In spite of what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it is a proven and scientific fact that marijuana is an addictive substance which can lead to both short and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Much like other drugs, anyone who has used marijuana for an extended time period can become dependent on its effects and definately will experience withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case twenty years ago, which makes it an even bigger problem.

Somebody who uses marijuana frequently is really changing the way the brain functions, and so the brain can't just automatically return to normal operation when the person stops using marijuana, this could take some time. Individuals actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox could be a challenge for habitual users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms that may be challenging to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal by way of example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal might cause extreme depression and other psychological symptoms for chronic users. This is why relapse is so prevalent for those who try and cease using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services are available at alcohol and drug detox and drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Hansen to help people through this process so that they don't relapse and may receive further treatment services following detox.
