I'm just making this up as I go along, but here are a few thoughts.
It seems to me that any kind of drug, or even a drug-like religious or philosophical idea, or even music to some extent, exaggerates your perceptions at some level that's superficial relative to deep, subconscious stuff. If the stimulus seems 'deepening', often that's because its driving the deeper experience into a more powerfully objective, surface expression, not because your whole being is becoming deeper. Afterwards, especially after repeated use, it leaves a sort of deadened afterglow, according to the manner of the high. Hence the purple, especially on the TV, which is a sensate image of a fuller experience. I haven't smoked marijuana, but people who smoke a lot of it (way more than you) tell me that they don't feel as much any more, in contrast to their clean periods. But when they try to quit, and the sensitivity first comes back, everything is distorted by the way their body adjusted to the drug. Hence the feeling of being pursued by assassins, which would be like judgments or difficult emotions, among other things.
I'm pretty much just going off of what you've said and taking your word for it. A lot of people express their feelings in these kinds of images, in dreams or in music. I can't say anything specifically about the Melatonin, since I don't know anything about it. Generally speaking, my experience is that the people who prescribe medications are usually ignorant of their longer term and more subtle effects. A drug company will do some studies, then almost as a rule only publish the results from the studies that produced results they like. Relatively objective things like 'may result in vivid dreams' may show up in those studies, but if it changes the way you subconsciously feel about things, for instance, they're not going to know or care about that. So maybe the dream could in part about the Melatonin. I realize insomnia sucks, so I'm not suggesting not taking it, and I'm not suggesting not smoking weed in moderation. But your dream seems to me to be a fairly straightfoward description of a drug habit, real or potential. Since you use two, and may in the future use others, it doesn't seem strange to me for that to happen. As someone who listens to a lot of strong music, stuff like Tool or Black Sabbath, there's a drug-like effect there too. So I think the Trixam name is likely fitting also, even though I don't know anything specific about that either.
I hope that helps a little.
