Atmost, if you're a heavy user you might experience a slight psychological addiction with marginal withdrawal symptoms.

The key is moderation and being responsible. The more responsibility we have with it the quicker it gets legalized. Ultimately the choice should be up to the individual.
A heavy user who quits abruptly can experience more than "slight psychological addiction". This is an abstract term anyways. Every user is different and some people who quit excessive alcohol consumption abruptly will only experience mild withdrawal. I've seen cases of both good and bad.

I wanted to see if anyone had a link to evidence that supports marijuana is less addictive than alcohol. Not one link has been presented because there is no proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
