a number of addiction specialists don't take people who claim to be addicted to weed seriously. its a mental addiction and doesn't take anywhere near the toll that say crack or heroin does so its often viewed as 'not a big deal' and something someone should be able to quit easily on their own. thing is, if you're doing it every day its not easy and this could be said about almost anything from soda to television. if you are told one day to just not watch tv any more or to not drink a coke when you have been drinking a can of coke daily for 10 years, its not going to be 'easy'.
