      diphenhydramine hydrochloride

      Does anyone know if Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride, aka Benadryl, or sleep aid, interrupt your REM cycles at all?

      All I know is that after I took two (children's chewables that is lol) benadryl's I induced my first FILD. So I don't know what if it does or not. But last night I tried melatonin and it didn't seem to do anything. Didn't improve my recall or antyhing. Well maybe it made me fall asleep faster but that's it.

      I was having allergy problems, so I took one. They can be used as a sleep aid too apparently. Seems like the benadryl might have decreased my dream recall, but not sure. Sometimes my recall just varies. I think I'm gonna give melatonin a shot, and see what happens. So far, it seems I've been having trouble sleeping since trying to lucid. I have been waking up almost after every dream though. Seems as though I'm having a dry spell or something. I haven't had a lucid since I started earlier this month.

      Yes, it promotes deep sleep so you will have less REM. However I've remember vivid dreams with 25mg, so it's possible to lucid dream.

      ive taken about 5 or 6 of those before and i felt like i was dreaming while concious


      but from what I recall, the dreams were more....random, also benadryl makes me hallucinate a little, even a 25mg dose, or a 125mg, either dose makes me feel a bit like im stoned/sleepy or tripping
      I would rather die on my feet then to live on my knees.
