MYTH: There are more people in drug treatment for marijuana than for all other drugs combined
Myths vs. Facts

 

FACT:  Marijuana arrests and criminal justice treatment referrals are both at an all-time high,

           and these people are in treatment to avoid harsher legal penalties, even if they don’t

           think it’s necessary. Marijuana is less addictive than alcohol – could you imagine being

           forced into treatment because you got caught drinking a cocktail? What a waste of 

           limited treatment resources!
