Are Hallucinations Normal After Smoking Marijuana?

Hi, 24 hours ago (approx) I smoked a bit of marijuana. I do not have much tolerance as I use marijuana very seldomly (less than 5 times/year. However approximately 14 hours after the initial "high" wore off I began to notice it was coming back. A friend recommended caffeine and propranolol, both of which I promptly consumed. (60mg caffeine and 10mg of propranolol). Is this reccomended? Have I potentially damaged anything? I did not experience visual or auditory hallucinations. I do not take any other medications.

Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Marijuana is a recreational drug and it has a hallucinating effect on brain leading to feeling of being into dream world and seeing and hearing what is not happening in real..
Intake of caffine with or after marijuana helps in maintaining activeness although no sure shot research is there..
The effect of the weed will take some time to wear off from body and takes mostly 48 hours to get back to normal but at times the toxins present in the body for long time can also led to the side effects for even week..
There is nothing as of damaged but the best way to prevent getting into the abnormal conditions of brain is by avoiding smoking the weed..

Hope this information helps..
