Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to think, it's a proven and conclusive undeniable fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can lead to both short and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Much like other drugs, a person who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period can become addicted to its effects and may encounter withdrawal symptoms when they abruptly stop using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't true two decades ago, making it an even larger issue.

Someone that uses marijuana on a regular basis is significantly changing the way the brain functions, and so the brain can't just instantly return to normal function when the individual ceases using marijuana, this could take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from your body and the body readjusts to function without marijuana. So marijuana detox could be a challenge for habitual users, because users will encounter withdrawal symptoms that may be hard to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal by way of example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal could cause extreme depression as well as other psychological symptoms for long-term users. This is why relapse is so prevalent for individuals who try and stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services are offered at drug detox and drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Lake Mills to help individuals through this process so that they don't relapse and may receive further rehab services following detox.
