The marijuana effect is gone by 24 hrs. Sooner actually. And it is common to have reactions to unexpected drugging for days afterwards as a psychological effect. Reassurance would be the first thing (long term effects from the drug don't happen). And cognitive behavioral therapy for a very short time would also be helpful.
