Understanding Marijuana: Physically vs. Psychologically Addictive

Marijuana, often hailed for its recreational and medicinal properties, has a dual nature. While not physically addictive in the traditional sense, its psychological grip can be profound.

  • Physical Addiction: Typically characterized by withdrawal symptoms when the substance is not consumed. Marijuana doesn’t lead to severe physical withdrawal like alcohol or opioids. However, some users report mild symptoms like irritability and sleep disturbances.
  • Psychological Addiction: This is where marijuana’s true power lies. Regular users can develop a mental reliance, craving the relaxation, euphoria, or escape it provides. Over time, this can lead to increased consumption, impacting daily life and well-being.

The Escalating Concern: Marijuana and Synthetic Cannabis Addiction in New Jersey

Recent years have witnessed a surge in marijuana and synthetic cannabis use in areas like Lakewood, Toms River, and Monmouth County. With the rise in accessibility and changing societal views, more Central New Jersey residents grapple with addiction. Synthetic cannabis, often marketed as a “safe” alternative, has further exacerbated the issue, leading to unpredictable effects and heightened health risks.
