I just don’t understand how weed makes you happy but doesn’t have withdrawal effects. Drugs like cocaine, meth, mdma, hallucinogenic etc., you do.

I am a heavy weed smoker. Like roughly dabbing an eighth of cannabis concentrate every 2-3 days. People say there are no withdrawal symptoms and that marijuana is non addictive but let me tell you, thats bullshit.
The withdrawal symptoms for me include high anxiety and the jitters. I get super fidgety and cant sit still.(tapping my legs and fingers) Theres a loss of appetite that isnt super severe, but a definite lack of interest in food. The most severe symptom for me is probably the temporary bouts of insomnia. I have the hardest time quieting my brain for sleep without the help of cannabis. All of this together can lead to feeling depressed and all around lethargic.
For these reasons, every 2-3 months, depending on how I feel, i take a break from smoking for about a week or so, depending on how i feel. Reminds me of what its like to be sober, and helps me break my dependence and lower my tolerance.
This probably doesnt answer your actual question, but weed is certainly mildly addictive on some level, and every smoker i know HATES being out.
*Edit: The only drug that ive ever enjoyed the high as well as enjoyed coming down and withdrawing is Psilocybin.
