Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture would lead you to believe, it's a verified and conclusive fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which may bring about both acute and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Similar to other drugs, somebody who has used marijuana for an extended time period can become hooked on its effects and will experience withdrawal symptoms when they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the case 10-20 years ago, which makes it an even bigger problem.

Someone that uses marijuana often is really changing how the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal function once the individual ceases using marijuana, this can take some 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 a challenge for habitual users, because individuals 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 may cause severe depression as well as other mental symptoms for long-term users. For this reason relapse is really common for those who try and stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services are offered at alcohol and drug detox and alcohol and drug rehab centers in Marathon City to help individuals through this course of action so that they don't relapse and can receive further treatment services after detox.
