Understanding Cannabis (Ganja) Addiction

The clinical name for cannabis abuse is cannabis use disorder and involves an uncontrollable urge to consume the substance despite harmful consequences. People who suffer from the disease are sure that they can stop using the drug anytime, yet the cycle of withdrawal, cravings, increased tolerance, and so on makes it almost impossible.

Signs of Cannabis Addiction

The signs of cannabis addiction include:

Consumption of larger amounts of the drug or usage for a longer period of time.

Continuous desire or unsuccessful attempts to reduce consumption.

Taking a lot of time on obtaining, consuming, and recovering from the effects of cannabis.

Craving or strong desire to use the drug.

The inability to complete major obligations at work, studying, or at home.

Continuous use of the substance despite the social or interpersonal problems.

Leaving major activities because of consumption of the drug.

Usage of the drug despite being put into physical danger.

Development of tolerance to the substance (the need to use larger amounts for achieving the desired effect).

The appearance of withdrawal symptoms: irritability, insomnia, decreased appetite, anxiety, and depression.

Effects of Long-Term Cannabis Use

The effects of long-term cannabis use:

Mental Problems: increased risk of developing anxiety, depression, paranoia, and, in some cases, psychosis. Memory and concentration issues.

Physical Issues: problems with breathing (when the drug is smoked), infertility, and cardiovascular diseases.

Social and Financial: straining relationships, unemployment, economic problems, and problems with law.

Loss of Motivation: lack of enthusiasm and ambition, dissatisfaction with life in general.

Understanding these signs means taking the first step towards getting rid of the problem. Contacting professionals is the next step that should be taken by people suffering from cannabis addiction.

Comprehensive Treatment Approach

At Nesha Mukti Kendra, we do not follow the principle "one solution fits all". Every patient of our centre suffered from cannabis differently and, therefore, requires a unique programme.

Assessment and Evaluation

First of all, the patient is given a medical and psychological evaluation by our specialists. Based on the results of the tests, they can see the level of dependence on the substance, mental disorders (for example, depression or anxiety), co-occurring disorders, etc. Thus, a personalised plan can be developed.

Medical Detoxification (if needed)

Withdrawal symptoms in case of cannabis addiction are rare, but they can be unpleasant enough. For example, irritability, insomnia, anxiety, and decreased appetite can be quite hard to withstand. That is why our centre provides a detoxification of the patient in order to alleviate the process. Sometimes, the doctors prescribe medications.

Psychological Counselling and Therapy

Therapy plays the main role in cannabis abuse treatment. The methods we use are evidence-based and allow understanding the reasons behind the addiction and changing behavioural patterns and ways of thinking of the patient.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): helps in identifying triggers, challenging negative thoughts, and changing behaviours related to drug usage.
Motivational Enhancement Therapy (MET): increases the internal motivation of a patient to quit and stay quit.
Group Therapy: connects a patient with peers who understand his/her problems and makes the recovery easier.
Family Therapy: heals the relationships damaged due to the addiction and informs the relatives about how to support the recovery process.

Holistic and Alternative Treatment Methods

We are focused on the healing of a person as a whole; that is why our centre uses the holistic therapies. They help to decrease stress, improve mood, and heal the body.

Yoga and Meditation: builds the resilience of mind and body.
Art and Music Therapy: provides a creative way of expression.
Recreational Activities: sports, gardening, and other activities help to rediscover joy without substances.
Nutritional Support: a proper diet helps to restore the body and stabilise the mood.

Relapse Prevention and Aftercare

Before you leave our centre, we give you a solid relapse prevention programme.

Trigger Management: learning how to cope with social pressure, the influence of peers, and emotional triggers.
Support Groups: connecting you with AA/NA or other networks of support.
Follow-up Care: regular check-ins with our specialists to make sure that you are following your recovery programme after discharge.
