Marijuana Addiction Treatment
Quitting marijuana after months or years of daily use brings real withdrawal: trouble sleeping, irritability, appetite loss, and cravings that pull you back. At Dawson Recovery, treatment starts with medically supervised detox and continues through counseling and long-term aftercare, so the changes you make actually hold.
How Dawson Recovery Treats Marijuana Addiction
Heavy, long-term marijuana use can produce real dependence, and stopping often brings irritability, trouble sleeping, appetite changes, and cravings that peak in the first week. Treatment here starts with a clinical assessment that matches you to the right level of care based on how much you use, your health history, and what you need day to day.
When withdrawal warrants it, medical detox keeps you comfortable and monitored. From there you move into residential care or an intensive outpatient program, depending on your situation.
If anxiety, depression, or another condition is part of the picture, we treat it alongside the addiction. Handling them together gives you a steadier footing than tackling either one on its own.
Therapies We Use
Your care plan pulls from several treatments at once. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps you spot the thought patterns that drive use, while group therapy puts you alongside people working through the same thing. Family support brings the people closest to you into the process. When it fits your situation clinically, medication-assisted treatment is part of the plan too.
