Most likely: Synthetic marijuana products like spice & k2 have been found to contain a synthetic cannabinoid agonist called jwh-018. These products appear to be much more toxic/hazardous than genuine marijuana & i recommend they be avoided. Not much is known about jwh-018 but it should be mostly out of your system within a week or 2 of last using it. Any lasting effects may be primarily due to ptsd-see comment.

Dizziness & Anxiety: Celexa (citalopram) alone will not likely resolve this, but ongoing psychotherapy might help a lot. Please consider seeing a therapist who's well-versed in emdr, to specifically work with your dizziness and other experiences that frighten you. For info on emdr therapy, see: http://www.Emdr.Com/general-information/what-is-emdr.Html also, please stay away from street drugs -- they'll only destabilize you.
