In spite of what efforts to legalize and today's culture wants you to believe, it's a proven and scientific indisputable fact that marijuana can be an addictive drug which may lead to both acute and long-term physical and mental injury to users. Much like other substances, someone who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period will become addicted to its effects and will encounter withdrawal symptoms when they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the situation two decades ago, making it a much bigger issue.

Someone who uses marijuana frequently is significantly changing the way the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically return to normal function as soon as the person stops using marijuana, this can take some time. People 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 a challenge for habitual users, because individuals will experience withdrawal symptoms which can be difficult to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal as an example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal could cause severe depression and other psychological symptoms for chronic users. That is why relapse is so prevalent for many who try to stop using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are available at drug detox and alcohol and drug treatment programs in Browns Lake to help individuals through this process so that they don't relapse and may receive further rehabilitation services after detoxification.
