I’ve never been a big user, but as I’ve grown older, pot has made me pass out more than once. I took a drag off of a joint at a festival a few years ago and passed out and couldn’t be revived for 5-10 minutes. They said my blood pressure dropped dramatically. I’m wondering if this happens to anybody else

I have experienced this, a grand total of twice, but not for 5-10 minutes (once I was in a towel and came back around vibrating on the floor which was confusing but probably was the longest one at a minute or two).

I was a chronic joint smoker and would get lightheaded standing up in general. Typically since having switched to vaping it no longer happens. Is the high otherwise pleasurable for you?

Do you have a heart/lung/blood pressure condition in general?

Everything is good on me, but I was standing when it happened.

Apparently not, your blood pressure dropped and you passed out.

I wouldnt call that everything is good
