I Need Help Treating my Marijuana Dependency!

I don't know what information you need so I'll give you my case:

I'm in need of help treating my marijuana dependency and whatever it is that has developed from it. I've been smoking regularly (two to ten times daily) for about four years, and I believe I'm starting to develop more mental disorders other than the addiction. I've had brief suicidal thoughts and strange sexual thoughts that come on as brief feelings of impulsive action (I've yet to act on any of them, but sometimes I have to fight with the irrational thoughts and they scare me greatly). My social life is nil now, I've dropped out of college, and now that I feel like it might be too late to clean up and recover my mind I'm seeking help. What's going on and what should I do?

Response from Daniel…

It is not too late!

From what you described, you are now in the throes of addiction and it is progressing, i.e. daily use, increased isolation, decreasing level of functioning, psyche issues developing. I recommend that you seek an initial assessment with an addiction specialist to develop treatment plan. Most likely, something along the lines of individual outpatient treatment along with some kind of group involvement, 12-Step program (if there hasn't been any other previous treatment.)
