This is part 2 of a 3-part series telling my story of quitting Marijuana over the last 4.5 months. Today we are discussing how marijuana became a problem in my life and the signs that you might have an addiction. Addiction & substance use is a huge issue in the US and world today. Marijuana addiction is becoming more prevalent with its legalization. It’s becoming more acceptable to be addicted to marijuana & most people don’t even know or recognize that they have a problem. Research has shown that about 50% of people with addiction issues have a mental health disorder, and about 25% of people with a mental health illness also have addiction issues. So, it’s important we talk about these things, how they are related and how to get help. If you want to improve your mental health, we have a 4 week healthy habit accountability group starting on Dec. 5th.

This is part 1 of 3 part series discussing my 4 month journey of quitting using Marijuana or THC. I discuss getting sober, how my addiction started, why I would smoke and why I quit. A huge part of mental health issues in the U.S. and world are addictions and addictive behaviors. Marijuana is an addiction that is stigmatized and often unrecognizable. I had an addiction for nearly 10 years to MJ and it was extremely difficult to quit. My hope is that you discover signs of addiction and if you or someone you know has a problem that there is hope and you can quit too. Thanks for supporting the show please follow the show and give us a 5 star review so we can spread the message of mental health wellness and particularly getting sober. If you want to improve your mental health, we have a 4 week healthy habits accountability group starting on Dec. 5th.
