Chapter 2: Literature Review
2.1 Literature Review
The literature review examines existing research and scholarly works related to
hashish addiction among adolescents, focusing on various dimensions, including
long-term drug addiction effects, paranoia, anxiety, physical effects of drug addiction,
and available help for long-term drug addicts.
2.1.1 Long-term Drug Addiction Effects
Research on the long-term effects of drug addiction, namely young hashish addiction,
reveals a range of results. Chronic cognitive deficits, including executive function,
memory, and focus issues, have been related to prolonged substance use during
adolescence. Research shows that regular hashish use may change the way the brain
functions and is structured, which may affect how well a person performs at work and
in the classroom.
Additionally, chronic drug use affects not only cognitive functions but also mental
health. Teens who have had extended drug addiction in the past have been linked to
higher rates of sadness, mood disorders, and decreased life satisfaction.
2.1.2 Paranoia
One psychological effect of teenage hashish use is identified as paranoia. Research
indicates that hashish's psychoactive ingredients, especially tetrahydrocannabinol
(THC), may be linked to elevated paranoid symptoms. Determining the underlying
causes of paranoia is essential to creating focused interventions and techniques for
support in order to lessen its negative effects on the wellbeing of adolescents.
Studies have looked into the connection between paranoia brought on by hashish and
other mental health problems, highlighting the importance of thorough evaluations
and intervention strategies that target substance abuse as well as the psychological
symptoms that go along with it.
2.1.3 Anxiety
In the context of teenage hashish addiction, anxiety comes up as a major worry.
According to studies, teens who use hashish may become more anxious, which could
exacerbate anxiety problems that already present or cause anxiety-related symptoms
to manifest in new ways.
Investigating the relationship between hashish use and anxiety is crucial to
developing intervention and preventative methods that target the co-occurrence of
substance abuse and mental health problems. The body of research emphasizes how
crucial it is to view anxiety as a complex byproduct of hashish addiction that is
impacted by social, environmental, and personal factors.
2.1.4 Physical Effects of Drug Addiction
Scholarly literature has drawn attention to the physical repercussions of hashish
addiction in teenagers, in addition to its effects on cognitive and mental health.
Chronic hashish usage has been linked to changes in appetite and metabolism,
cardiovascular consequences, and respiratory problems. Comprehending the
physiological effects of cannabis on teenage bodies is essential for creating
comprehensive intervention programs that target mental and physical health.
In order to support preventive measures, research highlights the significance of health
education and awareness programs that educate parents, educators, and teenagers
about the possible physical repercussions of hashish use.
2.1.5 Help for the Long-term Drug Addict
This section of the literature review examines available support and intervention
strategies for adolescents struggling with long-term hashish addiction. The literature
suggests that a combination of behavioral therapies, counseling, and pharmacological
interventions can be effective in treating hashish addiction among adolescents.
Additionally, community-based programs, family involvement, and school-based
prevention efforts play a crucial role in providing comprehensive support for long-
term drug addicts. However, challenges such as stigma, limited accessibility to
treatment, and a lack of awareness persist, indicating the need for continued research
and advocacy to enhance the availability and effectiveness of help for long-term drug
addicts.
In summary, the literature review provides a comprehensive overview of the current
state of knowledge regarding hashish addiction among adolescents, emphasizing the
multifaceted consequences and available support mechanisms. This foundation
informs the subsequent chapters of the study, guiding the research towards a deeper

regional situations in the chapters that follow.
2.3.1 The connection between drugs and crime
It is critical to investigate the complex interaction between adolescent drug use,
including hashish usage, and criminal activity in order to comprehend the wider
societal ramifications of substance addiction. This section explores international
research that looks into the intricate relationship between drug use and criminal
activity, with a special emphasis on adolescent behavior.
2.3.1.1 .Drug Abuse as a Sign of Criminal Activity
Studies conducted in a variety of locations indicate a connection between teenage
drug use, especially hashish usage, and a higher risk of participating in criminal
activity. Research has looked at the chronological order, determining whether drug
abuse comes before criminal activity or the other way around. It is essential to
comprehend the directionality of this relationship in order to create focused
interventions.
2.3.1.2 Drug Use's Impact on Criminal Decision-Making
Studies that look at the cognitive aspects of the relationship explore how hashish's
psychoactive effects may affect teenage decision-making processes that result in
criminal behavior. Research reveals the ways in which substance use may be linked
to criminal activity by examining the effects on risk perception, moral reasoning, and
impulse control.
2.3.1.3 Criminality and Social Context
International research emphasizes how social variables mediate the link between drug
abuse and criminal activity. Peer pressure, familial relationships, and socioeconomic
background are important factors that shape the relationship between teenage hashish
usage and criminality. To create comprehensive preventative and intervention
measures, it is imperative to comprehend these environmental factors.
2.3.1.4 Lawsuit Repercussions and Recidivism
An analysis of the legal ramifications for drug offenses committed by adolescents

hashish use, and criminal activity highlights the complex nature of this interaction.
This knowledge serves as a basis for the following chapters, which design focused
interventions and policies to address substance misuse and its possible impact on
criminal conduct in the adolescent population.
2.3.2 Loss of Family
Introduction
One poignant and complex aspect of hashish addiction that warrants further
investigation is the effect on family interactions. This section explores international
research to disentangle the intricate relationship between teenage hashish addiction
and the ensuing loss of family support. Awareness the wider effects of teenage
hashish addiction requires an awareness of the complex linkages that exist between
substance use and familial relationships.
Family Dynamics and Adolescent Substance Use:
Several international research have demonstrated the mutual influence of family
dynamics on teenage substance use, including hashish intake. The family, which is
frequently seen as the main socialization factor, is crucial in forming the attitudes and
behaviors of teenagers. Studies repeatedly show how parental participation,
communication styles, and family cohesiveness as a whole affect adolescents'
decision to start using drugs and how long they use them.
An increased risk of teenage substance use has been linked to family contexts with
limited parental supervision and communication. Research has demonstrated how
important healthy family dynamics are in serving as a barrier against the attraction of
other drugs and hashish. Such beneficial dynamics are lost as a result of substance
abuse can then lead to a series of problems that impact the user and their family.
Effects of parental substance use throughout generations
One important factor that needs to be considered is how hashish addiction affects
families throughout generations. Numerous studies conducted worldwide have looked
at the relationship between parental substance use—especially with hashish—and the
cycle of substance misuse that develops in teenagers. The intricate interactions
between behavioral, environmental, and genetic factors that influence how substance
use behaviors are passed down from one generation to the next are examined in these
studies.
The literature in this field emphasizes the necessity of focused therapies that handle
the adolescent's substance use as well as the larger family environment. Recognizing
the connection between individual behaviors and family dynamics, comprehensive
family-based approaches are frequently used in preventative initiatives aimed at
ending the cycle of intergenerational substance use.

Effect on the Parent-Child Bond

Tense parent-child interactions are a common sign of the loss of family support
brought on by teenage hashish addiction. Research conducted all across the world has
looked into the emotional and communication components of these relationships,
illuminating the difficulties families have in preserving positive bonds when one
member is abusing drugs.
Addiction to hashish can cause emotional detachment, communication breakdowns,
and a breakdown in trust between parents and teenagers. The stigma attached to
substance abuse may make these difficulties even worse as families deal with social
criticism and personal struggles. In order to customize therapies that meet the unique
needs of families experiencing a crisis, it is essential to comprehend the dynamics of
parent-child relationships in the context of hashish addiction.
Familial Stigma and Social Isolation
Addiction to hashish in youth can cause social shame within the family, which affects
the affected person as well as the family member. Numerous studies conducted in
various cultural contexts have examined the social ramifications of familial stigma,
providing insight into how it could worsen the difficulties adolescents and their
families encounter when trying to find understanding and support.
Families often retreat from social engagements out of fear of prejudice and judgment,
which further isolates them from other sources of support. Familial stigma affects not
just the person who is addicted to hashish but the entire family as a whole.
International study highlights the necessity of interventions that not only address
substance abuse but also address the stigma associated with it in society, which
exacerbates the challenges families confront.
Role of Family-Based Interventions
Given the severe difficulties associated with losing family support as a result of a
hashish addiction, family-based therapies have become an essential part of all-
encompassing treatment plans. Research conducted all over the world has evaluated
the efficacy of a range of programs, such as family therapy, counseling, and
educational activities, with the goal of enhancing communication and resilience
within the family.
Family-based interventions acknowledge the relationship between family factors and
substance use. These programs frequently include therapy interventions aimed at
restoring trust and fortifying family ties, as well as psychoeducation for family
members and training in communication skills. Studies highlight how beneficial these
kinds of interventions are for long-term healing and family well-being, in addition to
helping with the immediate problems.

Cultural Variations in Family Dynamics

Family interactions are greatly influenced by cultural differences, and research has
looked at how these differences affect what it's like to face familial loss as a result of
hashish addiction. Comprehending cultural aspects is crucial to customizing
interventions that honor varied customs and values.
Habesh addiction may have a more noticeable effect in certain societies where strong
family ties are valued. On the other hand, the effects on family dynamics may seem
differently in societies that place a higher importance on individualism. The goal of
international research is to unravel these intricacies and offer guidance for the
creation of culturally appropriate solutions.
Conclusion
One emotional and difficult component of adolescent hashish addiction that affects
individuals and their families is the loss of family support. International research has
painstakingly examined the different aspects of this loss, illuminating the mutual
influence of drug abuse and family relationships.
Literature on the subject highlights the need for comprehensive strategies that tackle
the complex interconnections between substance use and family dynamics, from
analyzing how family dynamics affect adolescent substance use to comprehending
the generational effects of parental substance use. An all-encompassing awareness of
the difficulties brought on by the absence of family support is facilitated by the strain
on parent-child relationships, the social repercussions of familial stigma, and the
function of family-based remedies.
These global study results, as we will see in later chapters, provide a basis for
