So basically I was smoking a bowl about to blow it out the window and my friends car pulled up who doesn't like me smoking cannabis. My bedroom is facing the road at the front of the house so I held in all the smoke and made an attempt to blow it out a window facing the back of the house. I made it only to the door before I started shaking uncontrollably, dropped both the deodorant and the bong and fell the ground shaking trying to use the wall to support me. I had a total mental blur for a split second. I'm a regular smoker and have been for years. Can anybody shed any light on this? It's got me worried. Thank you.
 
sounds like you blacked out from standing up to fast, along with holding a very large rip in, and tried to fight it!
 
Yeah you passed out, happens when you deprive your body of oxygen. You know you need that shit to breath homie.
 
That hot feeling of "rising" as the blood rushes to your head is called an elevation hit around here, some kids used to do it on purpose (deprive their brain of oxygen while they simultaneously got high on THC).

My best friend growing up did it twice and passed out and scared the shit outta me, one time he fell so hard at such an odd angle that he looked like he broke his damn neck! Fucker was a trooper though, woke up and shook it off like it was all part of the game.

This isnt a seizure though, OP, 2 completely different things going on here.
 
Oh ok sweet. Yeah that makes alot of sense. It was as soon as I woke up so I was very thirsty and not all there. Thanks for the fast replys.
 
"sounds like you blacked out from standing up to fast, along with holding a very large rip in, and tried to fight it!"

We used to call that a Mexican stand up or Mexican shotgun when I was a kid. I don't recommend this but what we would do is squat and hyperventilate then have someone give a shotgun as the person was standing up. To guarantee maximum head rush someone would give the person a bear hug as soon as they stood up. This would cause an intense head rush quickly followed by unconsciousness. I swear I could actually hear my brain cells popping when I used to do this. It also works without smoking any weed. Do yourself a favor and don't try it. I'm serious about that.
 
Sound like you just blacked out. I've had a couple of tonic clonic seizures in my lifetime and they usually follow a similar pattern for me.

It goes like this usually: Random neurological symptom (anxiety/hallucinations etc) -> Vision disturbances (flashing lights) -> Electric shocks going through the entire body causing muscles to contract and relax rapidly -> Severe pain (sometimes if unlucky and not going uncounciouss before it happens) -> Dream like state/blackout -> Aftereffects that can last days (dizziness, horrible headache, pain)
 
Cannabis is used to treat epilepsy and siezure-disorders, so it's safe to say that it's probably very rare for it to cause them, if it even can (I am skeptical this is possible).

Full agonists at the cb1/cb2 receptor can cause seizures at least. I think weed alone is too weak though. I've smoked weed while doing high dose benzo cold turkey and it didn't cause me any seizures, nor did it feel like it was going to. I think you would have to work for it to get a seizure from weed alone.
 
I guess it's just THC + getting up too fast
Nothing to worry about dude
Also it happened to me to faint after smoking weed, just a couple of tokes and my visione went blurry and evrrything went white and woke up minutes later laying on the ground
Neve happened again so I wouldn't worry
