How to Help Someone Recover from Marijuana Addiction

Article Category: Self Help

Author Name: everythingaboutweed

It is very hard for people to overcome marijuana addiction on their own and their loved ones can provide the support they need to help them kick the dependency for good. In fact, since addiction to cannabis is seen as being primarily psychological, the support from friends and relatives can be essential in ensuring that the user does not backslide and return to old habits. Here are some tips on how concerned people can help the ones they love end their addiction to weed.

Avoid being judgmental. One of the worst things you can do when helping someone attempt to kick a marijuana addiction is to be openly critical of them, since this can just make them hang on tighter to their dependency. Instead, you should learn to accept the person as they are so that you can help them quit.

Talk with them honestly about their addiction, and how it touches you and other people that they love. This talk is not intended to make them feel guilty, but so they can realize the harm they are doing to themselves and others so that they will develop the desire to change.

Realize that it is up to the user to want to change and you cannot force them to quit their marijuana addiction. So don't pressure them to attend rehab meetings; instead, offer positive reinforcement by letting the user know that there are people who care about him and want to see him get better. The user has to take the responsibility for their own well-being and has to make the choice to quit on their own without being pressured by others.

Don t exaggerate the seriousness of marijuana addiction. Many people have mistaken beliefs about cannabis, thinking that it is as serious as cocaine or heroin. In fact, although it can be addictive, the symptoms of physical addiction are mild and it is really the psychological addiction to weed that is more severe. Another no-no is to play up the health risks of cannabis use, since using weed is relatively less harmful than cigarettes and most moderate users take only one joint weekly.

Point out to the user that dependence on weed is a problem, particularly if it has reached a point where they are already foregoing other social activities in favor of getting high. You should also remind them that turning to cannabis when they have a problem is not a healthy coping mechanism.

Once the user has started to recover from their addiction, you should never nag them or constantly remind them about their previous addiction. This may just drive them to start using again. Instead, you should give them encouragement during their period of recovery and sustained support once they ve kicked the habit.

Help the user find wholesome substitutes for the high they used to get from cannabis use. For example, during their recovery period from marijuana addiction, you can take them on a vacation or try out thrilling activities like bungee jumping and white water rafting.
