Hello, all of the symptoms you are describing are common side effects from smoking cannabis, it raises blood pressure which elevates heart rate sometimes causing palpitations. If cannabis is causing anxiety or paranoia then you should not use it, these symptoms will disappear as long as you stay away from the drug.
