I thought you were writing that if a person is addicted to something that by itself contains no addictive quality that cannot be an "addiction". Or called a "disease"(i.e. an addiction to key lime pie). My point is it doesn't matter if for whatever reason a person cannot rid himself of a habit that substantially impacts his life in a negative way he needs to be treated for the "addiction". So even assuming for argument that pot by itself is not addictive -if a person for whatever reason cannot stop consuming it notwithstanding his desire to do so and that is affecting his life then its important for that person to get treatment. It doesn't matter to me if a person is addicted to something-mentally or physically or both-if that addiction is causing him emotional or physical pain that has a profound impact on his ability to live that he should be treated no different than if he had a "disease". I think we can agree on that-right?
