WBTB Supplements: Galantamine with Choline.
Last night I was reading over Thomas Yuschak's book 'Advanced Lucid Dreaming: The Power of Supplements' (again), looking for some experiments to try. I haven't tried anything in the book besides WBTB + Galantamine, which had proven to be powerful. I decided to try the WBTB + Galantamine + WILD approach.
I went to sleep at 12:45 knowing I would be awoken by Danielle at ~5:30 for her work, which would work out well for the WBTB. I woke up randomly at night trying to naturally wake up before her alarms went off but I kept getting up too early, which kept me half conscious in the last hour of my sleep (possibly helping REM rebound later).
After she went to work I took the Galantamine and went back in bed. I laid down on my back for 20 minutes as suggested, I noticed my 'dream hands' feeling like they were floating in my real ones. Then I went to my right side also as suggested. I kept my mind conscious and within 10 minutes my lucid adventures began.
Dream 1
I open my eyes to see the lights are on in the room. This annoys me a little, as it's interrupting my lucid attempts, so I head over to my wall switch by the door to turn off the light. As I'm walking to the door I notice my small shelf beside the door is missing. This immediately makes me lucid, I do a nose pinch test to confirm It's a dream. I'm so excited that I'm finally lucid again, I look into a mirror on the wall at myself and am amazed by the level of detail and clarity.
Leaping for the window before stabilizing the dream and being too excited, I lose the dream.
Dream 2
Suddenly outside I wonder what to do. Again I'm amazed with how real everything is as I look at the grass and the tree's around me, I repeat the nose pinch reality test several times. So I begin taking large leaps over the small grassy hills but again it was too early to be doing so much and I lose the dream.
Dream 3
Now I'm out front of my fathers house, I start walking down the front steps. As I do I notice that if I focus my eyes hard on everything I look at that the dream becomes even more vivid, but it's difficult to maintain. The moment I release my eyes back to normal the dream goes to black. I try rubbing my hands and spinning but it doesn't help.
Dream 4
In my room on the floor, I look beside me to see the real life versions of Aladdin and Jasmine on my bed.. Nude. This time I didn't move at all, trying to make everything more solid. I look around the room just taking it in, but Jasmine's breasts are distracting me. After a while this cause the dream to fade.
Dream 5
Finding myself in a large woodlands-like area, I take it easy and walk around. After walking for a little while I feel like I can finally let loose. Taking a huge leap into the distance I land beside a school. The place is crowded with people as I walk around. I attempt making a friend appear behind something, but it fails.
I take a few more leaps and land near the base of a mountain. Seeing some lion cubs nearby I walk up them and begin playing with them. Then I have the idea to give them some mice to chase, so I throw my hand open to create some but nothing appears. The lions run in the direction I threw my hand as if to chase invisible mice (like a dog would go after a ball you pretend to throw).
So I close my hand and imagine a mouse being in it, crawling around frantically trying to get out. This works immediately as I feel what I'm imagining, I let it go and the lions play with it. Closing my hand again I attempt to create a larger one, this time when I feel the mouse I don't let it go right away. Keeping my hand shut I feel the mouse grow inside until I cant keep my hand shut anymore and have to let it go.
While playing with the cubs I see a large lake further down the base of the mountain. Going to the edge of the lake I look at it closely and notice there's a thin layer of oil on the surface. Then I notice there's a island far off in the middle of the lake, I decide to try to jump to it. Bad idea. Taking a running jump, as soon as I'm in the air I know i'm only going to make it half way. Here's the creepy part, I look down at the lake while my decent begins and notice something MASSIVE underneath the water shft. It was like a giant snake was just finished curling up, and I just saw it as it stopped. Splashing into the water I shut my eyes and say to myself "I cleared the jump and I'm now falling towards land." Opening my eyes I see the ground beneath me and I land to breathe a huge sigh of relief. The dream fades shortly after.
Dream 6
Coming into this dream I decide I want to be in a massive melee battle. Sure enough I'm put in the front lines of a random fight. Unfortunately I can't recall this dream
Dream 7
I'm in my dad's house with some of my siblings. I perform a nose pinch test to confirm I'm dreaming. Wanting to keep my dreams intact I decide now is a good point to wake up to write them down, so I wake up.
I get up and reach for my phone to see the time, but I notice something beside me. There's people in my room staring at me. Freaked out and amazed I didn't wake up for real I try to wake up again.
There were more than 5 false awakenings, and I was starting to get scared that I couldn't wake up and that it may be late in the day. I was also getting pretty tired so I let the last dream continue as a normal dream.
Dream 8
My boss at work is now teamed up with my uncle Jeff. They're both talking about improvements that can be made to the working environment. I see my brother Bill near by and we begin talking. He explains since his cancer was removed he wanted to have more fun in life and that he wanted to start playing WoW again (World of Warcraft). He then runs to his manager asking for $2,000 for WoW.
Suddenly I'm in a mix of WoW and reality. There's a boss in front of a huge gate that nobody had killed before, but someone was taking it on. Bill and I watch as this guy solo's the boss and the gate opens. Four massive figures that appear to be made out of different fabrics come out of the gate. The figures begin talking about the importance of a good diet, but they're mumbling very strangely and their sowed-on faces look hilarious. My perspective keeps getting closer to these figures, the detail is amazing.
Last night was amazing, I had so many dreams and there were more that I couldn't recall. I felt as though most of the day must have gone by when I woke up. The crazy part is it was 7:25AM, I was only asleep for nearly an hour! I was conscious in between dreams thinking about what I could do differently in the next ones. One interesting thing was my nose pinch test in dreams, I only was able to breathe out of my left nostril. When I woke I tried breathing through my nose and this was the case then too.
This was also the first time I successfully completed a WILD, which is huge for me for after failing so many. A major downside is that Galantamine is mainly responsible for this accomplishment, it was cool none the less.
I'm going to have to try this combination again to see how it works. It's good to have a lucid again .
