I’m wondering if I have a weed problem. I started taking weed to help my depression then after a while I take it every day. Usually edibles and vaping sometimes just vaping.

And I’ve been taking T breaks and it seems like when I’m on a break everything is horrible life sucks and it makes it hard to be on a t break. So I maybe don’t take it for a day or two each month. I keep saying I’m on a T break but I never really am.

All I do is get stoned, sometimes with my friends, usually alone. That’s all I do. If I’m not working I’m high or getting high soon.

I’m trying to find a girlfriend but sometimes they want to see me and I’m too high to go see them. That’s happened to me and it sucks I really want a girlfriend and I missed those chances because I was stoned.

I know weed isn’t addicting but is there another thing for it? Should I move away and try to start over sober?

    I get what other folks are saying about addiction etc but I’ll throw this out there…

    There is a difference between addiction and dependency. They are 2 different things.

    If it helps you, then you may rely on it. Think of medication. You aren’t addicted to an antidepressant, but you are dependant on it.

    This may be that for you. Or it may be addiction. If you “need” to be high to function, it’s probably addiction. You should take a break and talk to your Dr.

    But if it helps you, genuinely helps you, then what harm is it doing? I mean really, ask yourself that. Think of your situation in the third person. Objectively.
