I agree with Emma. I'm sure rehab isn't available on the NHS but he should talk to his GP to see what help is available. If he smokes tobacco anyway, it will certainly help if he gives it up. Perhaps using nicotine gum will help with both.

I know what you mean by addictive - if you have come to depend on it recreationally it must be incredibly hard to give up. Health Question & Answer

If he feels he needs to go into rehab because of this then he should defo go and see his gp,he obviously isn't in control of his use of cannabis and they will be able to help him take control of that,im not sure about rehab but there are other sollutions to this aswell as rehab so i think he needs to talk to his doctor to find out what he can doHealth Question & Answer

Jesus Christ, he has to want to first, which means he does not really want to quit at this moment.

Actually I do have experience with smoking and quiting,
started smoking at 18, carried on for about 25 years,
quit for around 7 years, started again for about 2 years,
quit for around 5 years, now happily back at it.Health Question & Answer

It is not pyschically addicting. SO HE IS mentally addicted to how much fun it is... hes needs to pick up a hobby to keep him self occupied or just get it together because hes obviously not trying because its not hard to quit.. unless hes that 1 in a 100 that did get addicted.. then you need to tie him down for a few days let his fever pass through.. and then hell be all goodHealth Question & Answer
