Question by Watercup: How is “addiction” defined? Is one addicted to marijuana if they were at some pt and were sober for years?
but they are sometimes using it again? I just wonder bc I listen to Dr. Drew and he is always calling people addicts and it seems he does it whether they are using now or have before… (for any substance). Shed some light please!
