In spite of what efforts to legalize and popular culture would lead you to believe, it is a verified and conclusive indisputable fact that marijuana is definitely an addictive drug which can bring about both acute and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Like other drugs, a person who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period can become addicted to its effects and definately will experience withdrawal symptoms when they initially quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case two decades ago, which makes it a much bigger problem.

Someone who uses marijuana on a regular basis is really changing how the brain functions, therefore the brain can't just instantly return to normal function as soon as the individual ceases using marijuana, this may take some 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 long-term users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which are often hard to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression and other psychological symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is really prevalent for those who try and stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be found at alcohol and drug detoxification and drug rehabilitation centers in Venice Gardens to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and may obtain further treatment services after detox.
