You’re actually just getting into the habit of getting stoned.
When I smoke weed, I smoke lots of it frequently for extended periods (2-3 months). But if I decide to stop doing it altogether for a while because I have work to do or exams are coming up, I stop completely for about the same period of time. Once you accept the decision yourself, you’re fine without it, the habitual sequence being broken. you don’t crave a spliff in the same way as you would a cigarette.
