Thanks for posting this Eddie it relates to a recent thread. Im probably going to get flamed for saying this but Im going to say it anyway if you are "addicted" to marijuana or have what you consider to be "withdraws" you are a week ass bitch. Sorry I don't want to offend anybody I just call it like I see it.

A "Friend" of mine ;-) has smoked pot for over 10 years 3 to 5 times a day, recently quit smoking cold turkey and "told" me that he had NO withdraw symptoms at all. "He" hasn't smoked in 4 months just to see how it would be and I think "he's" ready to start puffing again. I do agree that people shouldn't smoke or drink that are young because they are still developing.

I think withdrawal depends on the mental state of the person at the time of quiting, whether voluntary or involuntary.

About 6:47 (sounds like Doug Benson?) saying, "Why aren't we sending people undercover to stop kids from drinking in schools?"

Good point. I know of 2 people from my high school that died in auto accidents from driving around drunk before they were even seniors in high school. None of the pot heads ever had any such problems.

The argument about withdrawal symptoms is all based on the fact that the brain is a powerful effing machine. If your brain is convinced enough that it needs something then it can surely produce physical symptoms. The thing is, and I'm no doctor, that this type of thing points more towards the fact that the individual is weak minded and/or has some sort of mental deficiency to begin with. In that case, it isn't the weed that is to blame, but the state of the individual before he/she ingested this hated substance.

In the same light, and I'm pretty sure Eddie has stated this in the preface to his books, that a lot of stupid and weak people smoke weed. The plant, then, should not be the antagonist. Instead, there should be a conscious effort to work with people like this...educate them and motivate them to progress as individuals instead of blaming a plant. As has been said before, weed has a tendency to magnify who you really are...if you're a moron, chances are you'll be doubly so high, same goes if you're insecure, lazy, etc... The problem here is deficient people, not a 'dangerous drug'

Whats funny is that these anti weed fanatics never mention that you can die from alcohol withdrawl and alcohol poisoning but that shit is perfectly legal. Never heard of anyone dying from not smoking or smoking too much.

Good God Jon! You could chafe a nun's ass rofl. You always brighten my day with the golden nuggs of your sarcasm :-).

[AJ Camacho]

Generally I like Dr. Drew but his perspective of "health" can be bordering on fascist, from time to time. He never seems to grasp that the terms of one's live is dictated by themselves and the any notion of "health" should be relative to what that person wants out of life.

Does pot help with stress?
