Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it's a verified and conclusive proven fact that marijuana can be an addictive drug which can lead to both acute and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Much like other drugs, somebody who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period can become dependent on its effects and definately will encounter withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't true 2 decades ago, making it a much bigger issue.

Somebody that uses marijuana frequently is significantly changing how the brain functions, therefore the brain can't just automatically return to normal function when the person ceases using marijuana, this will take time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any 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 experience withdrawal symptoms that may be hard to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal by way of example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal could cause severe depression as well as other mental symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is so prevalent for individuals who try and cease using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be obtained at drug and alcohol detox and drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Merritt Island to help people through this process so that they don't relapse and can obtain further rehab services after detoxification.
