Hello,

Avoid smoking marijuana when your system is so sensitive to it. Your symptom of numbness is a side effect of marijuana intake.

Continue to take the medicine (Quetiapine fumarate) prescribed by your doctor. It will help your concentration & reduce your side effects.

Do not depend only on the medicine prescribed. Detox yourself. Drink plenty of water, do workouts to flush it out through the sweat, if you have a fast metabolism & low BMI, it will be flushed out faster.

You can take detox drinks, take fruits & veggies to avoid red meat, greasy food.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
