Marijuana Anonymous is a fellowship of people who share our experience, strength, and hope with each other so that we may solve our common problem and help others to recover from marijuana addiction.
Established in 1989, MA emerged from Alcoholics Anonymous using the 12 Step recovery program to connect people who had a desire to stop using marijuana.
We figured out how to stop using marijuana, one day at a time.
On this site, you'll find useful information if you live in or around Los Angeles and you believe marijuana or cannabis may be a problem for you. You'll find a meeting directory for in-person and online meetings and other resources too.

Considering sobriety? Talking to someone who used to use marijuana just like you can make all the difference.
There's always a marijuana addict in recovery available to answer your questions about our 12-Step program, whether for you or for someone else who may have a problem with using too much cannabis. Send us an email and someone will get back to you right away.
If you are experiencing a medical emergency, please contact 911.
