Nicotine helps dream recall?

[Sil3nt]

Lately I started smoking(i know its bad so dont lecture me about it...) before that I had trouble recalling my dreams but now when I started smoking every morning ive been able to recall most of my dreams.

Yes nicotine is known to have positive effects on dreaming. I've not heard much about the effects of smoking on dreams, but the nicotine patch has been known to give people amazing dreams.

I am a smoker and I think that everytime I have a cigarette before going to bed, I have better dreams. But the difference is not that huge.

I am a smoker and I think that everytime I have a cigarette before going to bed, I have better dreams. But the difference is not that huge. Nicotine has a profound effect on dreaming, but it also leads to rapid desensitization, so if you are a regular smoker the effect probably is not as great as if you had used it only once in a while.
