In spite of what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to believe, it is a proven and scientific indisputable fact that marijuana is an addictive substance which may lead to both short and long-term physical and mental harm to users. Similar to other drugs, somebody who has used marijuana for an extended time period can become dependent on its effects and will encounter withdrawal symptoms whenever they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't true 10-20 years ago, which makes it a much bigger issue.

Someone that uses marijuana often is really altering the way the brain functions, hence the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal function when the person stops using marijuana, this will take time. Individuals actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to normal operation without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be quite a challenge for habitual users, because users will encounter withdrawal symptoms which can be hard to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal for instance, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression along with other mental symptoms for chronic users. This is why relapse is so common for individuals who try to stop using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox solutions are available at drug and alcohol detoxification and drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Loughman to help individuals through this process so that they don't relapse and can obtain further rehab services following detox.
