| the only reason they say its not addictive is because there is no withdrawal but you can get addicted to being high and you can get anxiety and other common problems when you quit but the symptoms are usually gone within 48hours of not smoking and you gotta be a pretty heavy pothead to even get any of the symptoms.

Weed. Is. Fucking. Addictive.
There ARE withdrawl symptoms... both physical and psycological.
I've smoked on a very, very consistent, daily basis for the past 4 years... recently I've been out of a job and have had trouble getting the money to buy it.
The withdrawls don't just last 48 hours... I don't think I've gone a full 48 hours without any weed (more than once or twice in 4 years), mainly because I'm not able to. After about a day, the withdrawl gets really bad and I start being mean to my friends, and extremely mean to people I don't like. I get anxiety of course, but mainly, I just feel really, really bad.
If you've done ecstasy before, you know how good that can feel, if you haven't, it feels reallllllly good and happy... perfect, basically. The best way to describe what it's like to withdrawl from weed is that it is the OPPOSITE of ecstasy lol...
You'll never stop wanting it, either. If you can manage to go maybe a few weeks or months, you wont constantly fee like shit anymore. But usually you can only make it a day or two, and as soon as you satisfy your craving after going a "long" (day or two) time, you'll become "normal" again and suddenly realize how mean and stupid you've been to everyone because of your withdrawl, and start to apologize (then of course, after smoking you go another 12-24 hours without it and you'll turn into an asshole again).
Don't get me wrong though, I don't suggest you avoid weed. It has many, many benefits and it's up to you to decide if it's worth it... it is for some people. Weed has never ever killed anyone, so health is definitely no concern. Basically, if you can grow your own or get it for super cheap, then it's definitely something you should try if you are at all curious, because the only downside is when you start to withdrawl and can't get anymore.
Btw feel free to ask any other questions because I am a 420 genius lol

Well if it applies to most drugs, my dad used to be a junkie for most every drug, he went into rehab, he said the first month, he felt like he was going to die, literally, but he's been clean for almost 3 years now.
Why do you feel like you are going to die?

There ARE symtomps to weed, most mental some phisical. Why dose it seem less like the withdrawls of siggarets? Because tobaco is loaded with crap from the companies so you GET addicted. Unlike week it's just a pure plant, sometimes, that gives you a feeling of extream high. The withdrawls cover a spectrum of mostly mental issues not so much the phisical problems like shakeing of throwing up, though in some people this is common, it's just thinking you need it....
I need a few shots of yagermister basketball made me hurt allover lmfao....

I smoked tobacco for a year and a half and that was actually pretty easy to stop (just had to slowly cut back until I didn't smoke anymore).
Btw, I never said I felt like I'm gonna die... but it can make you feel that way by making you feel so incredibly shitty that you constantly think of suicide. Withdrawling from weed just makes you feel very shitty... it's easy to get pissed off, and you say mean things without thinking about it. Then you have a bowl and suddenly calm down and realize how mean you were being.
Meth or heroin withdrawl is most likely much worse. I have done meth before (by accident -- some x pills I bought ended up being meth bombs) and I can tell you that it is definitely not worth doing. If you go look at erowid, meth is the only drug that has only 4 positive effects for having 20+ negative ones, and it's true.
Meth/heroin withdrawl can make you feel like you are going to die because your brain is so used to having the chemical that you are seriously impaired without it. Just like being really high can make you sick, being "really sober" can make you sick as well.

Cocaine isn't addictive to me, and shrooms absolutely most positively aren't addictive (believe me, no matter who you are, you have to basically force yourself to shroom, it's not something you have to resist strong cravings to).
And I talked about other drugs withdrawl a little. I've done quite a few, but weed is the only drug I've not been able to stop doing (mainly because I just don't want to stop).
@ your edit: haven't done crack but it's essentially the same thing as cocaine, though is usually much more addictive. A low dose of cocaine already makes you feel great so it's my opinion that anything stronger is kinda ridiculous.
