How Do You Treat Marijuana Addiction?

Article Category: Culture

Author Name: everythingaboutweed

While most people who use cannabis will not get dependent on it, marijuana addiction does happen, contrary to what many people believe. This addiction is primarily psychological in nature, as those users who become dependent on weed find themselves unable to cope with the stresses of daily life without it. They are constantly high or are thinking of getting high, to the point where they are no longer engaging in their daily routines.

One of the reasons people smoke marijuana is because it results in the release of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a naturally occurring chemical that results in feelings of intense pleasure. When a user smokes weed regularly, they become used to having elevated levels of serotonin. When they don t smoke cannabis, serotonin production falls and the brain starts craving for it. This is one of the factors behind marijuana addiction.

Some users may also experience physical withdrawal symptoms when they try to quit. These symptoms may include irritability, insomnia, feelings of anxiety, increased mood swings and aggressive behavior and excessive salivation. Some researchers also believe that with the increased use of stronger cannabis, the possibility of true physical addiction to weed is a genuine possibility.

If physical marijuana addiction has already happened, the first step in rehabilitating the user is to detoxify them. This means cleansing THC (the active ingredient in cannabis) from your body. Depending on how long you have been using and how heavy your consumption was, this may take some time since THC is deposited in the body s fat cells. Hence, some parts of your body may still retain THC even a couple of months after you've started to quit.

If you are suffering from physical withdrawal symptoms, you can ease the discomfort by drinking a lot of water in order to more quickly cleanse the toxins out of your body, as well as undertaking a regular exercise program since regularly sweating will remove the THC from your body more quickly.

To cope with psychological addiction to cannabis, the most common treatment method is cognitive behavior therapy that helps users recognize negative and dysfunctional feelings and emotions so they can change them to more positive ones. For example, the patient may be taught to identify the early symptoms of drug cravings so they can deal with them, as well as identifying high-risk situations where the chances of a relapse are high so they can be avoided. The ultimate goal of CBT is to help users develop coping strategies so that they can kick their addiction for good.

Supplementing CBT as a treatment for marijuana addiction is group or one-on-one counseling. The purpose of counseling is to keep the addict from backsliding by helping them to deal with their feelings so that they won t start using again, as well as providing them with the psychological tools that they need to stay clean. For example, a counselor may suggest to a recovering addict to keep a journal that will record their feelings during the recovery process so that they ll gain a deeper understanding of them and cope with them better.
