Affect

Can I say:

After affects of marijuana since it does affect my emotions too. Or

Can it only be after effects of marijuana?

Thanks!

The noun is spelled "effects," except for a specific psychological term, which this is not. Since these are not sentences, I don't know if you intend "after" as an adverb of time, or if "after effects" is a compound noun. This doesn't affect the answer to your question.
