I've been searching everywhere for someone with a similar experience, but havn't found anything. So here goes:

I was having a lonesome night, so I decided to smoke a small bowl and relax with a movie. I would consider myself an 'experienced' smoker - smoked for about 5 yrs, regularly for about 2. So this was no big deal. I had a few drinks as well, but nothing over normal. So I enjoyed the movie and everything was great. By the time the movie was over, I noticed that I seemed unusally baked for how much I had smoked. I didn't think anything of it, and decided I needed to pee and go to bed. So made my way to the bathroom to pee. When I was done, I must have stood up too fast, as my vision started to go as it sometimes does when anyone does this. I steadied myself then realized that my legs weren't going to support me. I feel to the floor, my vision and motor skills completly gone. I started convulsing, but might not have even known it if it wasn't for my head which kept banging against the closed door. I don't know if any/how much time passed after I stopped having this 'mini-seizure' or whatever. At some point my vision came back and I stood up, very shaken but alright.

I had seen this happen to a guy in Amsterdamn - the woman working at the bar gave him sugar water. Remembering this, I grabbed a coke and headed for bed.

I am wondering if anyone else had an experience like this, whether I did the right thing, or what should I do if this happens again. (also, what causes it? low blood sugar?)
