Klonopin and wild dreams

[escaflowne8652]

A few weeks back i got 7, 1mg tabs of klonopins i guess there ok, the most i ever felt like taking was 2 but usually just one to get a buzz, i seriously didn't like what it did to my dreams, every single time i did it my dreams would get more and more freaky the longer i sleep, and the harder it is to wake up from a nightmare, so i went to sleep for 2 hours once, and got woken up and went back to sleep for 30 min. and i had this dream that seemed to last for DAYS, when really it was 30min. it felt like i had lost everything i was completely convinced that i was stuck in this place, i even tried to shake my body out of sleep for a minute and that seriously made me feel like that i was stuck there, it felt so legit because it felt like god put me in this empty hell, but i woke up within 30 minutes like i said, and i was really relieved and very impressed on how REAL it felt and when i got back it felt like i really did go through that and it felt like a weird shift to go back to reality, it tapped into my biggest fear,: being alone, as soon as i got up i thought to myself i am so throwing the rest of the pills away, because i seriously didn't have ANY desire to keep them, though there was only one left, i just chunked it outside. Anyone else get wild dreams from Klonopin, xanax or valiums?

sounds like you achieved the first stage of lucid dreaming. if you felt like you awake and you knew it was a dream, you can control it. next time that happens with you, calmly attempt to control your dreams. remember, in the dream world, there is no such thing as consequence and there are no boundaries holding you back.

people do what you did sometimes every night. takes years to master but imho it's a great skill.

i can't do it for shit though :rasta:

I'd love to do it, maybe not as horrific as yours though :( Gluck on fixing it. Isn't there some kind of smoke that helps enable lucid dreams?

nothing really can enable them except for yourself. it sounds so easy but it takes people years just to realize they're in a dream and not wake up because they get excited. some will say that marijuana helps a lot, there are some other drugs too that help it

if you've ever taken an intro psychology course then you know that humans sleep in cycles, the deepest cycle being the REM (rapid eye movement) cycle. aiming your lucid dream towards this cycle produces the best results, to do it sleep for exactly five hours, wake up for exactly one hour concentrating your thoughts on lucid dreaming, then go back to sleep. it's called the Wake-back-to-Bed method.

yes i love lucid dreaming it's been a long time since i lucid dreamed, i love to just get in the dream and just fly or try Telekenesis or one time i was trying to manifest my lost one so i could talk to her and make out and shit which feels real to me like one time i picked up the shed in a lucid dream and threw it it was awesome i felt really powerful but i seem to almost always stay in a lucid dream for a very short time so i try not to exhert myself because exhertion sometimes makes you become more and more conscious but one time i started to feel myself wake up so i closed my eyes in the dream and drifted back to a REM sleep and could continue lucid dreaming, though i would say the klonopin dream felt way more real, ever watched Waking Life? that's a pretty weird movie

they say that when your dreaming you have a similar serotonic activity similar to psychedelics, pretty cool that can explain the diversity of what can happen in a dream like they say you can't feel in a dream, hell when im in a dream i always feel my joints and my feet walking and pain too, like i got bit by a dog and it hurt like crap
