The Growing Need for a Marijuana Addiction Treatment Program
Marijuana works by overstimulating certain parts of the brain that house large numbers of these natural brain cell receptors. Furthermore, this is what causes the “high” associated with marijuana use, and is the feeling that users begin to chase. Moreover, prolonged marijuana abuse can and does lead to increase tolerance, dependency, and in some cases, full-blown marijuana addiction.
Marijuana addiction is typically not dangerous, but it can result in delayed brain development and functions. Users who begin experimenting with marijuana at a young age often experience impaired thinking, memory loss, and various learning impairments.
Today, marijuana addiction is responsible for more drug rehab enrollments than any other substance, second only to alcohol. Additionally, if you’ve been unable to stop abusing marijuana on your own, consider finding professional marijuana addiction treatment. You can overcome the abuse and develop healthy habits for maintaining lifelong results.
