"I was smoking up to 15-20 marijuana cigarettes a day with no tobacco."

This explains a lot. Wonder if that 'meat dress' gave her the munchies? grin

Lady Gaga Admits Having an Addiction to Marijuana
that is some burn rate. 15-20 a day? wowzer, she must pay people to think for her. that can't be good for you.
Certainly didnt hurt that hot bod she has, and that incredible voice.

Man can she sing. Tired of her antics tho. Hope she develops her career alittle to be less bizarre.
I thought you couldn't get addicted to marijuana�..
Her bizarre act is making her money that we can't start to fathom. She's making it world wide. She's gone from being a common slut to a very very rich slut.

I don't know much about her personal life but being a slut and putting on an act are two separate things.

The withdrawal symptoms are similar to caffeine addiction.
She performed totally nude the other day. Somewhere in Europe as I recall.

It's terrible music and her schtick bugs me.
This admission is just to draw more attention to her, since Miley Cyrus is getting all the raves these days. Just Marketing Strategy on her part.

Any one who appears on stage totally naked is a slut in every sense of word. It can be argued that she's selling her body for money - prostitution.

And 20 year old Miley Cyrus is trying to one-up her it seems.
Remember Guys, Porn and Sex is the best selling commodity in the entire world . If a woman wants to use her body for sex to get wealthy , who gave me the right to get in her way. Lady G can sing , she has the body to go with it , it just doesn't get much better than that in her profession , even tho Miley Cyrus has her beat by a long shot on the body .

And that argument is stupid and inane, she is a no talent spaced-out moll...not a prostitute, but if the silly bitch keeps going the way she is she may very well have to take up that occupation to pay for her dope.

And I have worked with an awful lot of dope-heads in the shearing sheds and I can attest that the bastards are most definitely addicted to the crap, the shame being that quite a lot of them are otherwise very decent people, with a weakness.
And I have absolutely no problem with kicking the ribs out of any that attempt to bring it into my home or around my family.
Like I said,.. Schit music, stoned out hosebag, fat azz.

Anybody that makes it through all 5 minutes deserves a prize.

no its not, cause the active ingredients are fat soluable, evenif yah quit cold turkey there is enough left in your body to naturally taper yah off...

she isnt addicted to pot, she is addicted to the habit of always having one in her hand if she is smoking that much.....aint the drug its the fact she is used to always having a joint so as a matter of habit everything she does also includes pot....its become part of her routeen like brushing your teeth or whatever....

its not the drug, its the act....

I don't know about a physical addiction, but I've seen some teens go crazy when they can't get access to marijuana.
Wrong again rattler. laugh

The psychology of withdrawl from either caffeine or pot is very similar in nature. I did ace my senior level "Drugs and Society" class during my college days, in fact I still have my textbook from that class.

Quote
Long-term marijuana users trying to quit report withdrawal symptoms including irritability, sleeplessness, decreased appetite, anxiety, and drug craving, all of which can make it difficult to remain abstinent.

theory is great but ive quit both caffeine and pot cold turkey and say thats wrong.....completely different.....no withdrawls from pot.....caffiene is actually similar to coming of opiates just not as bad and alot shorter duration....same sorts of feelings though...headache, skin crawling ect....
It's deadbeats that have lived their life trying to escape reality attempting to explain they have "symptoms" of withdrawal.

You cannot become physically addicted to weed. "Irritability" when you're not high for the first time in 10 years is not withdrawal. It's simply not being high.

Not eating a lot because you didn't smoke pot for 3 days is not withdrawal. It's your body adjusting to a minor change. Same as sleep.

You must drink different coffee than I, it is a [bleep] headache for a couple of days with no Panadol Rapid...or no problems at all with.
dont drink coffee but im a hell of a Coca-Cola addict crazy grin
That is a drink that doesn't agree with me...too gassy.
I don't know about physical additive properties

but when your dude is out riding his yamaha waveRunner all damn day and you can't get a sack....you will break out the panty hose and slip em over the shop vac and start cleaning the couch cushions, start scrapin the bowls for resin, break out the 'camera bag' and hunt for roaches, etc laugh

thats a fact jack

thats a fact jack


but thats cause of a mental addiction, not a physical addiction....they want it, their body isnt telling them they need it....its part of their routeen and lifestyle so they want it.....but they aint gonna start shaking and get the chills and hot flashes if they dont get it...

mental and physical addiction are two very different things....if you have the right personality you can get mentally addicted to damn near any sort of routeen....
I semi-like Gaga. Wouldn't pay money to see or hear her, but she's not bad.

She's good singer who was told she'd never amount to anything because she wasn't pretty enough. She said bullchit and started working on building the act/persona. She's arguably the hardest working chick in music. Have to give her that.

This is important why?

What Lady Gagggggaaaa does is as important as what Jay-Wow does and that would be??? Nothing.
What an awful piece of music.

Works on the same brain areas as sugar. Of course, we know that [bleep] ain't addictive.
I am a fan of her humping around in that Judas video.
Coke & marijuana, I've tried'em both. Never got addicted. Maybe I didn't do enough or long enough.. smile
I knew a guy that did a lot of coke...said he weren't addicted. He just liked the smell.

It ain't BC Bud fur sure.
Whats funny as schit is all the alcoholic {drug addicted} old geezers on here trying to make pot out to be a satanic herb from hell and pot smokers the devils spawn. Pot, meet kettle. Alcohol is by far the stronger, more deadly, more addictive drug.

I don't disagree. The only difference is that I've met some really smart drunks and never seen a smart dopehead.
Come to think of it, I can't say as I've ever met a smart pot head either.
full blown pot head? no me neither, course the few i know werent that smart before they first smoked pot either.....someone that approaches it like most approach alcohol as in some here and there to relax? you would be surprised how many people with excellent jobs ect fall into this category.....
i know a couple of successful businessmen who smoke weed everyday, but i'm sure their the exception. also one county judge.
she must have been in a lot of pain. lots and lots of pain.

pain aint the only reason.....hell i much preferred it to alcohol to relax cause i was never out of control and no hangover so made getting up for work alot more pleasant..........
Underneath all that make-up is enough ugly to make anybody do drugs.
I never seen anybody smoking weed trying to start fights, puking on their shoes, beating their lady, acting bulletproof or in general making an absolute ass of themselves. Eating green beans with mustard, yes. Staring at the aquarium for waaaaaay too long, yes. Smiling a lot, yes. Getting dumb because they smoked too much for too long, probably, but I've healed. Had none in a long, long time Just too illegal to chance it.

For all you old fart hippies. Lowell George/Little Feat doing Willin' then DBTJ:

I see them ........on cops every Saturday nite smile...oh yea... in the police blotter in the local rag ....

I agree with you 100%. Stoners just want to eat pizza and mello out while listing to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the moon while staring at a strobe light. Hold on a bit...That was me in 1978!

Drunks are the tools! They get behind the wheel, kill someone, want to pick a fight and barf all over the place and they are accepted. Give me a stoner any time but you can keep the drunks.

Anyone got a light?

Right. It just turns you into a whigger, but that is a problem in and of itself.
Lady Gaga is addicted to slutdom and stupidity, marijuana is the least of her worries.

Driving under the influence of anything is stupid, a local gal here was killed last year by a pothead who ran a stop sign and "T" boned her, 3 kids with no mother now........Potheads are just as bad as the stupid [bleep] who drink and get behing the wheel.

Absolutely. She can sing. And she is too ugly to make it in Pop Culture w/o a Schtick. So she developed a schtick to mask her witch-like beak.

She kills it in her genre. I just happen to not like that genre. Some of her acoustic/solo stuff is quite good. She has talent. The freak thing is just so much of an act.

Totally agree....
I agree but check your data and you will find that the comparison of stoners (pot) and drunk Drivers is like night and day.

The data: It was hard to find!

Pot use:
Quote
THC was found in only 4% of the drivers. This relatively low percentage may indicate a declining trend in the incidence rate of THC in fatally injured drivers in the United States, explainable by the declining prevalence of marijuana use throughout the 1980s (Johnston et al. 1992).


Drunks:
Quote
Over 1.2 million drivers were arrested in 2011 for driving under the influence of alcohol - See more at: http://www.madd.org/statistics/#sthash.Rl8BJBYD.dpuf



Stoners make up a small % or arrests while driving and fatalities when compared to drunks.

Are you angry: Why drop the "F" bomb? Slow down and take a drag on that joint man! The Pizza is ready!
Who gives a $hit? I find it amazing why anybody would care about what a person they don't even know does.

Sorry, but I don't keep up with the Kardashians..........
Best post of the thread!
+1 to the guy that said who cares what she does.

I work in the addiction and recovery world and I must agree with all those who are here speaking to that large amounts of violence (including suicide some 94% of complete suicide have alcohol involved), drunk driving which is sadly what I deal with the most and other social trauma.

I have encountered to groups that should stay away from marijuana and that is young men and people with an existing or possible mental illness. I have seen marijuana use (abuse and addict) ruin the lives of a lot of young men and also those people with metal illness should stay away from all hallucinogens mild or otherwise.

the same group should stay away from booze aswell......like anythin, the abuse of marijuana isnt good.....main issue is it makes doing nothing interesting.....not nessisarily the best thing for a teenager though i used it heavily in my teens but i was going to schoo, then to work and used it to wind down after work and it allowed me to unwind, get to sleep and then get up in the morning and do it all over.....otherwise ild sometimes be wound up enough after work i couldnt go to sleep and ild only get an hour or two before school....

yeah i realize i wasnt the typical teenage user BUT what i was doing is actually pretty typical of how a hell of alot of it gets used by adults every day in the US....lil bit to unwind after a stressful day of work to help them unwind, get some sleep and get back to work in the morning clear headed....

for the record.....they have found the same with alcohol....most any drug is a bad idea while the brain is developing in teens....
well too set things straight so too speak there is no physical addiction too pot but after several years of chronic abuse there can be psychological dependence it may also be a good thing too remember no one has ever dyed from a pot overdose a few have died of Dorito poisoning though.

A Kiwi prick I shore with for a time beat a young lad to death over a $20.00 dope debt, and don't bother telling me that the dope is not addictive as I have seen hundreds of dills I shore with sucking the crap into their lungs every chance they got...you really do not want to be bent over shearing on the stand in front of some hop-head with a handpiece in his hand, as it is a quick way to have a handpiece shoved up your arse or through the back of your leg.

It is interesting to note the way it affects different people though, some can work like Trojans on it, and others look like they are moving through frozen treacle even though they have a glow up and are slaving as hard as they can.

No doubt.
like a whole list of things, there are some jobs that you dont want someone thats been toking anywhere near....it does [bleep] with reaction time, no way around that......it can, depending on the individual and strain, really screw with concentration aswell....

there is a difference between physical and mental addiction JSTUART....pot is not physically addictive but somepeople can sure think they need it cause its become part of their routeen and they think they have to have it.....but actually lock them in a room and take away the stuff and they are not going to physically suffer like if yah took my pain meds away from me.....if i quit my meds cold turkey ild be hugging a toilet for the next 2 days....thats physical addiction....
It is amusing to see dope-heads tearing their vehicle apart in a panic when they have lost their days stash...very edifying.
i lucked out.....though i come from a family loaded with alcoholics i dont have the addiction gene in any form....my brother is the same way, he cant figure out why ppl have a hard time quiting smoking cause he can start and stop without a second thought about it....
One of my cousins is a filthy lying thieving addict, he has been disowned and ostracised by the entire family, one of my brothers gave him a thumping and I am good with that as it saved me the effort.
LOL but they alway said Marijuana wasn't addictive that why it was A ok for everybody!

There is good developing evidence that marijuana can be very addictive and marijuana addiction is now an listed separate addiction according to the DSM 5. The division of physical versus psychological addictions is synthetic and adds no value to the discussion, someone in the throws of of a full blown panic attack due to marijuana withdrawal certainly won't quibble over that.

Rattler captured it perfectly, no psychoactive chemical is good or appropriate for a developing mind. Keep in mind we are coming across large amounts of preteens abusing drug with the most common being alcohol, second being prescription drugs and third marijuana.
if you have gone through serious physical withdrawals you would understand why i say there is a hell of a difference......ive done it 4 times, 3 by choice cause i was sick of the side effects of the meds the docs give me.....the 4th time my wife managed to loose the med bag while on vacation.....that was not fun crazy
