In spite of what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it is a verified and conclusive undeniable fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can bring about both short and long-term physical and psychological harm to users. Much like other substances, someone who has used marijuana for an extended period of time can become addicted to its effects and will experience withdrawal symptoms should they initially quit using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't true 2 decades ago, which makes it a much bigger problem.

Somebody who uses marijuana often is really changing the way the brain functions, so the brain can't just instantly readjust to normal operation when the person stops using marijuana, this will take some time. Individuals 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 can be quite a challenge for habitual users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which can be challenging to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal might cause extreme depression and other psychological symptoms for chronic users. That is why relapse is so common for many who try and quit using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are offered at drug and alcohol detoxification and drug rehab facilities in Springhill to help people through this process so they don't relapse and can receive further rehabilitation services after detoxification.
