Thread: Drug use IRL

I had gotten into lucid dreaming a good while ago, and was actually making progress towards having good LDs, but then I discovered weed, and had a very long streak of barely any dream recollection.

Over about the past month though, I've stopped smoking so much and my dream recall has skyrocketed to what it used to be, if not stronger. Honestly I think that having LDs is more rewarding than getting high every day. Even having cool dreams every night is probably more fun.

So do any of you smoke weed and still have good dream recall? What about psychedelics and other drugs?

I have decent dream recall using pot, but only because I'm compensating my memory I've destroyed with pot with training.

When you quit pot, how long did it take you to experience REM rebound? If happens after the suppressing period and provides better dreaming, but I don't know how long it takes.

It would be great if we can limit the amount of threads on this....but it probably won't happen

I smoke pot and my dream recall is not to bad but not to good. Normally if i dont think about my dreams i remembered 1 a night, sometimes none. I had to force myself to think about my dreams before i got out of bed. I am a daily smoker so if that heps any. I have noticed that if i dont smoke for awhile and then start again my dream recall is horrible and dont remember dreams for weeks.

I smoke everyday and often times, all day. My dream recall is very good. I think it effects people different, but I've never had a problem.

I smoke daily, (around a ounce a week)
and i have fairly good recall after the 6 hour mark, with quite a few lucids.

Yes, i think it does diminish recall a bit but its no big deal
