In spite of what initiatives to legalize and today's culture wants you to think, it's a verified and conclusive proven fact that marijuana is an addictive drug which can cause both acute and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Like other substances, someone who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period will become addicted to its effects and can experience withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case 10-20 years ago, which makes it an even bigger issue.

Someone who uses marijuana regularly is really altering how the brain functions, hence the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal function when the person stops using marijuana, this may take time. Individuals actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as the drug is eliminated from your 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 which may be hard to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal as an example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression and other mental symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is so prevalent for many who try and cease using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be found at drug and alcohol detoxification and drug rehabilitation centers in Grandwood Park to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and can receive further rehabilitation services following detoxification.
