Thread: Stopping with marijuana to experiment...

Haha if you wana go for that then go hard! Dont expect to remember any dreams though I tihnk some people are just lukcy and pot smoking doesnt effect their recall. But for most people including me it skrews my recall over completly!

I smoked daily on and off for about 4 years now. I quit about a month ago, have smoked once since then. I have had 27 LDs since then and my recall went from being totally sporadic to being the best it's been in years. I usually recall 3 dreams per night, on the weekends I've been recalling so many(8+ sometimes) I just don't write some of them down because I don't have 3 hours to spend dream journalling(I do it slowly to recall the details more vividly, also I am a bit add sometimes).

Now part of this is because I've been interested in LDing for 5 years now, but I think other people could have similar results.

I'm not certain of it, but I think the dream recall aspect has to do with the amount you smoke. I think if you just took 3 hits of some danque you would probably be able to process this much weed(might as well say I since it's obviously different for everybody). By the time you;d been asleep 3-5 hours it would wear off enough that you could remember dreams. I;m talking about some heady stuff, real heady weed makes you more aware. When I smoked the other day I got destroyed(drank some beers too) though so I dunno. There's also the trap of falling into the belief that if you smoke you can't remember your dreams so then you don't put in a real effort when you try. Done this many times myself.

My goal with this is to get to the point where I am lucid in all my dreams. I feel confident I;ll be able to do this in about 6 months if I just stick with it with consistent effort. I am also doing it because I can't keep a regular meditation schedule when I smoke daily and want to become more aware of my daily life as well, I feel like awareness is the solution to all problems, except ones that don't have a solution anyway.

Smoking weed is fun but LDs are more on the same level of things as LSD in my opinion, fun and also extremely good for you mentally, teaches you things about yourself.

If you and your children and your childrens children and so on for a long ass time smoke weed all day your whole life this could sort of happen, besides the fact that some of the ill effects are also the regular effects, there just inconvineint sometimes. Like the fact that it slows you down a bit and makes little things really funny, it does this because you aren;t thinking so hard, which is also why you can't remember it so well, the more you think about things the more you can remember them to an extent.

If anyone is smoking weed right now they should listen to this. Especially La Popo.

^^ Lol at the word "danque"... is that french> kidding kidding geez

sorry i'm out there. but gj with your recall 27 in a month is good. I could never put down herb but still got good recall.

and the OP only quit for 8 days.

Actually I got it from the album I posted a link to. It's a west african album.

But clearly any spelling with a q in it is vastly superior to one without it.

Last time I got high was 1999. I remember the day because I had just bought a 99 YZ250 dirt bike. I had the bike in the living room of my ground floor apartment. I had pushed it home from the dealer just down the road, and kept it there a few days until my brother could come by with his pickup and take it out to his place in the country.

Anyway, I had moved the couch to make room for the bike, and I found I nice fat roach under the couch. I smoked it and got real stoned. I remember looking at my new bike and getting all scared of it, thinking I was nuts, and was probably going to kill myself lol. Everything turned out OK though. Had a few good crashes, but luckily nothing life threatening or even anything I needed to go to the doctor for. Pretty sure I broke one or two ribs once though, when I went over the handlebars head first, while in mid air from a jump. That was by far my worst wreck. Got bucked over the handlebars from the suspension rebounding after hitting a badly made jump. That one could have been bad, I was lucky.
