Niravam

[Typhuse]

Well last night I had a lucid dream after taking two nirvam.
I'm going to test it out tonight again to confirm results.

This drug is sadly prescribed only. It treats anxiety attacks and such, but one must know the other effects. So I am going to have yet another lucid dream tonight hopefully.

What about Prozac?! :bigteeth: Well be sure to post the results!

Yeh, they say that anti-depressants cause vivid dreams aswell. Never does anything for me. No matter when I take it. I've tried morning, night, twice a day instead of one. Tried snorting it before bed. Never does nethin. Maybe I could try WBTB. hmmmm........

[slothming]

Instead of being dependant on side effects of prescribed drugs why not try B6 ,right? Always have them when im doing WBTB , dont know if they help but whenever i do WBTB i get very vivid dreams and most of the time , i LD. :yumdumdoodledum:

Results (very confusing):
I suppose these do increase vividness.. Last night during my dreams they were not like normal dreams. Very vivid, but no lucid. One weird dream though.. I kept running around my dream constantly thirsty for water. So, I drank many cups of water..
I guess this told me something.. My skin is very very dry and dehydrated.. Today I started getting nice red whelps on my skin from dry skin. >_<

I said these are for anxiety.. I don't abuse them. Plus the true name (not generic or substituted) is Alprozolam.
And well... uhh for your snorting issue(??), good luck on that.

[slothming]

Wow! well something seem to be working there, maybe it does help haha! I'll probaly try them. Have you tried taking them when attempting WBTB?? Maybe set an intention to Ld?

be careful, this drug is probably addictive:

Niravam Mechanism Of Action:
binds to benzodiazepine receptors; enhances GABA effects

from wikipedia:
All benzodiazepines have an addictive potential. Use of benzodiazepines should only commence after medical consultation and prescribed the smallest dosage possible to provide an acceptable level of symptom relief. Dependence varies for the benzodiazepine used, with some reporting Alprazolam dependence in as little as three days.

Wow that sounds sooooo horrible. lol. no personal offence but that statement doesn't really mean anything.

Also he obviously has them by prescription which means he would have consulted a doctor.

I don't abuse my pills either, I rely on them heavily. And the snorting isn't an issue. I just thought that getting it into my brain quicker may work. maybe I'll just remove the binding layer on the outside and eat it tomorrow morning WBTB

Whats so hard to understand?
According to Wikipedia this particular pill can cause addiction, and so it advisable to use it at the minimum necessary to relieve the symptoms.
I'm not against using herbs/supplements for LD inductions, but as there seem to be clinical indications that this pill is addictive ( If you choose to believe the Wikipedia article ), I would not use it for LD inductions.

I won't use them to LD on. I actually need these for attacks at school and such.
I have rage/ euphoric attacks not some shyness attack.
I will attempt to use them ONLY ONCE in a various LD method.
I actually do not have to go to school until 11:45 tomorrow, so I will wake up at 6 am and do a WBTB. Possibly with the pills.
Yeigh or neigh? (Yes or no vote fo those who don't speak Engrish. :P)

Even though there are serious criticism going on, I'd say Yeigh :P ! Just dont abuse it , like pop 10 when you wake up 'cause I dont think you'll ever wake up after you sleep with that :roll:

I will guess that they would work better if taken before sleep, or even a few hours before sleep. And NOT as WBTB. As these are anti-anxiety pills, the vivid dreams you experienced may be caused by the REM-rebound effect.

Heh.
No results.
No lucid dream..
Wait!
I did have one!
I remember just before I woke uo from my mom yelling at me to wake my sister up..
I summoned a viper to go around the street in..
It's confusing but their was some guys and a few girls there.
I don't think I knew who they were.
But it wasn't a full lucid dream.. it was slowly going back and forth.

Wait so you tried it and manage to go lucid?

[Typhuse]

Tried it yes. It worked too. Problem is.. it was with medicine.. It could have been just a normal WBTB.
I remember chanting that I am dreaming before I went back to sleep. I told myself in my dream that I was dreaming and it clicked and I did the whole viper thing.. so wierd.
As I said.. it was only half-lucid. I couldn't control much.
