Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it's a proven and conclusive proven fact that marijuana can be an addictive drug which can bring about both acute and long-term physical and mental injury to users. Like other drugs, somebody who has used marijuana for an extended period of time will become hooked on its effects and can encounter withdrawal symptoms if they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana available which wasn't the situation twenty years ago, which makes it a much bigger issue.

Somebody who uses marijuana often is significantly altering how the brain functions, and so the brain can't just automatically return to normal operation once the person stops using marijuana, this will take time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any 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 experience withdrawal symptoms which can be challenging to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal for instance, but marijuana detox and withdrawal might cause extreme depression along with other psychological symptoms for long-term users. This is why relapse is really common for those who try and cease using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be obtained at alcohol and drug detoxification and drug and alcohol rehab centers in Bath to help people through this process so they don't relapse and may receive further rehabilitation services following detox.
