INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
Can marijuana help you feel calmer or fall asleep while gradually becoming something you depend on? In this episode, Zack welcomes back clinical psychologist Dr. Roberto Olivardia to explore the relationship between ADHD, anxiety, and cannabis use. Roberto explains why people with ADHD may be more vulnerable to substance dependence and why marijuana can feel helpful in the short term, even as frequent use begins to affect attention, motivation, and daily life.
Zack also shares his experience of using cannabis and the fears he faced when he stopped using it. Together, they discuss today's high-potency cannabis, what parents and family members may notice when use becomes a concern, and how treatment can address the needs a person has been trying to meet with marijuana. It's a compassionate conversation for people questioning their own use and for families wondering how to understand what is happening.
