I don't smoke. I eat it. But weed is definitely not addictive. When I don't have it it's whatever. I'm not fiending or going through any withdrawal which is what signifies addiction. At most I might think "I wish I had some weed right now" like I wish I had a cold beer or soda on a hot day. It's an enhancement substance doesn't feel like a need. I'm not a daily weed head though. I'm a social user lol.I dont smoke, never have..smokers, would yall be straight if you had to stop for 2 weeks?

Scientists believe cannabis could help prevent and treat coronavirus
By Lee Brown
They have high hopes for a coronavirus breakthrough.
A team of Canadian scientists believes it has found strong strains of cannabis that could help prevent or treat coronavirus infections, according to interviews and a study.
Researchers from the University of Lethbridge said a study in April showed at least 13 cannabis plants were high in CBD that appeared to affect the ACE2 pathways that the bug uses to access the body.
“We were totally stunned at first, and then we were really happy,” one of the researchers, Olga Kovalchuk, told CTV News.
The results, printed in online journal Preprints, indicated hemp extracts high in CBD may help block proteins that provide a “gateway” for COVID-19 to enter host cells.
told the Calgary Herald.
While they stressed that more research was needed, the study gave hope that the cannabis, if proven to modulate the enzyme, “may prove a plausible strategy for decreasing disease susceptibility” as well as “become a useful and safe addition to the treatment of COVID-19 as an adjunct therapy.”
Cannabis could even be used to “develop easy-to-use preventative treatments in the form of mouthwash and throat gargle products,” the study suggested, with a “potential to decrease viral entry” through the mouth.
“The key thing is not that any cannabis you would pick up at the store will do the trick,” Olga told CTV, with the study suggesting just a handful of more than 800 varieties of sativa seemed to help.
All were high in anti-inflammatory CBD — but low in THC, the part that produces the cannabis high.
The study, which has yet to be peer-reviewed, was carried out in partnership with Pathway Rx, a cannabis therapy research company, and Swysh Inc., a cannabinoid-based research company.
The researchers are seeking funding to continue their efforts to support scientific initiatives to address COVID-19.
“While our most effective extracts require further large-scale validation, our study is crucial for the future analysis of the effects of medical cannabis on COVID-19,” the research said.
“Given the current dire and rapidly evolving epidemiological situation, every possible therapeutic opportunity and avenue must be considered.”

If you dosed THC in any capacity, you wouldn't ask this question lol
Being in a state that hasn't legalized yet, I will gladly go months without weed if it means I can't get the kind of weed that I want from who I want. It's never a matter of can someone who uses weed be straight for two weeks...it's more often than not, why in the fukk would they want to? lol
Unless you need a tolerance break (just switch strains) or you just don't feel it's beneficial anymore, the extent of most people's 'withdrawl' symptoms after two weeks is that they'd rather have weed than not have weed while they do stuff and things.

I don’t understand how people can smoke every day. Once or twice a month, maybe but every single day? You’ll need to find a productive hobby.
Weed is 'addictive' in the same way porn is. Yes there is a chemical component but anything beyond what you said here is more along the lines compulsive behavior which can translate to weed, porn, sex, food ect.
Anything to get people back pills I see`
That’s all it is. They don’t want the competition.
Combustion = badwho would have thought inhaling fire would be detrimental to your health in some way.
Thank god for dry herb vape, a zip of shake just for edibles and qi gong.
Exactly, I "retired" from smoking weed, but not from using my dry herb vapes.
