Marijuana is legal but still able to be abused here in Huntington Beach.
Unlike many of the other, harder drugs, there is a way to use marijuana responsibly -- there is even a way to use marijuana so it benefits your health rather than harms it. However, some people abuse marijuana, meaning they use it too much or at least they use it when they are well aware that there will be negative consequences because of it, but they nonetheless do it anyway.
Marijuana abuse can be harmful not only to the person abusing it, but also to their friends and family. They might shirk daily responsibilities, stop attending social events, and more.

While the vast majority of people coming to visit Huntington Beach are visiting so that they can enjoy its amazing beaches, sometimes a change of pace is nice. Or, perhaps you aren’t a beach person but your family is, so you can go elsewhere while they swim and lie in the sun.
Huntington Central Park is an excellent place to still enjoy nature without the beaches, as is Shipley Nature Center (which is inside the park). While we’re at it, you had better appreciate the environment even more with the Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve. Despite these cool things to do, some people here end up abusing marijuana.
The good news is that treatment for an addiction to abusing marijuana is, theoretically, easier than treating a true physical dependency. While a marijuana abuse might certainly feel negative (both physically and mentally) when they stop consuming marijuana on a regular basis, they will not have the same major withdrawal effects that occur when someone physically dependent on a hard drug would go through.
Therefore, treatment for marijuana abuse is often more focused on the behavioral aspect of it, with behavioral cognitive therapy, individual therapy sessions, and anonymous support groups.
