Firstly just like to say a big hello to everyone here at dreamviews!

My names Ben, I'm 22 and i've always been interested in lucid dreaming but very recently i kinda just thought, you know what!? I'm doing this!

My only problem at the moment is for the past few years my dream recall has been very low, it has improved significantly through a little work and i am pleased with my progress.

My main question is really more of the effects of cannabis and dreaming, it seems to be a bit of a controversial subject getting many, mixed responses. I was just wandering, I've been a smoker, usually about 1 or 2 a day for the past year and a half. Will this affect my dreams and if so, is it going to mean I have to work harder, or is giving up the pot really the way forward?
I've done my research and heard REM Rebound been mentioned and maybe this is my ticket to remembering my dreams much better and moving on to lucidity.

Are there any smokers, or even non-smokers here that would be willing to give me some advice? I mean I love my green but if I have to give it up for a while, whilst I pursue my quest to lucid dream that's completely fine with me!

Thanks a lot for reading, looking forward to hearing back!
