Unfortunately, I am a very heavy cannabis smoker. To stop smoking would cause me great stress, and as of yet I do not see in myself the strength to overcome the endeavour. I love getting stoned; it’s one of my greater pleasures.

However, from investigations, cannabis has adversary components that directly hinder the lucid experience. Even though, in my experience, cannabis heightens all the senses and enhances the imagination the theory that I’ve discovered on these forums is that it alters reality in such a way a lucid experience is impossible under the influence.

Is it possible, or has anyone ever, had a lucid experience under the influence of cannabis, or alcohol? To what extent do these substances affect the lucid experience - from your personal experiences? Finally, how many smoke tobacco, drink tea or coffee here?
