Phase 1: Introduction
Let me introduce myself
You once took a hit from a joint and you are not quite sure whether this is worth repeating. How was that first experience? Did you do it out of curiosity? Because your friends did it? Did you actually want to say 'no' or did you go in a little too enthusiastically and immediately inhale deeply? Knowing why you want to try something and standing behind it 100% is important, so you make sure you don't do things that you might regret.
Please note, this quiz only gives an indication of how you are doing in terms of use. Are you curious what else the Prevention Worker can tell you about the phases of use and do you want more information about weed? Then Moti 4 could be for you!

Phase 2: Experimental User
Do you even know what you're doing?
Weed has piqued your curiosity! You are busy researching what kind of weed you like best, the difference with hash and how to bake a space cake. Don't forget to read up on the risks? Even if you don't use it often, but you don't know your own limits yet, things can go wrong. For example, inform yourself via: www.drugsinfo.nl

Phase 3: Social user
Friends only
You are what we also call a recreational user. This means that you are aware of the risks and estimate in advance what the pros and cons of using weed are at that moment. When you smoke weed, do so in moderation and do not smoke too quickly. Your cannabis use does not affect other important things in your life. Weed is something for every now and then for relaxation and your own pleasure!

Stage 4: User Habit
Building a habit
Habits often creep in a bit. Are you aware of the role cannabis plays in your life? Is it part of it or could you do without it? When you're in this phase, it's important to understand that your body slowly gets used to the amount of THC you ingest each week. Because of this, you may need more weed (due to this increased tolerance) to feel stoned. Think about how many lifts (or joints) you start to feel the effect? You can also reverse this process by reviewing your habit and cutting back for a while.

Phase 5: Problematic user
Are we in trouble?
Moti4 participants often indicate that they do not want to become addicted. But at some point they find out that problems because of weed predate the addiction stage in their lives. We call this the problematic use phase. You are bothered by your use, for example in the field of school or work, within your relationships with friends and family, or you have come into contact with the law. A second way your use can be problematic is because you think you need the weed to solve other problems. Do you smoke to forget stress? To experience peace in your head or because you can't seem to fall asleep otherwise? You have given weed a function at this stage.

Phase 6: Dependent User
I need… to stop!
Do you constantly think about weed and getting stoned? Are you unable to stop and the problems keep piling up? Then you may have slowly become dependent on the weed. We also call this addiction and help to stop is needed. A good first step is to contact your doctor and put the story on the table. Your GP will then work with you to determine the best steps towards treatment. This is not easy to admit to yourself. If you do not dare to take the step immediately, you can always start with an anonymous conversation via telephone, mail or chat, which can be found on the website: www.drugsinfo.nl/contactinformatie

Then contact with the prevention worker in your area is always possible without obligation.
