What Is Marijuana Addiction?

While marijuana is often viewed as a harmless or recreational substance, regular and prolonged use can lead to marijuana addiction, especially when it interferes with daily responsibilities or emotional well-being. Known clinically as Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD), this condition can cause physical dependence, withdrawal symptoms, and compulsive use.

At BetterChoice Treatment Center, our marijuana detox program helps individuals safely stop use and regain control—especially when tolerance and psychological dependence have developed.

Signs of Marijuana Addiction

Using marijuana daily or multiple times per day
Difficulty cutting back or stopping despite trying
Cravings or strong urges to use
Loss of interest in work, school, or social activities
Using marijuana to cope with stress, anxiety, or sleep
Feeling irritable, restless, or anxious when not using

Why Consider Marijuana Detoxification At BetterChoice

While marijuana is often perceived as harmless, long-term or heavy use can lead to dependence that impacts mental clarity, emotional health, and daily life. At BetterChoice Treatment Center, our medically supervised marijuana detox provides a structured, supportive path toward recovery. Here’s why detoxification can make all the difference:

Distance Yourself from Triggers

Trying to quit in the same environment where you developed the habit can make recovery more difficult. A change in setting helps remove daily stressors, peer pressure, and access to marijuana—giving you a clean slate to start healing.

Higher Success Rate

People who attempt to quit on their own often relapse due to cravings, mood swings, or lack of support. At BetterChoice, our structured detox environment and expert team increase your chances of success through round-the-clock care.

Get Personalized Medical Attention

Every journey to sobriety is different. Our licensed clinicians create a detox plan based on your unique health history, usage patterns, and psychological needs to help you detox safely and comfortably.

Long-term Support System

Detox is just the first step. We provide therapy, aftercare planning, and connections to continued treatment options so you’re never navigating recovery alone.

Holistic Treatment Approach

Healing is about more than just removing the substance—it’s about rebuilding your life. That’s why we integrate mindfulness, yoga, fitness, nutritional support, and emotional wellness therapies to help you recover fully—mind, body, and spirit.

What's Included In Our Program

At BetterChoice Treatment Center, our marijuana detox program is designed to help you feel safe, supported, and empowered from day one. We blend clinical expertise with a nurturing environment to ease withdrawal and lay the groundwork for lasting recovery. Here’s what you can expect:

Individual Therapy

Our licensed therapists work with you one-on-one to identify the emotional and psychological roots of marijuana dependency. Together, you’ll build healthier coping mechanisms and set goals for long-term sobriety.

Group therapy

You’ll connect with peers going through similar challenges in guided group sessions. These conversations foster a sense of belonging, reduce isolation, and help you learn from others in recovery.

Family Therapy Sessions

When appropriate, we invite families to participate in therapy to rebuild trust, improve communication, and provide tools for ongoing support after detox.

24/7 Supervision and Care

Detoxing from marijuana—especially after heavy use—can come with emotional swings and psychological discomfort. Our staff is available around the clock to ensure you’re safe, monitored, and cared for at every step.

Dual Diagnosis

Many individuals who misuse marijuana also experience co-occurring mental health issues like anxiety, depression, or trauma. Our integrated care model treats both conditions together for more complete healing.

Lots of Fun Activities

Recovery doesn’t have to feel clinical. Enjoy access to yoga, fitness, nature walks, games, and more—designed to help you relax, reconnect, and rediscover joy without substances.

Marijuana Withdrawal Symptoms

What Are the Signs of Marijuana Withdrawal?

Marijuana withdrawal typically begins within 24–72 hours after the last use and may last up to two weeks or longer, depending on usage patterns.

Common symptoms include:

At BetterChoice, we help manage these symptoms through structured daily routines, nutritious meals, therapy support, and holistic practices that restore mental and emotional balance.

Why Marijuana Detox Matters

Yes, You Can Become Dependent on Marijuana

While marijuana may not carry the same physical danger during withdrawal as opioids or alcohol, chronic use—especially high-potency THC products—can create physical and psychological dependency. Many individuals experience agitation, sleep disruption, irritability, and emotional instability when they try to quit on their own.

At our marijuana detox center in Las Vegas, we help clients navigate this often-overlooked phase of recovery with structure, stability, and professional support.

What Comes After Detox

Transition into Rehab to Address the Root Causes

Frequently Asked Questions

Is marijuana detox really necessary?

Yes. While marijuana withdrawal is typically not life-threatening, it can cause uncomfortable symptoms like insomnia, anxiety, irritability, and intense cravings. These symptoms can lead to relapse if not properly managed. A structured detox program provides a safe, supportive space to begin recovery.

Is marijuana actually addictive?

Yes. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, about 30% of people who use marijuana may develop a use disorder. When someone uses marijuana frequently and cannot stop despite negative consequences, professional treatment is often needed.

How long does marijuana detox take?

Marijuana detox typically lasts 7 to 14 days. However, THC (the psychoactive component of cannabis) can remain in the body for weeks, especially in heavy users. Withdrawal symptoms usually peak within the first week and gradually improve.

What are common withdrawal symptoms from marijuana?

Typical symptoms include:

• Irritability and mood swings
• Trouble sleeping or vivid dreams
• Loss of appetite
• Anxiety and restlessness
• Cravings for marijuana

Our detox team helps ease these symptoms through a combination of supportive care, therapy, and holistic wellness services.

Can I detox from marijuana at home?

While some people try to quit on their own, doing so without support increases the risk of relapse. In a supervised detox setting like BetterChoice, you’ll receive emotional support, structure, and expert guidance that makes the process easier and more effective.

Will I receive medication during marijuana detox?

There are no FDA-approved medications specifically for marijuana withdrawal, but we may provide supportive medications to help with anxiety, insomnia, or other discomforts. Each detox plan is personalized to fit your symptoms and medical history.

What happens after detox?

Detox is only the first step in recovery. After completing marijuana detox, clients at BetterChoice transition into inpatient rehab, where they receive therapy to address emotional triggers, learn coping skills, and begin building a sober lifestyle.

Marijuana Use & Addiction Statistics

Understanding the scope of marijuana use can highlight the importance of professional detox services. According to the National Institute on Drug Addiction (NIDA):

• Approximately 52.5 million Americans used cannabis at least once in 2021, making it the most commonly used federally illegal drug in the United States.

• In 2022, about 30.7% of 12th graders reported using cannabis in the past year.

• An estimated 30% of people who use marijuana may have some degree of marijuana use disorder.
