Despite what efforts to legalize and today's culture wants you to believe, it is a verified and conclusive indisputable fact that marijuana is an addictive drug which can bring about both acute and long-term physical and psychological harm to users. Like other substances, someone who has used marijuana for an extended period of time can become hooked on its effects and definately will experience withdrawal symptoms whenever they initially quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the situation 2 decades ago, which makes it a much larger problem.

Someone that uses marijuana on a regular basis is significantly changing how the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal function when the person ceases using marijuana, this will take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as the drug is eliminated from your body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be a challenge for long-term users, because individuals will encounter withdrawal symptoms which can be challenging to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal by way of example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal may cause severe depression and other psychological symptoms for chronic users. This is why relapse is so prevalent for those who try and cease using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox services are available at drug and alcohol detoxification and drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Essex to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and may obtain further treatment services after detoxification.
