Marijuana addiction test

Marijuana addiction test

The following 7 questions are based and established upon the American Psychological Association’s clinical diagnosis test of marijuana addiction, and if you truthfully answer Yes to 3 or more of the following questions regarding your behaviour for over the last year, then indeed according to them, you’re addicted to marijuana.

1. Have you tried in the past to at least cut down on your smoking or totally quit, but failed?

2. Could you use more and more of this drug than you used to be able to? Do you need more to get high or just to feel or experience similar effects?

3. Have you ceased doing things which you used to enjoy just because of your smoking habit?

4. Have you ever spent a lot of your time on getting high, working to acquire cash to get high or merely thinking about getting high?

5. Have you ever smoked more than you had planned on smoking? For instance, do you ever have a joint, a few hours or minutes before work, and rather than stopping at one, find yourself very high a few hours later as you begin your work?

6. Do you still continue to use even after you begin to feel and experience unfavourable and detrimental social and health effects? You still continue to use at the similar level or extent even as you notice or observe, that the drug is already affecting your capacity to think and focus, or is having a negative effect on your school grades or work performance.

7. Did you ever begin to feel anxious or apprehensive if you cannot get any of this drug? And have you ever taken another drug instead when there’s no marijuana around?

So, what’s your real score? This is just one way of diagnosing if your cannabis use has become a problem, there are numerous others reasons for why it may have become a problem, including the fact because you feel it has. But never the less seven questions anybody who uses marijuana should ask themselves.

I run a forum that offers advice and support to those who are trying to quit marijuana. To speak to others who are there, or have been there visit the Cannabis Addiction Forum.
