Im not much of a Stoner.. i smoke maybe once a month if that.. but i use psychedelics roughly every second weekend.

Recently i had a long session with me and a friend at his place, going through around 7-8 joints. After driving home (I wasnt as stoned at this point, bit tired.. still not the best idea) i crashed out on my bed..

From here i had one of the most intense dreams of my life, i thought it was real.. i wont go into the details of the dream, but it was rather morbid and 'scary'. I thought this was strange.. i NEVER remember my dreams, nor are they ever that intense or terrifying. I just thought maybe it was just the weed altering the thought patterns of my subconsciousness.. so i didnt think much of it.

Then last night, i had another rather morbid and terrifying dream. It wasn't 'as' intense as the one before.. but it seemed to go deeper within my imagination, the first dream i was still relatively within the realms of reality (inside my house, around family and such) but this one i was in some prison, around mutilated bodies, razors and blood. - I should note both dreams had a relation too drugs.

Now im wondering, was this brought upon by the weed, i've read about people having rather intense dreams after quitting weed, but for someone like myself who only smokes maybe once a month if that, and to have these effects as im coming down off the weed and whilst completley off it the next day.. im just wondering if my past psychedelic has allowed the weed to trigger something?

I should note, i NEVER EVER remember my dreams.. there usually erased completely the second i wake up, so this is very strange that i remember them with such great detail and intensity... not only that but the nature of the dreams makes me wonder... I guess ill find out tonight if this pattern continues.. less intense but more imaginative?

Almost as if.. my conscious and subconscious were merged together by the weed and there slowly fading apart over time back to how it was?

Hehe i don't know, but i thought i'd ask.. i find anything to do with the mind incredibly interesting.
 
Being on, coming down from, and/or quitting weed has never caused any changes in my dreaming personally.
 
Did you fall asleep while you were still stoned? I find that when ever I'm stoned I dont have as many dreams compared to when I dont smoke before bed. Maybe you have came down enough to have some inteness dreams, maybe you have also had some bad thoughts about weed, that may be the cause of the dreams.
 
Yeah the first dream i fell asleep while stoned, i believed that to have caused the intense dream.. then the next night i was sober, but still had a rather weird dream.. not as intense but more imaginative. But yeah, you might be right there about the bad thoughts..
 
3rd night of dreaming.. intensity completely gone.. so imaginative i don't really remember anything. I guess weed helps my memory somewhat in regards to subconsciousness, well this was an interesting experience :) Thanks all for your input.
 
The only times I had very intense or weird trippy surreal dreams were on a heavy dose of diphenhydramine (like 3 pills 125 I think) I usually never remember dreams even before I smoked weed but I'd remember some of these ones, weird ass dreams I tell you.
 
For some really odd reason, If I run out of green, the 2nd night I will have VERY lucid dreams. The most lucid dreams I will ever experience.
 
common symptoms. weed stimulates melatonin production in the body... lots of it. melatonin produces memorable dreams taken as a supplement, and a joint of herb will give you plenty more of that shit than the recommended dose in supplement form hehehe

sometimes i do both! i love dreams, they're basically a trip for me, one i can do every night with only positive effects.
 
You more than likely remebered your dreams because of the effect on your pineal gland, smoking that much bud must have put it in overdrive, causing the intensity of your dreams and for you to rember them, excessive dmt must have been outputted while you slept.
 
Ive heard that smoking actually reduces the REM portion of your sleep. I know that since I quit smoking this week (after smoking about 4 times a day every day) and since them my dreams have been really intense every night. They may not be correlated they may not be but theres my anecdotal evidence.

Could you source that?
 
Yeah I never dream when I'm smoking every night.

When I stop, bam...9 hours of complete intense surreal dreams. It's like I literally have 10+ dreams during the night.
 
If im utterly flabbergastedly baked and i lay down at night to go to bed ill lay there and see shit playing out with my eyes closed but i know im not asleep sometimes its like im still up but im dreaming. I guess its cause i do like to meditate and i know if im in a state or not lol. Weed does usually hamper my normal REM dreams though
 
I'm a stoner and I cannot ever remember any of my dreams.. Would be kinda nice to be able to
