Treatment for Cannabis Addiction

Article Category: Self Help

Author Name: Everythingaboutweed

Cannabis addiction can be treated if you can identify the problem early in its course. Once you identified the main problem, you need to stay equipped with the right approach to make sure that you can completely address the main problem as well as the clinical manifestations that come with it.

Education

This treatment appraoch is considered as a foundation for most of the other interventions that will be used for the person who will undergo cannabis rehabilitation. Informing both the client and the support system is important to make sure that they will comprehend the nature of the condition. Moreover, this is important to make sure that all the parties involved will understand the importance of each rehabilitation phase in relation to the recovery from the condition.

Abstinence

This is typically done on a gradual basis. Abrupt abstinence from using marijuana is highly discouraged due to the increased risk of having withdrawal syndrome. This is a condition that causes a biochemical chaos in the body that triggers the sympathetic nervous system. If this mechanism goes out of control, the person with cannabis addiction may undergo a state of coma. In worst case scenarios, abrupt cannabis abstinence can cause death.

Pharmacological

At present, there are two main kinds of medications used to address marijuana addiction: benzodiazepine and THC receptor inhibitor. It is not ideal to combine both of these medications because this may cause shock for the person who will take both drugs.

Because marijuana can cause hyperactivity for numerous body systems, benzodiazepine is typically used as a depressant to counteract the effect. Specifically, this medication is used to enhance the functions of the inhibitory neurotransmitters of the brain. As a result, the condition itself is not addressed but the clinical manifestations are temporarily suppressed.

On the other hand, THC receptor inhibitor is used to decrease the activity of the facilitatory neurotransmitters. As soon as this is suppressed, the activity of the sympathetic nervous system is suppressed as well.

Group Intervention

This is a non-invasive treatment approach used as an adjunct to the main interventions. One of the key elements of this procedure is social interaction. Through this element, both the clients and the supporting people around them are encouraged to exchange inspiring stories that will push everyone to take courage in battling the condition.

According to studies, this rehabilitation approach is promising, as far as preventing a relapse is concerned. On top of that, this aids in speeding up the recovery for the person who currently undergoes the procedure. Even the support system can gain empowerment out of the entire experience.

One of the most important categories under this approach is impulse control. In this therapeutic strategy, the people with marijuana addiction are asked to do some exercises that will reinforce their desire to say no to the rolled joint.

These are just some of the interventions that can help you address cannabis addiction. Ideally, all of these treatment approaches should be applied to make sure that the person will recover holistically. Holistic recovery is vital to decrease the risks of having a relapse in the future.
