I had a very vivid dream that my friend came and talk to me at 5 in yhr morning, I tell her about it and she was like
"what the fuck? I never went to your house and i was never there at 5 am and besides how would I get in?" and o we did tarot cards btw. and got drunk but none of that happened
that would make sense.Quote:

which means u may lose a bit of the state called deep sleep
when i smoke before bed im always sooo tired the next day i hate it..
if u dont smoke, u remember ur dream. if u do , you probably still have them, but just dont remember it. with me anyway..
Everybody is just copying what i put about the dreams u bastards
nu...i dream almost everynight and i smoke almost everyday.
I read a sleep study a while back that said that THC inhibits REM sleep (you know, when you dream), so if you smoke before bed, like most of us, you don't hit REM sleep until much later in your sleep cycle. So instead of dreaming at the peak of your sleep cycle, you start dreaming after the THC has left your brain, and for some people this is after they have woken up, hence no dreams. Stopping smoking resets your sleep cycle and lets you dream at your normal time. The reason they seem so vivid is either because it's been so long since you reached good REM sleep, or your brain is making up for lost time, but there ya go.

"THCâ??s effect on SWS and REM sleep stages
Several studies have examined the effect of THC on SWS and REM sleep stages. In one of the earliest studies, rats injected with THC experienced induced bursts of polyspikes (on electrocortigram) just prior to stage 1 sleep. The polyspikes appeared again, overriding totally or partially the REM sleep stages (Masur & Khazan, 1970). Fujimori & Himwich (1973) found that THC caused a decrease in the number of REM sleep episodes in rabbits. By the third day of abstinence, the REM sleep cycle of the rabbits had returned to normal. Moreton & Davis (1973) measured the effect of THC on sleep cycles for both rats that were previously deprived of REM sleep and rats not REM-deprived, finding decreased SWS and REM sleep and increased wakefulness in rats injected with THC. Deniker, Ginestat, Etevenon, & Peron-Magnon (1975) found results verifying earlier research, with the added contribution of demonstrating that THC, when isolated from cannabis, has the same effect on sleep cycles as cannabis itself. The adverse impact of THC on SWS and REM sleep was noted in cats by Fairchild, Jenden, Mickey, & Yale (1979) and again in rats by Buonamici, Young, & Khazan (1982). Freemon (1982) conducted a study using two 23 and 25-year-old brothers, who slept in a laboratory for 27 nights and, following a 4 night break, 4 additional nights. THC administration and placebo administration was provided for both brothers alternately. The subjects experienced a decrease in SWS and REM sleep, and REM sleep had returned to normal about one week after abstinence from THC. However, it should be noted that the sample size for that study was very small. While examining the suspected anticonvulsant properties of 3 different cannabinoids on rats, Colasanti, Lindamood, & Craig (1982) found that both THC and delta-8-tetrahydracannibinol reduced REM sleep."
cool nice info thx
