Still feeling dizzy....

I am a 44 year old male of slim build and good health....over 1 week ago I smoked cannabis for the first time in my life.

I got a little carried away and smoked around 3 or 4 joints in a 24 hour period along with some alcohol and cigarettes.

Not sure the strength of the cannabis.

8 days later i still feel a little dizzy in my head but am perfectly lucid and able to carry out my daily business without a problem.

Firstly is this normal and secondly will it wear off.....and if so, how long?

Dang usually the dizziness is when your high, you must have smoked a lot more to stay high 8 days and where can I find what you got? Lol I'm sure it's nothing problem just being sober your whole life and finally doing it is weird for you makes you feel different now that you have been high. I'm sure your fine I wouldn't think about it *** much but weed dose stay in your system to up to a month (I think) probably less for you since you barely smoked any. If you don't think its that big of an issue I would just ride it out, like what the post ahead of me
Said it could just be anxiety of it being your first time, another thing is a
Few days after smoking weed your head clears up and you take deeper breaths so you get high of oxygen that could also be a reason. Either way if your a healthy person I'm sure your fine weed hasn't killed anyone.

Hi Sam,

There is no way for us to be able to tell you how long the dizziness will last. Most likely the weed was tainted with something. Who knows now a days. I just want to express that much of it could be anxiety. If it is something you idd for the first time and did a lot of it you may just be anxious and that can cause dizziness. If it does not subside then you should see your doctor and rule out any other health problems. Do you plan on smoking it again?
