What Could Be The Reason For The Dizziness, Black Vision And Feeling Very Hot After Smoking Marijuana?

This was a few years ago, I smoked marijuana and shortly after, I felt very dizzy, had black vision, and felt very hot. I remember I even found the immediate need to lay down on the ground since this was the coolest part of the room which was pretty embarrassing as this was at my then current boyfriend's friend's house. It was pretty scary but it ended maybe within an hour. Just curious what this may have been, never really had the chance to ask. This was definitely one of the more scariest moments in my life. Please and thank you for answering my question!!

Hi,

It is normal to have such reaction after smoking marijuana. Usually, few minutes after smoking marijuana, the heart beats and blood pressure are increased; while the little oxygen is carried out.

This explains your symptoms after smoking marijuana and feeling hot.

Please do consider it as a sign from your body to warn you that marijuana is not suitable to you.

Please bare in mind that you have high chances to get stroke or heart attack the next time you will smoke marijuana.

Hope it helped!
