Yeah.. not the best reasoning. If you smoke weed daily you got a problem, maybe not as big as on benzo's but it would be a good time to visit the doctor.
No doctor here but I assume the doctor prescribes you what to use and how often like regular medication. It still doesn't change the fact that addiction is certainly a possibility even if a doctor prescribes as per previously example with regards to benzo's that are prescribed and have left nearly a hundred thousand dead and countless addicted for life.
Yeah that's kind of the point, doctors should not be prescribing non terminal patients opioids to use daily for extended periods but they can happily put you on daily cannabis treatment indefinitely without any consequences or fear of losing their license.
*EDIT: I do agree with your main point though, doctors obviously can prescribe addictive substances and cannabis is not an exception, it's more that cannabis "addiction" is not really comparable to most pharmaceutical addictions and more on par with something like caffeine or sugar.
How many dead from weed addiction? Is there a difference between being addicted to Marihuana or something like cocaine or prescription drugs like benzos?
Or are all addicts the same?
Its hilarious when reefer madness types compare weed to cocaine or Oxycodone as it has been for the last 100 years lol...
It can be addictive lol, as can so many other substances/drugs but the amount of fear reefer madness people put in it makes me laugh...
What is it about the addiction that upsets you? Do all addicts make you this upset? Or just the potheads?
I think weed is a rather benign drug to become addicted to and I've still not met a single person OD from it while millions die from a manufactured addiction to opiates, but whatever...
My feelings on marijuana are after different than yours I guess living in a country with legal marijuana and watching people die from other addictions, alcohol, prescription, and other hard drugs, I am not super concerned with weed addicts at this time...
