Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit substance in the UK — but its long-term effects are often underestimated. With increasing potency and rising dependency rates, cannabis misuse can significantly impact mental health, motivation, relationships, and overall well-being. Here’s what you should know:
According to the Office for National Statistics, 7.4% of adults aged 16 to 59 and 16.2% of those aged 16 to 24reported using cannabis in the last year — making it the most commonly used drug in England and Wales.
The THC levels in cannabis have dramatically increased in recent years — from an average of 5% to as high as 15–25% in “skunk,” the most widely available type in the UK.
A 2023 study by King’s College London revealed that daily cannabis use is strongly linked to increased risk of psychosis, especially among young adults and individuals with underlying anxiety or trauma.
Hospital admissions related to cannabis-induced mental health crises have increased by over 50% in the past decade, according to NHS Digital.
Increased risk of anxiety, panic attacks, and depression
Reduced emotional regulation and motivation (also called “amotivational syndrome”)
Distorted perception and memory issues, especially with long-term use
Difficulty maintaining healthy routines, employment, and relationships
Isolation from friends and family, or withdrawal from hobbies and personal goals
Trouble sleeping, irritability, or mood swings when attempting to stop
Impaired concentration, short-term memory, and decision-making
Reduced academic or workplace performance
Breathing problems or chronic cough when smoked
Many people underestimate how psychologically and emotionally ingrained cannabis can become. Over time, it may serve as a go-to coping mechanism for:
Stress and anxiety
Social discomfort
Sleep problems
Emotional avoidance or trauma
When people try to stop, they often face withdrawal symptoms like irritability, insomnia, mood swings, cravings, and restlessness — making it difficult to stay on track without support.
By working at the subconscious level, hypnotherapy helps to:
Break psychological triggers and rewire your relationship with cannabis
Reduce or eliminate cravings by addressing the emotional needs behind use
Build confidence, emotional regulation, and daily motivation
Restore clarity and purpose without the fog of cannabis dependency
