Is Cannabis Addictive?

Is Cannabis addictive? THC triggers the release of dopamine in larger amounts than when naturally generated. The surge of dopamine and the associated feeling of pleasure prompts the brain to repeat the behavior. The problem with this action is that consuming THC may become addictive. It’s not very common but is a possibility. The relationship between THC and dopamine can be described as a “love-hate relationship,” where it creates a wonderful feeling, but you can hate the act that follows.
