It's ok to smoke pot. It's not ok to be a pothead.
However 95% of people who smoke pot are potheads. In the illegal states its closer to 99.999%
Their life revolves around it. They can't do anything without it.
Take it away from them and they go thru withdrawl.
They call you up wanting some even tho you quit a decade ago.
And they never noticed. Because they're potheads.
Pot lowers IQ.
And testosterone.
People can get antsy without pot, but it's not withdrawal in the medical sense. It's also not nearly as bad as withdrawal from other things. In fact, it's quite manageable; even enjoyable.
I would call it highly variable from person to person. I've seen people goto some crazy lengths to get high when they're out.
Especially in the ~18-28 age bracket. People with some money and means and no weed can get almost manic crazy.
Go places and do things they would never ever do if it involves the promise of maybe getting weed.
Well, that's nutty, but it's nothing like coming off heroin or even alcohol if you imbibe enough of it. You can die from either of those things.
