#14 Marijuana!?!? The funny thing is that the withdrawal symptoms (nausea, insomnia and irritability) are the things that marijuana is the most effective at counteracting in sick people. Has anyone on here ever met someone who was "addicted" to MJ? I've known many people who enjoy using it regularly but never one that seemed addicted (and you would be surprised how many PhDs and scientists are regular users). Most addictive substances "pull" at you to use them again. MJ just doesn't have that effect.
