Very wierd symptoms after smoking weed and other drugs... ruins the whole high, help!

[gman7104]

So last summer I went from only smoking weed to do the occasionally rolls, opiates, and cough syrup. (which I stopped)

One night, I was getting high as fuck off of some shitty outdoor when I experienced a series of very intense episodes, which I believe to be presyncopes (a state before passing out that can occur from low blood pressure and other things) where my vision turned into colors and "static", I had very intense ear ringing and (on that particular night) a loss of hearing, and trouble speaking. These episodes went on until I feel asleep (by that time my high was gone due to paranoia so the episodes were pretty much over)

Ever since, when I catch more than a buzz off weed, these symptoms come back, though not nearly to the same extent.

It starts off with low ear ringing and gets louder and louder. I will experience a significantly stronger body high than the body high you should experience off weed (and it's not at all euphoric or relaxing) the euphoria and relaxation from weed will be replaced by a feeling of somewhat lightheadedness, which covers the euphoria completely.

I will also have minor hallucinations, like seeing things in a shade of color or seeing wierd patterns.

When I go to bed, the ear ringing becomes the worst and it TORMENTS me, keeping me awake and fucking up my high.

If I mix two depressents, (e.g oxycodone and weed) it becomes way worse and unbearable. (However, opiates alone do not induce these symptoms, thank god)

I try to breathe harder or move around to raise my blood pressure, and although walking helps it dosen't get rid of it, and if I lie down or sit it will come right back.


These symptoms have ruined weed for me. I strongly believe it has something to do with not enough oxygen getting to my brain, but I'm desperate for a remedy.

If anyone knows how I can get rid of it or if anyone simply knows WTF is happening to me it would be greatly appreciated.

This really isn't TDS material. Perhaps Basic Drug Discussion?

BDD mods, apologies if this doesn't belong

TDS --> BDD

Hmmm let me get this straight. Whenever you smoke weed you get lightheaded, have a ringing in your ears, feel a little paranoid, and mildly hallucinate?

Sorry to say, but IMO you need to see a doctor. Presyncope can turn really dangerous if you actually do have a syncope episode, you could fall or imagine if you're driving... I had one in my kitchen about a year ago, I had just started Seroquel and I guess it lowered my blood pressure, and I fracture my elbow. I am not a doctor, but perhaps your blood pressure is fluctuating a lot - just a theory. The presyncope state could indicate low blood pressure, and the ear ringing could indicate high blood pressure, but I'm sure it could be something else as well.

I dunno, at least it'd be a good idea to stop smoking weed for now.

I've had this happen to me one time. I actually kinda liked it..and I fell asleep like a baby...but It does come back to me on opiates with weed. I know exactly what you're talking about.

I haven't had an "episode" since that one night. I am completely in control when I get them now, and the symptoms aren't very hindering at all in terms of functioning, they're just a complete buzzkill.

It only happens when I get pretty high, and I never drive past a buzz (I don't drive much at all since I don't have a car though)

And since they only happen when I'm high, I'd have to tell a doctor that it happens when I smoke weed... he would just say that you need to stop doing drugs or whatever.


And yes there is the possiblility of having a syncope... but I just really doubt it. It only happens when I relax (not when i'm walking or doing something) so I doubt i'd injure myself. Once they start walking dosen't get rid of them much but they will never start if I'm doing anything but relaxing.

I'm 5'11 so I'm pretty tall.

Good thing I don't need SSRI's i'd really be fucked lol.


I just want to know what caused it... never happened until one night and now it happens every time i get pretty high, obviously something changed in my body that night, idk.


It might have something to do with my very drastic weight loss. I was pretty obese prior to my ecstasy use, after 9 rolls and a few other uppers here and there I was skinny as a crackhead by the end of summer. Just a theory.
