In spite of what initiatives to legalize and popular culture would lead you to think, it is a proven and conclusive proven fact that marijuana is an addictive substance which can cause both acute and long-term physical and psychological harm to users. Like other substances, anyone who has used marijuana for a prolonged time period will become addicted to its effects and can encounter withdrawal symptoms if they abruptly quit using marijuana. Individuals today have extremely high grade marijuana at their disposal which wasn't the situation 10-20 years ago, making it a much larger issue.

Someone who uses marijuana on a regular basis is significantly changing how the brain functions, so the brain can't just instantly readjust to normal operation as soon as the individual ceases using marijuana, this will 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 a challenge for habitual users, because users will encounter withdrawal symptoms which can be difficult to endure. These symptoms may not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal may cause extreme depression and other mental symptoms for chronic users. For this reason relapse is really prevalent for those who attempt to quit using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox solutions are available at drug and alcohol detoxification and drug treatment facilities in South Henderson to help people through this process so they don't relapse and may receive further treatment services following detoxification.
