Signs and Symptoms: Marijuana
Q: How can I tell if my child has been using marijuana?
A: There are some signs you might be able to see. If someone is high on marijuana, he or she might:
- seem dizzy and have trouble walking;
- seem silly and giggly for no reason;
- have very red, bloodshot eyes; and
- have a hard time remembering things that just happened.
When the early effects fade, the user can become very sleepy.
Parents should be aware of changes in their child’s behavior, although this may
be difficult with teens. Parents should look for withdrawal, depression,
fatigue, carelessness with grooming, hostility, and deteriorating relationships
with family members and friends. In addition, changes in academic performance,
increased absenteeism or truancy, lost interest in sports or other favorite
activities, and changes in eating or sleeping habits could be related to drug
use. However, these signs may also indicate problems other than use of drugs.
