I smoke maybe 4 times a month and only on the weekends, and then its only one bull at a time. Last time I smoked was 2 weekends ago and it was one hit. I do take ADHD medication daily, smoking marijuana just helps with my extreme anxiety.. still it is no excuse. Yesterday, I did the hair follicle test & my hair is extremely long(given I am a 25 yr old female). My fingers are crossed and in hopes I will pass this test so I can get a better job.

What are your thoughts? I am hoping the levels of THc do not make it a "failed" test.

My opinion, not a chance in passing, not very often is once or twice a year. Every week is a regular user.

When you smoke pot a little of it gets integrated into most your body tissue. It is common for this to happen with a wide variety of chemicals. Arsenic for example. A way to test for prolonged intentional arsenic poisoning is with a hair test. Wild eh? So they'll take 1.5" of hair and grind it up and test it for THC or a metabolite for it. They see how much of it there is and see if it passes the line from casual use to habitual use.

Your problem is that the weekend use, regardless of how small, will show habitual use. Because, lets be honest here, it is habitual use.

I wouldn't have high expectations of passing.

Your only shot is having a doctors prescription for marijuana. No script, no pass. Tough choice.

And depending on what job she has.. and what she's trying to get... even a doctors prescription might not be acceptable.
