Marijuana Addiction Forum


Marijuana has shown to be effective in a number of medical applications in recent years, including treating chronic pain and AIDS wasting; it is often labeled as a ‘gateway’ drug into other drugs; for many years a number of groups have been campaigning to make it legal in the US, for a variety of reasons.


These issues tend to get drawn into the debate over whether or not it is addictive. This is unfortunate because, with regard to marijuana’s potential for abuse, these issues are immaterial and they unnecessarily create confusion and uncertainty for those people who otherwise might readily seek help if they or someone they know is struggling with a dependence on, or an addiction to, marijuana.
