Okay, about 8 months ago I got high for the first time. (On JUST weed.) I was upset over the loss of a family member, and did way too much. Everything was spinning, etc.
Anyway, since then, I have periods of mental lapse, as in, i'll forget something RIGHT after I do it. Or, i'll feel like i'm having an out of body experience.
As crazy as this all sounds, i'm completely sane, and I haven't done ANY drug since.
Could there be something wrong?

Nothing's wrong with you that will not go away.

you're fine, but I think you may be starting to experience anxiety/panic attacks.
This is completely treatable and it's nothing serious.
There has been evidence that shows a bad run in with a street drug can induce anxiety/panic at the slightest hint of any symptom you had during the high.
People have those mental lapses all the time...its completely normal. The out of body experience thing is probably the depersonalization that comes with anxiety...if you find yourself feeling anxious about these (which I think you are since you posted this question) I would go talk to a therapist right away so they can stop any sort of panic disorder/anxiety before it becomes full blown.

The active ingredient in weed is cannibus. This activate the canabeniod receptor in our brains. The only known adverse effect is that it make chronic users unmotivated couch potatoes who tend to be ambivalent to anything that the rest of society would call responsibility.
As to your outer body experience, what you COULD and I say COULD, be having is a seizure. This explains the mental lapse and outer body experience. Now stop reading this stuff and figure out which order the you get the outer body experience and the mental lapse ................................................................................................
So if this is a seizure and you get the outer body experience first it is called an aura. And the mental lapse will be the duration of the seizure. So go see you doctor.

It will pass. Do you feel guilty for getting high? Sometimes you can convince yourself that something is wrong just by feeling really guilty. Whatever the reason, I'm sure it will go away. Take some time for yourself and relax a little. Good luck ;)

stress and depression can cause mental block and forgetfulness. Perhaps you are still holding some pain from your loss.
