What Causes Blurry Vision, Choking Sensation, Delirium And Anxiety After Overdosing On Marijuana?
Question: Hi I overdose a pot by eating it. I am not a regular user and it was my first time. I am super skinny too I weigh only 39-40kg and my height is 5'0. After my overdose a week later I have had side effects such as blur vision, choking sensation, numbness in my head, delirium, anxiety and panic attacks. It's been over 3 weeks and I still feel dizzy, my neck and head hurts like there's little hammer pounding. Sometimes I wake up and my vision is complete blur I can't barely see anything. My eyes has a strange color too like yellow reddish color but its not that obvious. What can I do to help my brain recover from intoxication? Any food or supplement you can suggest?

Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for sending the question.
I am sorry that you seem to have consumed an excessive amount of this particular substance. I would recommend that you avoid using the substance for the rest of your life. At this time you should focus on good hydration and good nutrition.
I would make sure to drink at least 2 L of water per day.make sure that you eat a good well-balanced diet with plenty of vegetables and a balance of protein and carbohydrates.
It is all support and for you to get a little bit of exercise as well. It may take a little bit more time for you to get back to your normal state of well-being.
Lastly I would recommend that you make an appointment to see your primary care physician for a good physical examination as soon as possible. You may need to have some laboratory testing performed.
