Fear of the unknown. |

I keep seeing threads that say what is good for dreaming, but we never say what specifically is bad for it. We all know what we should take to enhance the dreaming experience. But I've noticed that no matter what, if I take something negative, nothing will ever help. So, I ask you, what do you notice that absolutely wrecks your recall, lucidity, vividness, etc.? |

An irregular sleep-schedule? |
|
Weed, I hear. |
|
Hmmm, Half of the things listed so far actually work as lucid/vivid dream aids for me, so yeah, this thread definitely doesn't apply to everyone |
|
Cheis. Dailo.
It's tough to bring someone back that never really lived.
And Hash, a purified resin of the Marijuana Plant, more often stimulates vivid dreams than surpress them in my experience. I find it hard to tell wether it has a negative or positive effect on dreaming. |

Without wanting to sound weird, masturbation is supposed to affect dreaming adversely. Also, on the alcohol front, I find that a small amount of bourbon seems to improve my dream recall. Not sure why. |

Made you look. Er, now do a reality check or something.
I think letting one out, sex or masturbation, is supposed to keep sex out of your dreams. I know that could have a big impact on dreams overall. |

Watching television? |

AWAKE?
Artificial sweeteners -nutrasweet (aspartame), "neotame", etc |
|

|
I have Ld'ed after taking tylenol pm, smoking weed, caffeine etc |
|
I think it's obvious that while Marijuana may have Lucid aid properties, it has for me at least, been extemely detrimental to my DR. |

WILD: 0 / DILD: 3
Stress and worries keep me away from Lucidity and Dream Recall. |

Benadryl at high doses affects your short term and some long term memory pretty badly. I'm slowly beating my addiction to diphenydramine, but I've gone to bed after being fucked up off of 20 or so and sometimes I can remember my dreams and sometimes I can't. I've also found that the REM-rebound is great. One time the day after benadryl, I had a 30-minute long LD with a pretty high level of lucidity within an hour and a half of falling asleep for the night. |

Not sleeping for at least 8 hours. LaBerge backs this up... |
|
I do pretty well on little sleep. My last Lucid was maybe just over three hours into sleep, And it was a pretty long one. A lot of times I get Lucid in the first hour or two. |
