What Causes Scary And Weird Effects After Smoking Drug?

I smoked weed today (not the first time but I don't a lot) and it had some scary weird effects. At first I just wanted to lay down, then I had trouble walking and staying up. After that I got in the car and started dropping sweat and felt like my face and ears were burning up. When I got home I went and layed down. As I was resting I kept hearing noises and seeing mixtures and combinations or several things and objects of my past that I've remembered but they were all combined. This all past after about 2 hours and I feel fine now. I don't know why I reacted like this when I haven't before. PS: I was extremely paranoid and afraid something serious was going to happen.

Hi..
Can understand your concern..

As per your complain weed and other impurities added in it has side effects like lowering of blood pressure specifically Orthostatic hypotension in which there is lowering of blood pressure while standing up leading to difficulty in standing and walking, increase in heart rate, sweating,and another common side effect is HALLUCINATIONS that is listening and seeing what is not actually happening and feeling of detachment from body..
Lowering of blood pressure can cause sweating and burning of face and ear..

These side effects are more common in infrequent users who do not have tolerance to the drug..
All these are intoxicating side effects and can continue form few hours to even a week after smoking..

I would suggest you to completely stop smoking weed as it is very harmful for the body and long term use can have severe deleterious effects on the body..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
