Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Your symptoms are likely to be due to an overdose of the drug you have been taking. Most of the recreational substances cause such symptoms.
You need to attend an ER for evaluation of your symptoms and proper treatment.
Try not to panic and do not drive yourself. Do take a close friend or a family member with you.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
