If you’ve tried to cut back but can’t, or feel dependent to get through the day, you’re not alone. With the right support, things can get better.

7 signs of cannabis use disorder you shouldn’t ignore

Here are 7 signs your marijuana use might be becoming a problem—especially if they’ve been affecting you for weeks or months.
1You’ve tried to cut back—but can’t You make rules like “just weekends” or “only at night,” but keep falling back into old habits.
2You rely on it to cope You use cannabis to deal with stress, boredom, or sleep issues—and feel like you can’t manage without it.
3You feel foggy or unmotivated It’s harder to stay focused or productive. Things you used to care about feel harder to start or follow through.
