Marijuana is a serious issue. The expansion of marijuana is really harming and destroying a lot of lives. If we don't get on top of this and stop this expansion, they're not going to stop with marijuana.
What happens when a mom takes on the cannabis industry? In this episode of 'A Way Through', Aubree Adams, the Director of Every Brain Matters Community, shares her passionate fight against teen cannabis use. Aubree's story is deeply personal—her journey from Colorado to Houston, Texas, was driven by her desire to find better support for her own family. She discusses the real effects of marijuana on teens, including the risks of cannabis-induced psychosis and Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS).
Aubree also sheds light on how these conditions can lead to more severe mental health issues like schizophrenia. This episode isn't just about the dangers, though. It's about hope and finding practical solutions. Aubree talks about her work with Every Brain Matters, an organization that provides resources and support for families affected by marijuana use. She shares insights on how families can respond effectively to addiction rather than reacting out of fear or frustration.
If you're looking for ways to support a loved one or simply want to understand more about the impact of high-potency marijuana products on teens, this episode is a must-listen. Aubree's advocacy work highlights the importance of education and prevention, offering a beacon of hope for families navigating these challenging waters.
