  • I’m just talking about my own experience. I also enjoy cannabis, almost exclusively via edibles, and consume it most days, but I also find it pretty effortless to take breaks, even significant months-long ones.

    I think I just don’t have an “addictive personality” or whatever. I enjoy a good vice, but I’ve never experienced dependency. Even drinking enough to get “drunk”, or drinking multiple days in a row feels bad to me, even if I do like an occasional buzz.

    Junk food is nasty to me. I eat it like twice a year and always regret it. Never done opiates, but I do understand that they’re a whole lot more addictive than other drugs, so I don’t think that even if I did understand what that felt like that it would inform me much about nicotine addiction. Given that opiates are downers and nicotine is an upper, I don’t know that they are really comparable.


  • I actually enjoy a good cigarette, but I still don’t understand how folks get addicted. Smoking more than one in a single day always makes me feel like shit. Even just one cigarette and I feel like I need to take a shower. I smoke a cigarette now and then for fun, and couldn’t imagine doing more.

    I smoke like a pack a year. I keep it in a Ziploc bag in the fridge to keep them fresh. Been doing this for about 19 years…
