Marijuana Detox and Addiction Treatment

At Granite Recovery Centers, we offer caring support for people struggling with marijuana use. Our team provides tailored care to anyone in New Hampshire and Maine so they can achieve recovery.

What Is Marijuana Withdrawal and Why Does It Happen?

When you use weed often, your body gets used to having THC in your system. In fact, according to SAMHSA, around 1 in 10 people who use this drug develop a marijuana addiction. This is because your brain adapts to these chemicals, and when you stop, your body needs to adjust.

Using weed frequently leads to both physical and mental dependence. You need more over time to feel the same effects. When you quit, your body works hard to find balance again. If you’re thinking about weed rehab, understanding how withdrawal occurs helps you prepare for a safe detox.

Cannabis Withdrawal Symptoms and Timeline

Most people feel weed withdrawal symptoms 1-3 days after quitting. These often include:

  • Mood swings and feeling irritable
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Not feeling hungry
  • Strong urges to use it again
  • Headaches
  • Feeling restless
  • Worry and stress

Symptoms are the worst in the first week and get better over 2-3 weeks. How long and how bad they are depends on how much you used, how strong the drug was, and your overall health. Learning how long marijuana stays in your system helps you set clear goals for your THC detox and recovery.

What Helps With Marijuana Withdrawal?

Several things can make a cannabis detox program easier:

  • Drinking plenty of water
  • Eating healthy meals
  • Getting regular exercise
  • Talking with a counselor
  • Getting good sleep
  • Having people who support you

We provide 24/7 care during marijuana detox, helping you deal with weed cravings and making withdrawal more comfortable. For many, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) helps ease symptoms. At Granite, MAT is only an option for stable clients who can self-evacuate in an emergency.

Getting professional marijuana addiction treatment gives you the best chance for lasting recovery. Our cannabis rehab in NH and ME uses caring methods that keep you comfortable. We:

  • Check you fully when you first arrive
  • Watch over you during detox
  • Offer therapy for both addiction and mental health
  • Teach you about weed dependence

Our marijuana detox center gives you a safe place away from triggers. Many people we help also need dual diagnosis treatment for both drug use and mental health issues.
