Teenage Addiction to Marijuana?
Question by Karry Hudson: Teenage addiction to marijuana?
Say there was a 16 year-old Canadian female, who has experienced many traumatic events in their life time, who has a family history of clinical depression and lastly, has used marijuana on a chronic basis for 2-3 years now. (2-5 grams/day) This girl has dropped out of high school twice now, but only manages to hold down a part-time job at a fast food restaurant to support her “Habit”. She is 104 pounds at 5’7, lives on subsidized housing and welfare with her mother and twin brother (whom was emitted to the hospital for attempted suicide twice), and they both smoke marijuana as well. Aside from “rehab” which costs a lot of money, what could this mess of a girl do to get back on track? I believe shes got some underlying issues with her family, but they refuse to seek Professional help. Shes scared for her future, and is terrified of falling into the trap of a more dangerous drug.
