Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. I think that your marijuana will show up on the drug tests. I also advise you to stay off of all the drugs that you have been taking including marijuana, tobacco in any form, since this will hamper your chances in getting to where you want to be in life. I hope you also visit with a substance abuse counselor. I also think that you should visit with a psychiatrist, to rule out any mental health issues.

I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
