THC: THC is a neuro-active drug and in a susceptible person could induce the effects you experienced. Consider it a good sign so that you will not use weed. Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine
