above answer is so wrong...
Interference with dopamine production is the chemical basis of addiction in the use of alcohol, amphetamines, cocaine, nicotine, opiate compounds, and other powerful addictive substances. Clinical studies show that cannabis is dissimilar to classic addictive drugs in that it does not significantly interfere with dopamine production in the "pleasure centers" of the brain, according to the Office of Technology Assessment after ten years of research.

After extra dopamine from a drug such as weed is gone does the body correct itself and produce the correct amount of dopamine again?
No, that's the whole point of addiction. But first of all, only recently has marijuana been shown to increase levels of dopamine, but only if taken in high enough doses. But if you assume marijuana is not addictive, then it shouldn't be affecting dopamine levels to begin with. Constant use of addictive drugs, however, can cause the brain to lose its ability to produce high levels of dopamine. When this happens, a drug user feels a greater need for the drug, or for even stronger drugs.
