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

This happened a few times with friends. They just dropped like a rock and then were pale for a few hours. It's not uncommon but I would avoid smoking if it keeps happening. Being knocked out for 5-10 minutes is a long time. Passing out is generally considered a medical emergency.

Oh, it was. I spent an hour in the festival medical tent
