Marijuana can be found all over California, including Laguna Beach.
While there is some discussion about whether or not marijuana can lead to addiction, the general consensus is that it cannot. It is important to remember, however, that this is meant strictly in the physical dependence way because people can actually become behaviorally addicted to anything (marijuana included). People can end up using too much marijuana and at inappropriate times, which could be referred to as marijuana addiction or at least abuse.
You know someone has a problem when they start sacrificing things they used to prioritize, such as relationships or obligations.

Laguna Beach has a relaxing and chill kind of culture for the most part, which is often conducive to people who like to relax and smoke marijuana. It is legal here (since it has been legalized in the state of California), but that does not mean it is allowed to be smoked everywhere.
Laguna Beach also houses plenty of popular music and art festivals, both of which also tend to draw the marijuana smoking crowd. If partaking in these festivities alongside some marijuana, it is therefore important to be sure to use it responsibly.
An addiction to marijuana is generally a behavioral addiction, which can often be just as hard to get over as a physical dependency. This is why counseling and therapy (especially behavioral therapy) are so important for someone who is addicted to marijuana. Cognitive behavioral therapy in particular is useful because it allows the addict to be able to openly see what scenarios are problematic for them, and how to say no if they are tempted by more marijuana.
Treatment in this way can be highly effective and will help the person start feeling like they are in control of their life again.
