I've been smoking pot for about seven years now and I used to take it just fine, I could go anywhere and do anything high. Now in the past year I get high and I come close to fainting and my heart starts racing and I get extreme anxiety. I have fainted a few times. Now the idea of going anywhere high is terrifying and there are only a few places I can smoke and not freak out.

    Stay hydrated and only smoke where you are comfortable.

    It's normal, but not ok. It's happened to me too. It's called a panic attack/acute anxiety. This can happen with a sudden large influx of THC into one's system suddenly. I don't know about you but I never wanna go through those feelings ever again . Just stop smoking weed.

    I'm am still a regular pot smoker. And I think I know the feeling you're talking about.
    Ill start off by asking you this; Are you a light weight?
    Not in a sense of body weight but what I mean by light weight is; Can you take a lot?
    If you don't have a high metabolism, You cant take a lot with out "Greening out" (Light headed, vomiting and fainting)
    Also, If you ate any of your weed you might just be extremley body high!
    Happy smoking!

    Maybe your in a different mindset atm? which has changed the way your body reacts to it. Because I know a couple of years ago when I was going through.a.bit of a rough patch my tolerance to weed totally changed and I would get real fuckt up from it, when normally it would only effect me mildly. Just cut bak for a bit or stop for a while :)

    increased heart and pulse rate is the common side effect of marijuana, surprised you realize after seven years. Unlike you i have the opposite affect. My heart rate will accelerate for maybe 30 minutes and then i just start coming back down.

    I used to toke and be high for atleast 2 hours and buzzed, nowadays i dont even get buzzed i just get mild and then end up procrastinating
