Join us for an in-depth conversation with Larry Westreich, MD, an NYU affiliated psychiatrist who specializes in Substance Use Disorders. Dr. Westreich is triple board certified (General Psychiatry, Addiction Psychiatry and Forensic Psychiatry) and Past President of The American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry. Today’s well timed topic addresses the growing increase in Cannabis use among teens and young adults as the nation pushes ahead with rapid legalization of this increasingly potent drug. Discussion revolves around what to do when your loved one has a problem with Cannabis. Is Cannabis addictive? What does Cannabis Use Disorder look like? What is the scientific consensus on the effects of Cannabis on the brains of teens and young adults? Isn’t it “medicine”? What’s the connection between Cannabis and mental illness? Does the American Psychiatric Association hold an official position on Cannabis? How do I approach my teen/young adult child if I’m worried about his/her Cannabis use? How are Cannabis problems treated? Where do I go to find help? As he addresses these questions with intelligence and compassion, Dr. Westreich relies on decades of experience working with people struggling with Substance Use Disorders and their families.
