Does Smoking Weed Stop You Dreaming?

[elskeetro]

Haha. theres actually an ad in the back of high times that says

"stopped dreaming? Stop smoking or send me money..."

something close to that. it doesn't say what he's selling...just send him money.

haha.

i haven't had a vivid dream for ages and they are very rare, i smoke 24/7 and been smoking 25yrs my short term memory is very poor i think thats why i don't remember my dreams unless they are very intense,i can remember my last vivid dream, i was getting chased by a ghost, my shouting woke the mrs up who in the morning asked me what i was dreaming about, if she hadn't had asked as soon as i woke up i might not have rememberd it.
can't ever remember dreaming of getting high, that would be one dream i would like to remember:jointsmile:

I had a dream a couple nights ago that I was working in an office and Bob Saget was my manager. We pounded orange flavoured Grey Goose and hit on his secretary. I can't make that shit up.

As several pointed out above, you dream whether you remember your dreams in the morning or not. Personally, I rarely remember my dreams unless my routine or schedule is disrupted. If I take a nap during the day, I usually remember what I was dreaming when I wake. If I have to get up much earlier than usual, I usually remember my dreams. But I don't wake up most mornings with any clear memory of what I dreamed the night before.

I would imagine that your sleep may be slightly disrupted/changed - most likely you would notice things returning to normal if you continued to abstain for longer. Or maybe not. It could make for an interesting experiment.

You might also try smoking as normal, and setting an alarm in the middle of the night to interrupt your sleep. It would be interesting to see if you have a clear memory of what you were dreaming just before your sleep is interrupted as opposed to be woken after a full night's sleep.

speaking of dreaming has anyone of yall "smoked and gotten high" IN your dreams.

Since i massively cut down my smoking, I had a couple of these dreams with a totally clean body... it was just awesome.

was thinking if its possible for a person to actually focus and meditate to have that kind of dream, there really aint no need for smoking anymore, u can smoke n get high purely on your thoughts in the dreams!

like just anytime u wanna smoke, sit down and meditate/yoga for a little while, n bam!

Hah I had a dream where I sat down for breakfast and my mom just put a glass of LSD and a piece of toast in front of me, I remember a feeling of falling into the glass, first time I had a psychedelic dream

Very interesting.... it could be as simple as sleeping more soundly when smoking. I wonder what the effect MJ might have on PTSD related sleep issues?

[AbrandnewL]

Yeah, I think its a matter of that after you smoke you are burnt out, and you are more tired so you are in a deeper, more relaxed state of sleep..So, the burnt out sleeper experiences more REM sleep..

Just my two cents..:jointsmile:

[zeitgeist]

Damn i just had this same convo also. crazy

But yeah like ^ said you are probably more relaxed or something and just dont remember them.
I dont know if I like remembering my dreams anyways. They are pretty freaky and I rarely enjoy them
