"I switched weed... for learning to read" - Nottingham

Reya El-Salahi

Available for over a year

The number of people receiving treatment for mental health problems after smoking cannabis in Nottinghamshire has more than doubled in the last six years, new figures show. And its affects can be limiting to progress....and even bring about shame among peers. 麻豆社 Radio Nottingham's Reya El-Salahi hears from one young man who smoked it, sold it....and eventually kicked the habit for a better life. Brett Izu says his problems started early on... in the classroom.
