Have you experienced addiction with THC? I personally haven't and I've used a lot of it. Maybe habitual, nothing like withdrawal symptoms, but I have a specific time of day that using it is even an option. Every body is different though so I'm genuinely curious.

Yeah I have, on multiple occasions.

Been consuming since the age of ~19, sometimes more, sometimes less. When I do consume more, I tend to seclude myself and leave the apartment as little as possible. I just don't feel like socializing and don't have the energy for it. I usually recognize the actual addiction whenever I feel the strong urge to smoke weed, even though I don't really want to in that moment.

The withdrawal symptoms I experience are more like cravings and a grumpy mood, both of which subside rather quickly (few days). But the cravings are tough.

Most time of the year my consumption is within reasonable limits and does not negatively impact my life. I don't even smoke anymore, I've got my vaporizer for that. Weed has always has been my best bet for coping with ADHD symptoms. Shame that it just doesn't play well with my anxiety.
