Pot Habit

Answered by Donald McCoy, LPC NCC

Question

How can I tell if I am addicted to marijuana or if it is just a habit? I smoke everyday and but I’ve never seriously tried to quit because invariably at least one of my roommates will offer me a joint at least a few times per day and it is just too easy to smoke here.

Do you find that smokiong is negatively affect any part pof ypour life?

Are you feeling like you need to quit?

Is smoking keeping you from doing what you want or need to do?

If you answer yes to any one of these, yes you have a habit and addiction.

I won't get into the legality issue.

I hope this helps...

Don
