Similar to other substances, a person who has used marijuana for an extended time period will become hooked on its effects and may experience withdrawal symptoms should they abruptly quit using marijuana. Users today have very high grade marijuana available which wasn't the situation twenty years ago, which makes it a much bigger issue.

Someone that uses marijuana often is significantly altering how the brain functions, hence the brain can't just instantly return to normal operation when the individual stops using marijuana, this may take some time. People actually detox from marijuana, like any other drug, as marijuana is eliminated from your body and the body readjusts to normal operation without marijuana. So marijuana detox can be a challenge for habitual users, because users will experience withdrawal symptoms which can be hard to endure. These symptoms might not be as physical as it is with heroin withdrawal for example, but marijuana detox and withdrawal might cause severe depression along with other mental symptoms for long-term users. For this reason relapse is so common for those who try to stop using marijuana by themselves. Marijuana detox services can be obtained at drug and alcohol detox and drug and alcohol rehab centers in WaKeeney to help individuals through this process so they don't relapse and may obtain further rehab services following detox.
