Despite what initiatives to legalize and popular culture would lead you to believe, it's a proven and scientific proven fact that marijuana is an addictive drug which can lead to both short and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Similar to other drugs, anyone who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period will become addicted to its effects and definately will experience withdrawal symptoms whenever they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the situation 2 decades ago, making it a much bigger problem.

Somebody that uses marijuana on a regular basis is really changing the way the brain functions, and so the brain can't just automatically return to normal operation as soon as the individual stops 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 quite a challenge for long-term users, because users will encounter withdrawal symptoms which are often challenging to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for instance, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause severe depression along with other psychological symptoms for chronic users. For this reason relapse is so prevalent for those who try and quit using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services are available at drug and alcohol detox and drug rehab programs in Hambleton to help individuals through this process so that they don't relapse and can receive further rehab services following detox.
