So, what exactly is marijuana dependence? It’s more than just liking to smoke weed. It’s when your body and mind start to rely on it to feel normal.
Think of it this way: If you find yourself needing to use marijuana every day, or if you experience withdrawal symptoms when you try to stop (like irritability, anxiety, or trouble sleeping), you might be dependent. Other signs include:
It’s important to know that marijuana dependence is a real thing, and it can have serious long-term effects on your mental and physical health. These effects can include:
There are also many misconceptions about marijuana dependence. Some people think it’s not addictive, or that it’s a “harmless” drug. But that’s simply not true.

Beacon is a tool that can be incredibly helpful in your recovery journey. While the name “Beacon” can refer to a number of things, in the context of recovery, we’re talking about resources and systems designed to provide guidance, support, and tracking during the recovery process. Think of it as a lighthouse, guiding you safely through the sometimes-turbulent waters of addiction.
In marijuana dependence recovery, “Beacon” could refer to a specific app, a support group, or even a personalized recovery plan designed to:
The benefits of using “Beacon,” in whatever form it takes, are numerous. It can help you stay motivated, build a strong support system, and develop the skills you need to maintain your sobriety long-term. For example, our Outpatient Services can act like a “Beacon” to guide you on your path to recovery.

We get it. Addiction recovery is tough. That’s why our programs are founded and staffed by people in recovery – people who truly understand.
Many people struggling with marijuana dependence try to hide it from their employers, especially in demanding workplaces like Amazon. There are many reasons for this: fear of judgment, fear of losing their job, or simply feeling ashamed.
However, hiding your addiction can actually make things worse. It can lead to increased stress, anxiety, and even more marijuana use. It can also impact your job performance, leading to problems at work.
Some potential consequences of hiding addiction in the workplace include:
If you’re struggling to manage your work responsibilities while undergoing treatment, there are strategies that can help. These include:
Remember, your health and well-being are paramount. Don’t let fear keep you from getting the help you need. You can verify your insurance coverage to explore your treatment options confidentially.
At Asana Recovery, we offer a variety of treatment options tailored to meet your individual needs. We understand that everyone’s journey to recovery is different, and we’re committed to providing personalized care.
One of our most popular options is our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP). This program allows you to receive intensive treatment while still living at home and maintaining your daily responsibilities. IOP typically involves several hours of therapy and support groups per week.
We also utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a proven treatment method that helps you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to your addiction. CBT can help you develop coping skills and strategies for managing cravings and triggers.
In some cases, Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) may be appropriate. MAT involves the use of medications to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. It’s important to note that MAT is always used in conjunction with therapy and counseling.
For couples struggling with addiction, we also offer couples therapy. This type of therapy can help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and support each other’s recovery.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
