CUD: What Is It?

Cannabis dependency is acknowledged in DSM-5 as Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD). DSM-5 defines CUD as pot use for at least one year with lowered functioning and increased agitation as shown through two or more of the following symptoms:

  • Dedicating considerable time to obtaining, ingesting, and recovering from marijuana use.
  • Prioritizing weed over job, hygiene, family, school, and friends.
  • Experiencing withdrawal when trying to quit or curb use.
  • Continued pot use despite harm to oneself, family, friends, or work.
  • Using weed more frequently.
  • Using greater amounts of weed to experience the same high.
  • Attempting to stop or lessen cannabis use without success.
  • Mixing pot and risky behavior such as driving a car while high.
  • Craving weed, even through images, dreams, smells, and obsessive thoughts.

Not all cases of CUD as the same level of intensity. DSM-5 gives varying degrees of dependence, based upon the displayed symptoms.

1. DSM-5 (305.20 F12.10) Cannabis Use Disorder, Mild
Two to three symptoms suggest Mild CUD.

2. DSM-5 (304.30 F12.20) Cannabis Use Disorder, Moderate
Four to five symptoms suggest Moderate CUD.

3. DSM-5 (304.30 F12.20) Cannabis Use Disorder, Severe
Six or more symptoms suggest Severe CUD.

Treating CUD and the Benefits of Detox

There are many potential treatment options by our therapists at Thriveworks Peachtree City, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps individuals identify and challenge thoughts and behaviors related to cannabis use, develop coping skills, and prevent relapse.
  • Motivational Interviewing (MI): Facilitates motivation for change by exploring ambivalence about cannabis use and enhancing commitment to treatment goals.
  • Contingency Management: Utilizes incentives or rewards to reinforce abstinence from cannabis and promote engagement in treatment.
  • Support Groups: Provides a supportive environment for individuals to share experiences, receive validation, and gain insight into cannabis use disorder while receiving peer support.
  • Family Therapy: Involves family members in the therapeutic process to address family dynamics and communication patterns that may contribute to cannabis use disorder.

I have known Stephanie for over six years and worked side by side with her in a mental health center for part of that time. What comes across first and foremost is her caring and concern for her clients and her determination to see that their needs are met. She brings to her work a wide range of experience and training along with confidence that is reassuring and a comfort to those in distress. She can deal calmly with the most severe issues as well as with problems of daily living. In the time that I've known her, she has been licensed in three different states to practice in a variety of settings. If you come to her in a time of need, in a time of emotional upheaval or difficult questions, I don't think you will find a more competent or more caring therapist.
