Weed shakes or cannabis shakes are involuntary tremors experienced by people who take too much THC from weed or marijuana
What Are Weed Shakes?
Weed shakes, also known as cannabis shakes, are involuntary muscle tremors or twitching that some cannabis users experience after consuming too much THC.
When higher doses of THC are consumed, it can overstimulate certain receptors in the body, leading to symptoms such as cannabis shakes. These shakes can be accompanied by other side effects such as increased heart rate, anxiety, and paranoia.
The severity of weed shakes typically depends on the individual’s tolerance level, the potency of the cannabis consumed, and the method of consumption (i.e., smoking weed, edibles, etc.). While weed shakes can be uncomfortable, they are generally harmless and temporary.
Other factors that may contribute to weed shakes include low blood sugar, nicotine, anxiety, and THC-induced hypothermia, which can cause the body temperature to drop.
