What treatment looks like when cannabis use affects daily functioning in New Milford

A client's daily cannabis use had gone unaddressed for years until a performance review at work made the pattern impossible to ignore, prompting them to reach out on their own rather than at anyone else's urging. IOP-level individual therapy explored what the daily habit had been filling, while the recovery manager helped set small, concrete weekly goals to rebuild follow-through at work.

What Are the Common Signs of Marijuana and Cannabis Addiction?

The most common signs of marijuana and cannabis addiction are listed below with severity levels and health implications.

01.ModerateIncreased Marijuana and Cannabis Tolerance

Needing larger amounts of marijuana and cannabis to achieve the same effects once felt with smaller quantities. The body adapts to regular use by altering brain chemistry, so a person may not appear affected even at high amounts.

Health Risks: Rising tolerance signals growing physical dependence and a heightened risk of overdose as use escalates beyond safe limits.

02.HighWithdrawal Symptoms

Physical or emotional symptoms — such as nausea, sweating, shaking, anxiety, irritability, or insomnia — that appear when marijuana and cannabis use is cut back or stopped.

Health Risks: Withdrawal from some substances can be medically dangerous and should be managed with professional, supervised care rather than attempted alone.

03.HighFailed Attempts to Cut Back or Stop

Repeated, unsuccessful efforts to reduce or quit marijuana and cannabis — often using more, or for longer, than intended despite a genuine desire to stop.

Health Risks: Loss of control is a core feature of addiction and rarely resolves without structured treatment and ongoing support.

04.ModerateDisruption to Daily Life

Continued marijuana and cannabis use despite mounting problems at work, school, or home — including strained relationships, financial trouble, and neglected responsibilities.

Health Risks: Using despite clear consequences indicates the disorder is progressing and affecting multiple areas of life.

05.ModerateCo-Occurring Mental Health Symptoms

Anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma that drives — or is worsened by — marijuana and cannabis use, creating a cycle that is difficult to break alone.

Health Risks: Untreated co-occurring conditions raise relapse risk; integrated dual-diagnosis care treats both the addiction and the mental health condition together.

I spent a total of 11 weeks in Lantana programs — 6 weeks of PHP and 5 weeks in IOP. I am truly grateful for my experience with the staff and clients there. Although they are a newer program, they take client feedback to heart and are willing to work with you on your recovery and mental health goals. They changed my life.

Matthew RyderGoogle review · New Milford, CT

★★★★★
My husband had been in and out of different facilities for a six-month period. Once he was moved to Lantana there was significant improvement almost immediately, and my husband was able to move through the program and succeed. Thank you to the team at Lantana for understanding his issues and working toward a recovery and a plan for him to move forward.

Ann MorganGoogle review · New Milford, CT

★★★★★
This program and staff saved my son's life. They are kind and compassionate and treated us with respect. Addiction is a powerful disease and cannot be battled alone — it takes an army, and Lantana has built a great force to help families with that battle. We could not be more grateful for Mark, Mike, Christian and the entire team.

Melissa PeroGoogle review · New Milford, CT

★★★★★
Lantana has consistently helped clients of mine that have gone through their programs. The clinical staff is top notch and their support staff are equally impressive at providing excellent care to clients. After 15 years of working in the treatment field I am still very confident when I refer families to Lantana for help with their loved ones.

Thomas McAlindenGoogle review · New Milford, CT

★★★★★
The program at Lantana is wonderful. I went to Lantana directly after leaving a 30-day inpatient program and this was the best decision. The program helped me learn many coping skills for my recovery. The entire staff is amazing — they even helped with aftercare once I completed the program. I can't say enough about how wonderful this experience was.

Doreen SouzaGoogle review · New Milford, CT

★★★★★
Lantana Recovery is amazing! I can't say enough great things about this treatment center. They genuinely care and have a team that truly puts recovery first. The staff is compassionate and knowledgeable, creating a safe and supportive environment for healing. They don't just treat the addiction — they care for the whole person, offering tools and guidance that really make a difference. I highly recommend this center to anyone seeking real, lasting recovery!
