Despite what efforts to legalize and today's culture would lead you to think, it's a verified and conclusive proven fact that marijuana can be an addictive drug which may cause both short and long-term physical and psychological harm to users. Similar to other drugs, anyone who has used marijuana for a prolonged period of time will become addicted to its effects and definately will experience withdrawal symptoms when they initially stop using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the situation two decades ago, making it an even larger issue.

Somebody that uses marijuana frequently is really changing the way the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically return to normal operation as soon as the person ceases using marijuana, this will take time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from your body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox is usually a challenge for habitual users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which are often tough to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression as well as other psychological symptoms for long-term users. For this reason relapse is really prevalent for those who try to quit using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are available at alcohol and drug detoxification and drug rehabilitation programs in White Oak to help people through this process so they don't relapse and may receive further rehab services following detoxification.
