Understanding Marijuana Abuse
What Is Marijuana Abuse
Marijuana abuse involves the misuse of THC, a chemical compound found in cannabis plants. While there have been movements across the United States to widen the legalization of marijuana, this drug still can have ill effects. This drug is notorious for its mood-altering effects and can have psychological, physical, and social consequences. Marijuana use has grown immensely in recent years due to increased social acceptance and legalization efforts.
Medical Definitions
Marijuana Abuse
The misuse of marijuana often leads to serious physical and mental health problems, including respiratory and cardiovascular issues, long-term cognition impairment, and mental disorders such as depression.
Marijuana Addiction
While it is a popular myth that marijuana is not addictive, studies have shown that a relatively high rate of marijuana users qualify as having cannabis use disorder. Marijuana addiction often develops with heavy and frequent use. Withdrawal symptoms, including irritability, anxiety, and depression, mark this addiction.
Polysubstance Use
Cannabis use is unlikely to result in an overdose death. However, using marijuana has been linked to a higher risk of becoming dependent on other, more dangerous substances.
Why Is Marijuana Addictive?
Marijuana is addictive due to its stimulation of the brain’s reward system. The drug increases dopamine release, producing euphoria, happiness, and relaxation for most users. While it may not be as potent as some other drugs, heavy marijuana use can still alter the brain’s structure and function, making it difficult for individuals to experience pleasure without the drug. This leads to a cycle of dependence and addiction that is difficult to break without professional help.
Statistics
Prevalence
Marijuana is one of the most prevalent recreational drugs in the United States. In 2021, approximately 52.5 million people in the U.S. reported that they had used marijuana in the past year. The country’s use has been rising steadily, as many states have de-criminalized or legalized recreational use. In 2022, daily marijuana users even outnumbered daily alcohol users.
Deaths
To this date, there is no known direct link between marijuana use and death. However, it has been speculated that there may be a link between marijuana and some deaths related to cancer, driving incidents, and other accidents.
Health Impact
Chronic marijuana use can lead to severe health issues, including respiratory and cardiovascular issues, increased risk of cancer, and long-term cognitive impairment.
