Despite what initiatives to legalize and today's culture wants you to think, it is a verified and conclusive indisputable fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can bring about both short and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Similar to other substances, someone who has used marijuana for an extended period of time can become dependent on its effects and definately will encounter withdrawal symptoms whenever they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the case twenty years ago, making it an even larger issue.

Someone who uses marijuana often is really altering how the brain functions, hence the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal operation once the person stops using marijuana, this could take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be quite a challenge for habitual users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which can be difficult to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for instance, but marijuana detox and withdrawal might cause severe depression and other mental symptoms for long-term users. This is why relapse is so prevalent for many who try and stop using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are offered at drug detoxification and drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Bressler Enhaut Oberlin to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and may obtain further treatment services following detox.
