"Overdoses" gtfo with that mess
as for addiction: Is it possible for someone to become addicted to marijuana?
Yes, about 1 in 10 marijuana users will become addicted. For people who begin using younger than 18, that number rises to 1 in 6.1-3 For more information visit CDC’s section on addiction or the National Institute on Drug Abuse’s pages on addiction science.External
One would have to evaluate whether "addiction" is necessarily physical, or can include psychological. Just like there are many drunks who are not alcoholics, the distinction being not physically addicted.
This is all for information and discussion, and does not reflect my personal views on the legalization/decriminalization issues.

I don't know how the 'official' definitions sort out - it's just the way I look at it.
My understanding is that pot 'addiction' is actually a psychological dependence. (Easy to make distinctions when you have no dependence - neither are easily beaten.) Like smosey I am not a Hondo Greek scientist, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express...
If you include psych dependence as an addiction, then I am addicted to pizza...

Coffee, OTOH, has some addictive chemical aspects, but "withdrawal" will be mild.
But if you have a severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), that interruption could cause major psychological distress that could move into psychosomatic physical effects--picture an autisitc adult with OCD (which really should be CDO because that's alphabetical order). The psychological addiction becomes physical.
Herein lies the danger of the current trend of assigning all forms of mental stress and aggravation as a "syndrome" or "disorder" that then qualifies as an illness or disability, triggering a wide range of legal and civil rights components, public compensation, benefits, accommodation and heightened rights.
So if my water stops working for two days, I demand compensation!
The Onion put it succinctly into perspective with an article headed by: "I'm like a chocoholic, only with booze!"

Freshman year in college I witnessed a guy do 100 bong hits in row without once taking his mouth off the bong. He then went to the cafeteria where he passed out in a plate of mashed potatoes. We helped him back to his room where he slept for the next 24 hours. You cannot smoke enough weed to overdose.

So now we turn away from the realm of empiricism and enter that of anecdote: the four hour thing happened to me. I'm going to speak freely here. Marijuana is only legal in PA if one has a medical card and I do not. Anyone wants to try to arrest me for what I'm about to type can have at it.
When they put me in the ambulance, the paramedic tried to give me a benzodiasepine to calm me down, but I told him I felt like I was sinking and feared sinking lower. And brother, let me tell you: I never refuse a Valium if I can get one. The only good thing was that the waves seemed to be lessening in intensity. But I had no way of knowing if that would last, so I let them go ahead and take me to the ER.
By the time we got to the ER, the waves were pretty manageable, and during the next hours-long session of hurry-up-and-wait they subsided entirely. Since my sleep had been interrupted, I fell asleep there i the ER bed. Because now I could. When the doctor finally came in to tell me there was nothing detectable wrong with me, he even chided me: "Wish I could fall asleep in the ER!" Yeah, dude - I get that you're overworked and employed in a nightmare factory, but you didn't just think you were spending your last precious seconds wracked with guilt that you weren't a better human being, Dr. Asshole!
There is, scientifically speaking, no distinction between psychological and physical addiction. The brain is an organ in your body and it does everything it does with various molecules, mostly proteins. Your brain thinks its thoughts using electrically charged molecules, and it communicates between its parts and to with the other organs using molecules called neurotransmitters. Drugs don't even actually get you high. They just block, or not, the receptors that accept these transmitters like a key in a lock. The balance of those chemicals make you feel the things you feel.
It is true that opiate usage can have profound side- and withdrawal effects. The irony is that withdrawing from them cannot kill you in and of itself, and that you're much more likely to die if you keep using them. But I can tell you that you will want to die. Alcohol is actually much more dangerous in that regard - both it and benzodiasepines can trigger life-threatening seizures when used compulsively in the long-term and then stopped suddenly. The brain is intricate, and its method subtle.
