Recognising Cannabis Dependence: When is Treatment Needed?

Cannabis might feel harmless at first. It can seem like something that helps you relax, unwind, or sleep. But over time, it can quietly take more than it gives. If you find yourself needing it just to get through the day, it might be time to ask: is this still helping me, or is it holding me back?

What Does Cannabis Dependence Look Like?

Cannabis dependence can be tricky to spot, especially because it builds gradually. You might not notice the change until you feel like you need it. Maybe your sleep feels impossible without it. Maybe you’re using more than you used to and feeling anxious or flat without it.

Here are some common signs:

• You use cannabis every day or almost every day

• You’ve tried to cut back, but it didn’t stick

• You feel edgy, moody, or restless when you don’t use

• It’s starting to affect your motivation, relationships, or mental clarity

• You’ve lost interest in things that used to matter

You don’t have to tick every box to know something’s up. If cannabis is starting to control more of your life than you’re comfortable with, it’s worth exploring your options.

When is Cannabis Addiction Treatment Needed?

Not everyone who uses cannabis needs rehab. But if your use is affecting your wellbeing, work, or personal relationships, professional help can make a big difference.

Cannabis addiction treatment is especially worth considering if:

• You feel stuck in a cycle and don’t know how to break it

• You’re using cannabis to avoid or numb deeper emotional pain

• You’ve tried to stop before but keep going back

• Your mental health is suffering

You don’t need to hit rock bottom to get help. In fact, the earlier you reach out, the easier the recovery process can be.

Why One-on-One Treatment Makes a Difference

At Freedom, we do things differently. We don’t run group sessions. You won’t be expected to share with strangers or sit in a room with others. Instead, your recovery journey is completely one-on-one.

This approach lets us dig deeper into your story. We look at why you started using, what you’re really trying to escape from, and how we can help you create something healthier and more fulfilling.

Your program is customised to fit your life, not the other way around.

What Treatment Can Look Like

Cannabis addiction treatment doesn’t have to be rigid or clinical. With us, you’ll get a supportive, calming space to reset and heal. We’re located in beautiful Bali, far from the everyday noise and pressure of home.

You’ll work closely with your own personal therapist and wellness team. Your program can include:

• Trauma-informed counselling and psychotherapy

• Holistic therapies like breathwork, meditation and somatic work

• Physical wellness activities like yoga, surf therapy, hiking or strength training

• Time to reflect, rest and reconnect with yourself

We believe recovery should feel empowering, not punishing. And we’re here to walk beside you every step of the way.

What Happens After Rehab?

Leaving rehab isn’t the end of the journey – it’s the start of a new chapter. Life without cannabis can feel unfamiliar at first, but also full of possibility.

We help you plan for what comes next. That includes:

• Tools to manage cravings and triggers

• Support to build a daily routine that keeps you grounded

• Strategies to protect your mental health

• Guidance on rebuilding relationships and finding purpose again

We’ll also help you set up aftercare and continued support so you feel confident moving forward.

• Customisable program: Choose the wellness activities that suit you

We keep it small, quiet and focused – so you can truly reset.

You’re Not Alone. And You’re Not Broken.

Needing help doesn’t mean you’ve failed. It just means you’re human. And you deserve a life where you feel clear, present and in control again.
