Have you ever had a seizure from smoking too much weed or know of someone who has?
I think I have.I've been smoking weed for a few years now and I have been struggling to quit. So what happens is I quit for a few weeks and sometimes months and then I'm back on it. I recently started smoking again after quiting for two months.My brother and I were hitting a bong last night. I had more than four or five bowls. After that I started feeling very light headed and dizzy, almost on the verge of fainting. I wasn't worried because this has happened to me before. Once when I had never smoked weed and twice when I smoked too much. I later learned that these faintings happened cause it was really hot at the time and I had barely anything to eat.Last night however, got worse after a few seconds. The room was swimming. I thought to go up to my room but I could barely walk. I felt like I couldn't control my legs and the direction I was walking in. I finally made it up the stairs and went to the bathroom instead. I don't remember making the decision to do this and my room is in the opposite direction. In the bathroom I started shaking uncontrollably. I really struggled to keep myself up. At this point I think I passed out for a second because when I came to, I was on the floor. I don't remember how I got on the floor and assume I fell.For about 5 seconds everything was clear. I felt completely fine and headed to my room but the dizziness started up again. I woke up on my bed after what couldn't be more than a couple of minutes. Again, no recollection of how I got there and I had a loud ringing sound in my ear for a while. My brother came to check on me and I asked him to bring me a glass of water with lots of sugar in it (I assumed my sugar level was low). I felt a bit a better and fell asleep almost immediately.I'm not entirely sure what happened to me last night but I am more than sure it was caused by the weed I smoked. That experience scared the hell out of me and I know for sure that I will never smoke weed again. I don't want to risk putting myself in such a situation ever again.
Passed out/ seizure after smoking weed?
I don't know if you have any medical conditions but seizures are serious. I never heard of people get seizures from smoking weed (if anything the opposite) but if that's the case I suggest you should stop. Its common to not get high the first time or two you smoke and you obviously don't have any tolerance. If you were smoking hash oil (you may have been considering that you were using a vape) than that would explain why you got so high. Other than that, you should either quit or try not smoking as much and maybe learn your limits. Hopes this helps!
Seizure from smoking weed?
When you smoke weed, it does funny things to your blood pressure. Generally, it's known to increase blood pressure. However, when high and sitting still for long periods of time, it can slow it right down. So if you've been chilling for 40 minutes on the couch getting crazy high, your blood pressure will have dropped loads. You stand up, and straight away your blood pressure increases rapidly. Think getting out of a hot bath - you've been chilling for a long time and your heart rate is probably low, but you are warm so veins and arteries are dilated. As soon as you start moving, whoooosh, head rush. It's a similar story with weed. I think this is how it works, at least. It happens to me quite often and is referred to as 'whiteying' round here, because of the white colour of your face when passing out.

Can smoking weed or smoking shisha cause a seizure?
Its possible either one of them could, it depends on your epilepsy and where it is in your brain. Since a seizure is just your brains neurons misfiring a drug could easily trigger it. One person said sheesha wouldn't cause one but it certainly could. Unless you've smoked cigarettes before and had no effect. Since sheesha is similar to cigarettes in that they both enhance your dopamine, your reaction to one should be the same to another. Honestly the only way you can know is to try it out. I've had epilepsy my whole life and I have tried tons of different drugs, which was stupid but none gave me a seizures. But I have not had a seizure since 2nd grade. When you do test these out make sure you are in an environment you feel safe and comfortable in. Make sure you have your epipen and that the people there know you have epilepsy. Someone there should be sober so they could react promptly if something goes wrong. Be safe and have fun!
Can smoking weed cause seizures? Please answer?
T.H.C. did not cause your seizure. It was probably not eating, not taking your medication or a fever that brought it on. I have had epilepsy for ten years and actually got a prescription FOR marijuana here in California. During the first five years I had 31 grand-mal seizures thanks to not having the right combination of seizure medication. During those five years I did not smoke weed on six seperate occasions for not having it available and I had a seizure on every one of those six days. Marijuana has NO toxins and helps slow down the brain-waves from moving three times as fast as a normal person. It doesn't help the spikes but it helps the rythem. Now that I'm on the correct combination of meds(topomax and Dilantin) I dont have to smoke to stop my seizures anymore but it ws absolutly neccessary when I was not on the topomax. I haven't had a seizure in five years and smoke ganja daily. Marijauna is natures way to stay HEALTHY! So toke, eat, and sleep your way into tommorrow. Everybody has different reactions to drugs(presribed or not) so if smoking is not for you then dont do it. Just dont confuse the reason for your seizure on weed. The reason for your seizure is because of a a lack of communication between the nuerons in your brain. Marijuana by itself cannot cause that but alcohol will, I had a seizure from ONE sip. It was that one sip, no smoke, and a lack of having food available to eat on that day. Take your medications daily, eat something, get some rest, and if you have to smoke weed to stop your grand-mal seizures than by every means I would do so. It taste great, feels good, and has virtually no side-affects. As you can tell, I haven't lost the billion of brain cells in my head by daily use of marijuana for over SIXTEEN years. I can still understand why E=MC2 and why it is so important to stop having black-outs thanks to an attack of an invisible force. Marijuana has NO TOXINS and helps to STOP the onset of seizure activity and I am living proof. (or you can believe a doctor who DOESN'T have epilepsy and does not approve of the legalization of a plant that will stop THEIR profit of presribing meds with so many side affects that are mainly unknown unless we tell them!)You still have a brain even if one of the lobes aren't working properly your decision making STILL IS! Do what YOU feel is right and I'm feeling mighty blessed and irie right now after five years of seizure-free living. I DO NOT SNIFF the COKE I ONLY SMOKE the SINSIMILLA!!!
Why do I have seizures after smoking weed and getting into a hot shower?
You should see a neurologist, period. Seizures can be life-threatening. You should definitely stop using cannabis until you do.Despite the use of cannabis to treat seizure disorders, cannabis can also be pro-convulsant in some people. Seizure disorders are varied and complex, so discuss cannabis as a potential trigger with your doctor ASAP.There are descriptions of a condition called cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. The key symptom is morning nausea directly associated with cannabis use that can be relieved by a hot shower. It is uncommon, but hundreds of cases have been described. The hot shower seizure trigger sounds as if it could be related to this syndrome. Get professional help and you might get some real answers.
How did you feel after you quit smoking weed?
My head felt lighter, my thoughts came easier, and I dreamed and dreamed; something I do not do when smoking marijuana.
