Marijuana Use Disorder

Marijuana Addiction Treatment in Portland, Oregon

What Is Marijuana Use Disorder?

Marijuana is widely accepted and increasingly legalized, but daily or compulsive use can still lead to psychological dependence and impaired functioning. Many people use cannabis to cope with stress, anxiety, boredom, or emotional discomfort. Over time, they may find themselves feeling foggy, unmotivated, detached, or unable to relax or sleep without it.

At Bridge of Hope in Portland, Oregon, we help clients rebuild clarity, motivation, emotional regulation, and confidence without relying on marijuana. Our outpatient program focuses on restoring balance, strengthening coping skills, and helping you reconnect with goals, relationships, and purpose.

When Is Treatment Appropriate?

Marijuana may not cause dangerous physical withdrawal, but it can still be deeply habit-forming. When cannabis use becomes your primary coping tool or starts affecting your functioning or priorities, treatment can provide support and structure.

Examples of when marijuana addiction treatment may be appropriate include:

Daily Use

Using marijuana every day or multiple times a day, often automatically or out of habit.

Avoidance

Avoiding responsibilities, withdrawing socially, or losing motivation and interest in meaningful activities.

Dependence

Feeling irritable, anxious, restless, or unable to sleep without it.

Difficulty Cutting Back

Wanting to stop or reduce use but finding yourself unable to follow through.

Get Treatment for

Common Cannabis-Related Use Disorders

Daily Cannabis Dependence

Daily or near-daily use can become an emotional or psychological crutch. Over time, clients may experience cognitive fog, low motivation, irritability, or difficulty functioning without cannabis. With structured support, it is possible to rebuild clarity and balance without depending on marijuana.

High-Potency THC Addiction

Products with high THC levels such as concentrates, vapes, or dabs can lead to stronger cravings, emotional instability, and difficulty moderating use. Treatment helps clients stabilize, manage withdrawal-related discomfort, and develop healthier coping strategies.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my marijuana use is actually a problem?

Many people function well on the surface while still struggling with dependence. If you rely on marijuana to relax, sleep, feel motivated, or cope with emotions, or if you feel uneasy when trying to cut back, it may be a sign that your use is becoming difficult to control.

Why do I feel irritable or anxious when I stop using?

Marijuana can temporarily calm the nervous system, but regular use can raise your baseline stress level. When you stop, irritability, anxiety, restlessness, and sleep problems are common. These symptoms are temporary, and treatment can help you manage them safely.

Is it normal to feel unmotivated or foggy after long-term use?

Yes. Frequent marijuana use can affect focus, energy, mood, and short-term memory. Many people describe feeling cloudy or disconnected. These symptoms usually improve as your body and mind adjust to reduced use.

What can I use instead of marijuana to manage anxiety or sleep?

Treatment focuses on helping you build healthier coping tools such as grounding skills, emotional regulation strategies, sleep support, CBT, and mindfulness. You will learn ways to calm your body and mind without depending on cannabis.
