Despite what initiatives to legalize and popular culture wants you to believe, it's a verified and scientific fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can lead to both acute and long-term physical and mental harm to users. Similar to other substances, anyone who has used marijuana for an extended time period can become dependent on its effects and definately will encounter withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the case two decades ago, making it an even bigger issue.

Someone that uses marijuana regularly is really altering how the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal operation once the individual stops using marijuana, this can take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like every other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from the body and the body readjusts to normal operation without marijuana. So marijuana detox is usually a challenge for long-term users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which are often difficult to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal as an example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause extreme depression and other psychological symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is so prevalent for those who try to quit using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be found at alcohol and drug detox and drug and alcohol treatment facilities in Muleshoe to help people through this course of action so they don't relapse and may receive further treatment services after detox.
