What we treat
Marijuana addiction
This is the substance families argue about most. One person is certain it is harmless, another is certain it is not. The useful question is narrower: has stopping been tried, and did it work?
What it looks like
Use that has moved from evenings to most of the day. Motivation that has quietly gone, a job or a degree that has stalled, and a social life that has narrowed to people who also use. Attempts to cut down that last a few days and end with irritability, poor sleep and low mood. Today’s products are far stronger than the ones most parents are comparing them to, which is usually the missing piece in the argument.
What helps
An assessment looks at how cannabis use affects daily life, what happens during attempts to stop, and whether anxiety, sleep problems, or another mental health condition needs care. Therapy can help someone change patterns of use and manage cravings. Support for withdrawal symptoms and the level of care depend on the person’s needs.
