That does not say it is physically addictive. I suggest you read it. Physical addiction is not just feeling like you really need to to something. It's a physiological condition.

Sure, cannabis triggering the reward system is totally not physical addiction

Gambling triggers the reward system. Is gambling physically addictive?

THC triggers the reward system, gambling doesn't have a substance per se

Gambling absolutely triggers the brain's reward system.

You have not provided a shred of evidence that cannabis is physically addictive. No medical studies whatsoever.

THC is literally what makes marijuana psychoactive, and it triggers the reward system. Pretty sure that's physically addictive

Being 'pretty sure' is not scientific evidence. You have none.

I've literally linked you a source that says THC messes with the reward system

Yes. And that is not the same as physical addiction. I already told you that. Your source does not prove your claim. I don't think you even read it.

You do not go into withdrawal if you stop using cannabis even if you have used it for 20 years. If it was physically addictive, you would.

It is simply not physically addictive.

I don't know why it has to be physically addictive for you to have a problem with it, but it still isn't.
