- Join us on the first Friday of every month for messages of hope and healing from the impacts of marijuana. Christy Plant shared her experience, strength, and hope on November 5, 2021.
Christy Plant has been in recovery as a codependent for 13 years (5 years with Celebrate Recovery and 9 years with Al-anon). She is a devoted mother who has raised 4 kids (2 girls who are 28 and 26 years old, and 2 boys, ages 22 and 19 years old) and has been divorced for over 5 years. Currently, she works full-time at a school, is a full-time student, and will earn a Bachelors in Business within a year. Also, Christy works a strong recovery program in the Cornerstone Recovery community in Houston Texas after experiencing her younger son’s struggle with addiction (substance use disorder) and an episode of cannabis-induced psychosis. Christy states, ” I work strong recovery program because it brings me peace and serenity. It’s given me my life back and taught me how to show up for myself and take care of myself.”

Christy’s candor & reflection of her life and the trials & tribulations of parenting including the devastating nightmare when her youngest son’s use of marijuana triggered a mind-altering psychosis ( cannabis-induced-psychosis) is so heartfelt. Zach sounds like he’s on his way to survive what other young people including my own son, Shane. did not. It’s beyond maddening that almost ten years from Shane’s suicide ( after two separate psych hosp for psychosis triggered by just one drug “THC” ) so little is known by the public how marijuana assaults the young brain. Cornerstone Recovery has the tools how to guide young people & their parents through a very intense program is such a blessing. I wish Christy & Zach the best in their recovery together. It’s heartwarming that our kids can be saved from the depths of hell marijuana can cause these young brains.
I can relate with that aspect of SHAME atm😢
Hope that you and family are doing well. Thankyou ❤
I can relate to much of this--Christy is very brave...thank you for sharing!
Where is cornertone recovery? I see one in Indiana.
In Houston. www.cornerstoneteamcounseling.com/
How can I get connected up with a group for parents? My husband and I really need to talk to someone.
I don't know but I need something also. What help is available for a guy with a severe TBI and marijuana dependency? Psychotic incidents seem almost normal here.
@@playnejayne5550 Hi, I have learned so much over the last 2 years. We have been through 3 horrible episodes of cannabis-induced psychosis with our son. This last time we got GOOD HELP, and he is finally understanding he can never smoke weed again. This is the first time he actually believes it. Thank God. The TBI your guy has is probably why he is seeking to get help with weed. It is for sure NOT the right thing to be doing in my opinion. I am here to help you out in any way I can. Please Facebook message me if you would like to discuss this more. I understand how hard it is. Linda
@@lindawolfe6647 The immediate problem is his denial of the problem. How do I get an adult son to go for help?
@@lindawolfe6647what treatment center did your son go to that he received such good help and was able to recover? So glad he is better! Thank you.
