Anxiety Question: If I stopped smoking weed, would it help with me trying to cure my anxiety?
I know this is not on the lucid dreaming topic but I been receiving alot of helpful information and wanted to read opinions on this question from a few professionals like many on here.
If I stopped smoking weed, would it help with me trying to cure my anxiety?
Everytime I smoke weed. I feel like I'm covering up the stress, not actually letting it go.
maybe the supliment GABA will stop the anxiety?
Hello LucidDreams17
About anxiety
Deficiency of GABA in the brain causes panic attacks.
Just before saltcube closed a guy posted a question asking if anyone had tried GABA to induce Lucid Dreams.
Curious, I Googled first GABA, then GABA and dreams.
In my next post, here, I will give you the results. Maybe its not the weed but a deficiency of GABA.
GABA induced hipnagogic experience (!???!)
I posted this on Planar Portals when saltcube went down, LucidDreams17.
Last night I took my 2nd, 3 gram dose (4 capsules) of GABA. First, I lay down till I was almost asleep, then I roused, got up, and took my dose, lay back down for a night of dreams. I did this to maximize the effect because I read online somewhere that it takes only 90 minutes to kick-in. And in 90 minutes I may be heading into my first REM cycle, IF I go straight to sleep after I take my dose.
Some thing extraordinary happened.
I was almost asleep when hipnagogicaly, a man with five-o-clock shadow, (short bristles on his face) walked around from the back of me, looking at my face. It felt as if he was making sure it was me.
Then I couldn't see him.
Then I felt fingers placed on both shoulder blades and he pushed.
The remarkable thing was, that, although it was a dream, (hipnagog) it woke me cos my physical body, shoulder blades were pushed.
But
I was so deeply relaxed that I didn't care. There was no fear. I just noted it and drifted off back to sleep.
On waking this morning I got another hipnagog. There was this ... umm ... brown bipedal animal/alien in a green cloak who walked passed me, turned to look at me but kept walking. He seemed relaxed in a regal way.
As I came to full waking conscious I felt ... well I never had these kind of hipnagog before and though I wasn't afraid when they happened, I was a tiny bit scared as I remembered them.
I am not much of a dreamer, I am much more of an hipnagoger.
It is 10:12pm Friday 5/Aug/11 here and I am about to dose-up and go again. Saltcube is still closed so I'll post here if anything interesting happens.
