Like other drugs, someone who has used marijuana for an extended period of time can become hooked on its effects and will experience withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the situation 10-20 years ago, which makes it an even larger problem.

Someone who uses marijuana frequently is really altering the way the brain functions, hence the brain can't just instantly return to normal operation when the person stops using marijuana, this may take time.
