โ Golly, this is difficult.
You are both right, but I don't feel I should be justifying the entire 'smoking nation' here...
I guess, from that point of view, I am addicted. No denial there. And AC, weed is just as harmful because most people smoke it with rolling tobacco (or cigarettes, depending on preference), therefore they are still getting the effects of tar and nicotine. Also, most weed smokers smoke a huge amount, whereas in the last year or so I have cut down to about 10 cigarettes a day. Mainly because of a job I had where I worked as a school librarian and didn't want the children smelling the smoke on me ๐ฌ

Weed isn't just as harmful, fact.
The fact that people add a harmful substance to it just makes it more harmful.
Taking anything in drastically high doses is bad but doing so with weed and doing so with tobacco is different.
You didn't answer my above question though.
Why do you not WANT to quit? Why did you consciously stop smoking a harmless substances on the basis that it lowered focus, yet knowingly smoke aware of the fact that it's killing you?
