Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it's a proven and scientific undeniable fact that marijuana is definitely an addictive substance which can bring about both acute and long-term physical and mental injury to users. Much like other substances, anyone who has used marijuana for a prolonged period of time will become addicted to its effects and will experience withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have extremely high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case 10-20 years ago, which makes it a much bigger problem.

Someone that uses marijuana frequently is really altering the way the brain functions, hence the brain can't just automatically return to normal function when the individual ceases using marijuana, this can take time. Individuals actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as the drug is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be quite a challenge for habitual users, because individuals will experience withdrawal symptoms that may be tough to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal may cause severe depression as well as other psychological symptoms for chronic users. This is the reason relapse is so common for many who try to stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox solutions are offered at drug and alcohol detoxification and alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Holbrook to help people through this process so they don't relapse and can receive further treatment services following detoxification.
