Is it normal to lose oxygen to the brain while smoking weed &/or dabs?

This has happened to me the last few days, one times I was conscious but my legs were shaking rapidly but I couldnt mentally control myself, then the next day I smoked and held it in for a good high I ended up shaking uncontrollably and broke my studio chair, then earlier tonight I smoked again but I was sitting in a couch, felt fine for a minute then it hit me just before I was gonna exhale that my head shook but I heard a noise and I didnt even feel it but I smashed the back of my skull through the wall. I believe this is oxygen loss from my brain from holding in a hit, sticking my head up to the sky, and holding the hit as long as possible. Please be nice answers. This has never happened before.

    I signed up to this site just to comment for u!. Im older and a mom of 3. One kid 19, and i smoked weed daily for years so I do know a lot about this stuff lol. OK what u have is a condition similar to a seizure brought on only by smoking weed. Its like epilepsy, but like I said, only triggered in weed.. I have known 2 other ppl in my life w same condition. It is quite rare. They usually convulse a bit ( or not), and pass out as soon as they smoke it. Then wake up maybe 3 mins later fine. Although my friends lost teeth and had head injuries from falling! Its an intolerance to weed. Like a severe allergy. Your doctor will know exactly what its called. I would say u got no choice but to quit.its NOT from lack of oxygen to brain. That's called hypoxia and results from several long minutes of no air to brain, like drowning or sleep apnea. It would leave u blue and gasping, damn near dead. The tremors in your head and the symptoms u describe are definitely what I believe is a weed seizure. You'll be fine though if u quit.

    You will only get oxygen deprivation from holding hits in too long/taking hits too fast without breathing a good amount in between. You only gotta hold a hit in for 3 seconds. 98% of the cannabinoids are absorbed within 3 seconds so any longer is a damaging waste.

    you're probably just smoking too fast. it can happen when you smoke a cigarette as well. just get some fresh air
