Thread: Does marijuana help with lucid dreaming?

I'm 50 / 50 on this subject. I'm more of a social smoker but I truly do enjoy smoking cannabis after a long day of work. I'm a very successful entrepreneur so those of you who try to state cannabis makes people lazy and idiotic really pisses me off, just another stereotype from those unwilling to do any real research on the true effects and not the bullshit you were taught.

Anyways with that being said the night I had my first lucid dream I actually smoked an hour before bed so I'm not sure on how much it really does effect your chance of dream recall and obtaining lucidity. I've also had mixed results where i've smoked before bed and had 0 dream recall...

I honestly believe the mind is a very powerful tool that can steer you in either direction depending on what you strong believe so I suggest you all stay open minded and just simply see what works best for you.

I'm in the same boat as you, pal. I hate the people who hate on pot too, they just can't handle the change in the way you think and it makes them paranoid and unsettled - kind of like a bad trip.

But yeah, I've had interesting stoned dream experiences before and in my opinion stoned dreams are much more exciting and intense but remembering them is more difficult just like trying to remember most other shit when you get high all the time, lol.

It really does affect some people that way, but not everybody.

Only if you let it... it's like anything else. You abuse it then it can cause problems.

It affects me that way when I want it to, and it affects me differently when I don't, just like my sober mood - if I want to be lazy I am, being stoned just makes it a lot easier.

Exactly.
