I don't understand it, either. We learn in like 5th grade not to use them.

We can't know this because of how difficult it is to lock down what characterizes 'addiction.'

We can know how many people are arrested annually. We can know how many people are prescribed certain drugs. We can know how many people are treated for drug related health issues related to specific drugs. We just can't know everything under the broadly defined umbrella of drug addict.

Yeah, some people are stupidly rebellious and it only takes one try to get addicted

When it's kids, it's "bullying" but if it were adults, it's stalking, harassment, assault, criminal threats and just general abuse. -Tmk

the suggestion that it only takes one use to get addicted is pretty antiquated at this point, no?

What do you mean, not understand? Go out and talk to people. Watch some documentaries.

yeah. I didn't smoke in August or September because I was applying to jobs but they fell through so I started smoking again but only smoking once or twice a week most weeks currently.

there's no withdrawal from weed as it isn't addictive.

the worst that happens is you get cranky and become preoccupied with smoking/using

Lol. Well, who better to know than the source. You can go to AA or NA meetings without any history of your own.

I'm guessing you don't think alcoholics or java/energy drink fiends or chronic Marlboro smokers are drug addicts right? If you're in the American workforce I guarantee many people who you work with are drug addicts in this sense.

Well, idk if smoking counts, but i smoke.

I can imagine myself not smoking, but caffeine is by far the worse addiction for me.

Alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine are all drugs just to be clear. But yes, they are all legal. However, some employers do test for nicotine/tobacco, such as nurses, depending where you live. And of course you can get a type of test done which sees if you drank recently like a breathalyzer.
