Despite what efforts to legalize and popular culture wants you to believe, it's a verified and scientific proven fact that marijuana can be an addictive substance which can bring about both acute and long-term physical and psychological harm to users. Similar to other substances, someone who has used marijuana for an extended time period can become hooked on its effects and will experience withdrawal symptoms when they initially quit using marijuana. Individuals today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the situation 2 decades ago, making it an even bigger problem.

Someone that uses marijuana regularly is really changing how the brain functions, so the brain can't just automatically readjust to normal operation as soon as the individual stops using marijuana, this could take some 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 users will encounter withdrawal symptoms which can be challenging to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical in nature as heroin withdrawal for instance, but marijuana detox and withdrawal can cause severe depression as well as other mental symptoms for chronic users. That is why relapse is really common for individuals who attempt to stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be found at alcohol and drug detox and drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Kalama to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and may receive further treatment services after detoxification.
