RESUMEN
El cannabis es la droga ilegal más consumida en el mundo. En los últimos años, se ha producido un aumento del consumo experimental, sobre todo en la población adolescente, y a edades cada vez más tempranas. Además del incremento del consumo, se está produciendo, especialmente en la población más joven, la disminución de la percepción de riesgo, que es mucho menor que para otras drogas. El objetivo del trabajo es describir una muestra de pacientes que realizan el seguimiento en un centro ambulatorio de dependencias para tratar un trastorno por dependencia de cannabis, y estudiar la interrelación entre el consumo de cannabis y los problemas psicosociales existentes, sobre todo en la población adolescente. Algunos estudios refieren que es difícil establecer la relación causal entre el consumo de cannabis y la existencia de consecuencias psicopatológicas; pero en lo que sí están de acuerdo varios autores es en que existe una estrecha relación entre ambos hechos. Los consumidores crónicos de cannabis presentan mayores dificultades y problemas psicosociales (AU)
ABSTRACT
Cannabis is currently the most widely consumed illegal drug. A rise in experimental use has taken place in the last years, mainly in the adolescent population. Meanwhile, the age of first use has decreased. In addition to an increase in cannabis use, a reduction in the perception of risk has been observed, in young populations specially, being much lower than for other drugs. The aim of this study is to describe a sample of outpatients with cannabis dependence disorder and to review the relationship between cannabis use and the existing psychosocial problems, mainly in the teenage population. Some studies report that causal relation between cannabis use and psychopathological consequences is difficult to establish, though many agree on the existence of a close association between both. Chronic cannabis users have greater difficulties and psychosocial problems (AU)
