In spite of what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it's a verified and scientific undeniable fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can cause both short and long-term physical and mental harm to users. Similar to other drugs, anyone who has used marijuana for an extended time period will become addicted to its effects and can encounter withdrawal symptoms whenever they initially quit using marijuana. Individuals today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the situation 10-20 years ago, making it a much bigger issue.

Someone who uses marijuana regularly is really altering the way the brain functions, therefore the brain can't just instantly readjust to normal function when the individual ceases using marijuana, this can take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to normal operation without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be a challenge for long-term users, because individuals will encounter withdrawal symptoms which may be tough to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal as an example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression along with other mental symptoms for chronic users. This is the reason relapse is so common for individuals who make an attempt to stop using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are available at drug and alcohol detox and drug rehabilitation facilities in Leonia to help individuals through this process so that they don't relapse and may obtain further treatment services after detoxification.
