With the legalization of marijuana in a number of states, some might assume that marijuana addiction treatment is a thing of the past. Though it has slipped to “number two” in usage according to most studies (after prescription painkillers), marijuana is still a sought-after recreational drug, and it can be addictive. The relaxation and exhilaration resulting from marijuana use is an appealing quality of the drug, and research shows that prolonged use can cause changes in brain chemistry and function, as well as symptoms of withdrawal, both indicators of addiction.

While some studies confirm the idea of marijuana as a “gateway” drug –  which means it is could open the door to use of more potent drugs like cocaine or heroin – other research indicates that marijuana users are not necessarily more likely to move on to harder drugs. However, for those with a predilection to addiction, marijuana is an easily accessible way to begin, much like alcohol and tobacco. If withdrawal symptoms occur and users find it difficult to refrain from using the drug despite negative consequences, it may be best to seek professional advice about whether treatment is needed.

Treatment for Marijuana Addiction Should Be Targeted

For those seeking treatment for marijuana addiction, it’s best to start with a thorough medical evaluation, which will determine what health issues need to be addressed, whether detox is necessary,  and whether there are co-occurring disorders to be treated in tandem with marijuana addiction, including additional drug dependencies.  Treatment that targets more than just the drug addiction but also how the drug user’s addiction has affected body, mind and soul, is a holistic approach that brings about real healing and enforces the likelihood of long-term recovery.

Because studies show that drugs have different physiological consequences, it’s important to find a drug addiction treatment center with expertise in handling a variety of specific addictions. For instance, marijuana addiction treatment will likely be much different from heroin addiction treatment, and meth addiction treatment will likely be different from opiate addiction treatment. Addiction experts who are aware of the unique impact marijuana has on the human brain are the ones best qualified to treat addiction to marijuana.

Our Marijuana Addiction Treatment Covers All the Bases

Anaheim Lighthouse offers a specific marijuana addiction treatment component within our treatment center, with an emphasis on holistic healing. In fact, we provide a full array of addiction treatment, including alcohol addiction treatment, as well as benzodiazepine addiction treatment, Xanax addiction treatment, cocaine addiction treatment and treatment for other common drug addictions.

We assure that physical healing takes place by providing an exercise regimen as part of each client’s individualized treatment plan, and we help clients learn how to improve nutrition habits, starting with nutritious, delicious menus within our residential facility. Clients will find their spiritual needs met, based on individual appropriateness, as well as a focus on emotional and psychological needs through various group sessions and individual therapy. We consider family counseling part of the healing process so we make sure family is included in counseling sessions when appropriate. We pride ourselves on the compassionate, round the clock care available in our residential program, and the highly experienced, caring staff devoted to the long-term recovery of each client throughout each phase of rehabilitation.
