In spite of what initiatives to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it is a verified and scientific proven fact that marijuana is an addictive substance which can lead to both short and long-term physical and mental harm to users. Much like other drugs, somebody who has used marijuana for an extended time period will become dependent on its effects and definately will encounter withdrawal symptoms if they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case twenty years ago, making it an even larger issue.

Somebody who uses marijuana often is really altering how the brain functions, and so the brain can't just instantly readjust to normal operation when the individual ceases using marijuana, this could take time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as the drug is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to normal operation without marijuana. So marijuana detox could be a challenge for habitual users, because users will encounter withdrawal symptoms which are often tough to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal as an example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal may cause extreme depression and other psychological symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is so common for those who try and cease using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be obtained at drug and alcohol detox and drug and alcohol treatment facilities in New Brunswick to help people through this process so that they don't relapse and may receive further treatment services following detoxification.
