You can't actually develop a physical dependence on THC (the active chemical in marijuana). People can only think they need it because they want to justify smoking it.

Can you become dependent on marijuana?

Answer: Yes, you very well can.Answer: No, you can't. In my case, I first smoked marijuana when I was 12 years old. I am now almost 18. I have never craved marijuana, never felt like I needed to smoke it. I smoke it if I have free time and have a little extra money I'm willing to spend. As of April 7 2011 I have not smoked any marijuana for at least 6 months. As I type this I don't feel any urge to quit my job, sell my house, buy as much weed as I can and smoke all of it at once. If I have the opportunity to smoke with some good friends, then I will. Its not like cigarettes (which I think are nasty). Dont let anyone tell you that smoking will lead to other drugs. People have gone from weed to cocain and heroin, but weed didnt make them do it.Answer: Yes, people can and do get addicted to marijuana. Anyone can become addicted to anything, and marijuana is no exception. People get addicted when something gives them a high, a rush, relaxes them, and/or makes them feel good. Love can do this, cigarettes can do this, bungee jumping can do this, sex can do this, marijuana can do this, and so on.
