Impaired cognitive function: Heavy marijuana use, especially during adolescence, can lead to cognitive impairments, including memory problems, decreased attention span, and reduced learning capabilities.

Mental health issues: Marijuana addiction has been linked to an increased risk of developing or worsening mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, and psychosis. It can exacerbate symptoms in individuals already predisposed to these conditions.

Respiratory problems: Regular marijuana smoking can cause respiratory issues, including chronic bronchitis, coughing, and lung infections. Inhaling marijuana smoke exposes the lungs to harmful substances, similar to tobacco smoke.

Legal implications: While marijuana laws may have evolved in some places, its use and possession are illegal in certain jurisdictions, like Idaho. Legal repercussions can result in fines, probation, or even imprisonment.

Diminished motivation and performance: Marijuana addiction can lead to decreased motivation, lower academic or work performance, and reduced interest in activities previously enjoyed. It can interfere with personal and professional growth.

Relationship and social consequences: Excessive marijuana use may strain relationships with family, friends, and romantic partners due to changes in behavior, increased isolation, and prioritizing drug use over social connections.

Risk of addiction to other substances: Marijuana addiction can increase the likelihood of experimenting with or developing an addiction to other substances, as it may serve as a gateway drug for some individuals.

Initial Contact

The hardest part in coming to grips with your addiction is admitting you have a problem. Sometimes, that admission can come internally during a truthful moment. Other times, you can tell that your addiction or abuse is affecting your marriage, your job, or something else dear to you.

That’s why we’re available to answer questions about the process, services, and more. We can understand what kind of care you need and what you’re looking for.

Our assessments are done by professionals who have experience in the field of treatment, and the assessment is 100% confidential. Your privacy is our priority. The assessment can be done virtually or in person.

Detox

After admission to our facility, you might be going through withdrawal symptoms. We’ll be there with you the whole way, with close medical monitoring along with specialized medication, exercise, and nutrition change.

Rehabilitation

As your time at our facility progresses, the symptoms of withdrawal may begin to lessen but that doesn’t mean we can relax our approach. This is the time to build you up and set a new routine. It’s time to focus on your mental and physical health. Through our programs and specialized treatment programs, we can help move you along. 

Contrary to popular belief, rehabilitation does not mean you’re sitting alone in a dark room sweating out your time here. It means that you are with your group of team members in the same situation as you, surrounded by healthcare professionals dedicated to your recovery. You’ll be participating in group meetings, family meetings, exercising, taking on our ROPES Course challenge, and receiving one on one counseling with your dedicated counselor and our addictionologist.

Post-treatment Support & Outpatient

Just because you walk out the door doesn’t mean our work is finished. Once you’re nearing the end of treatment, we’ll start to build a discharge plan for you. You’ll know about all the medications you need, what doctor’s appointments to expect, and everything you may need afterward. From there, we help you get connected to an incredible support community to help you stay accountable and on the right track. And remember, we’re always a phone call away to help you with any aspect of your recovery.

Do you or someone you know need help?

Addiction is a chronic disease, much like asthma, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, and many others. If you were diagnosed with stage 1 cancer, would you not seek some form of treatment to prevent it from getting worse? You don’t have to be at rock bottom to need treatment. Get help before it gets out of hand. If you are at rock bottom or have a severe diagnosis, it’s never too late to get the help you need.
