Is it possible to overdose on cannabis?
While it is not possible to fatally overdose on cannabis, it is certainly possible to consume too much at once. Taking an excessive amount can lead to uncomfortable symptoms such as nausea, dizziness, paranoia, and heightened anxiety. These effects are often more pronounced when consuming edibles, which take longer to take effect and can lead to overconsumption if you’re not patient.
To avoid these symptoms, it’s essential to start with the lowest possible dose, especially if you’re new to cannabis or trying a new product. Wait at least 30-60 minutes before considering taking more, as the effects can take time to fully manifest. Overconsumption can result in a more intense and prolonged experience than anticipated, which can be overwhelming.
If you do consume too much, the effects will eventually wear off, but it’s important to stay calm, hydrate, and rest. In any case, always follow the recommended dosage guidelines provided by the manufacturer and be mindful of your tolerance levels to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
