Despite what efforts to legalize and today's culture would lead you to think, it is a proven and conclusive proven fact that marijuana can be an addictive drug which may cause both acute and long-term physical and psychological injury to users. Similar to other substances, someone who has used marijuana for an extended period of time can become hooked on its effects and can experience withdrawal symptoms if they initially 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 larger issue.

Someone that uses marijuana regularly is really altering how the brain functions, and so the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal function as soon as the individual stops using marijuana, this can take 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 can be quite a challenge for long-term users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which are often tough 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 severe depression and other psychological symptoms for long-term users. That is why relapse is so common for many who try to stop using marijuana on their own. Marijuana detox solutions are offered at drug and alcohol detox and drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Junction City to help people through this process so they don't relapse and can receive further rehab services after detox.
