In a few states. The science has proven there is no physical addiction to THC.
I smoked tons of weed when I was younger. I sold a ton of it in High School, in fact if you asked people in the school who were the 5 biggest pot sellers I'd make a lot of the lists. Lots of us smoked lots of pot then just stopped.
There is a funny story about why I stopped and if you want to hear it I'll post it, it's actually funny as he11.
Ahhhhh what the heck I'll just tell you.
I was in my mid 20's, doing OK for myself and me another guy from where I worked had a pretty nice apartment, nice furniture and stereo and TV. One time on a day off I got out of the shower, wrapped a towel around myself and sat on the couch and took a few hits, maybe more than a few. It was really good weed, I always had access to good pot for some reason. I got high and I grabbed the remote, cable was kind of still in it's infancy so having 100 channels of crap was one of the greatest things ever back then. Hours later I found myself sitting on the sofa, wrapped up in a wet towel, dried "shower" hair which is like dried pool hair hahaha and I was freaking starving. I was kinda pizzed at myself because I had wanted to go to a museum that day to see a particular exhibition. I decided I didn't need to waste any more time getting high. I gave the weed to my room mate who was very appreciative and didn't smoke weed again until a vacation in Jamaica many years later.
I know people who give me gummies sometimes because they have them around, and I have a chunk of "magical butter" from the Magical Butter machine that is so famous.Here and there I might have some.
The difference is that what you did and what I did is the SAME THING
anyone can do. There is no physical addiction. You can just stop. Gordon can too. He just doesn't want to do it. Maybe eventuially he will, he can do it this very moment if he wants to.
