546: The Truth About Weed: Why It’s Not as Safe as You Think

Real Recovery Talk

Do you have a family member/loved one who struggles with addiction?: https://www.realrecoverytalk.com/frc

In this episode, Tom, Ben, and Dr. Tamberi talk about why weed (marijuana) is not as harmless as many people say it is—especially for young people. A lot of big influencers and celebrities are telling kids that weed is totally safe, but we don’t agree.

We’ve seen many people come into treatment because of weed, and it’s not just “no big deal.” Some struggle with serious anxiety, depression, and even scary thoughts after using weed a lot.

We talk about real stories, the science behind how weed affects the brain, and why it’s important to know the truth. If you're a parent, a teen, or just someone trying to understand what’s really going on, this episode is for you.
