Why would one participate in a marijuana rehab?

It's important to make the distinction between use and abuse. Marijuana, alike alcohol, can be used recreationally without permanent side effects on people's everyday lives and routines. People do indeed go to rehab for marijuana, the statistics for this is highly controversial in the U.S. as many adolescents will, after being arrested for possession, be either offered a spot in rehab or one in jail. Obviously, many choose the former. Marijuana is physically addictive to a degree, but most people who develop a marijuana addiction use it as means of self-medicating, and it is rarely, if ever, the physical aspect that keeps the addiction going. So to your question, yes, people do certainly go to rehab for marijuana. It is a potent intoxicant and should not be underestimated.
