I think I had that same reaction to the patch. That was a very long time ago. Haven't thought about that in years.
If you want to have vivid dreams that you remember after you wake up, I'd recommend keeping a dream journal. If you start writing down your dreams as soon as you wake up, in a very short time you'll develop very good dream recall. When I tried this I even had some lucid dreams. It is very cool to be flying in your dreams and to be able to controll it.
I don't do that anymore. I stopped trying to remember my dreams after about a month. I found that I spent too much time during the day thinking about my dreams. It was too distracting.

Lucid dreaming, becoming aware you are in a dream is the first step to astral projection, then it get's really exciting

I've done both lucid dreaming & astral projection.
Astral projection is ntense. Years ago there was a period of about three months when I actively flew over my neighborhood. I felt myself rising and floating in whatever direction I chose. Awesome. It wasn't something I was trying to achieve, it just happened. I've since done a little research about it. I haven't tried to duplicate the experience, but reading about it here has reawakened my interest.
Hippy Dickie: Castaneda is a fave. Haven't read him since college. I've been thinking of rereading.

Did you find it was the realisation that you were in a dream that started it?VapoFish said:
Or was it something in your life casuing it.
When i used to be a long haul flight attendant (for quite a few years lol) I used to get to unbelievable levels of tiredness ( I have fallen asleep stood up many times). I found this used to be a great tool to astral project. Never really had an experience since i stopped flying. But then again someone told me after a longhaul flight it could cause a sensation of flying when i slept ....but i used to meet dead relatives and all kinds of things.
The problem i find with my lucid dreaming is, i become aware im in a dream, but then i seem to forget and sink back into dream again.
An interesting book, kind of a how to astral project utilizing dream-state is:VapoFish said:
Astral Projection: A Record of Out-of-the-Body Experiences by Oliver Fox, I believe.
I, too, have experienced either Astral Projection (if it exists) or dream manipulation. It's cool, but I have never been able to do it while stoned. Perhaps I bypass REM to deep slumber.

lol macbill - the library? what's that?
For the latest info on anything I usually consult the Net. I love books and read about one a week, but they are generally outdated before they are even released.
My god, macbill. I'm reading your acquisition list. You certainly have a fine collection. Have been considering a glass vapor genie (or a hand carved walnut).

I actually am more capable of remembering my dreams when I vape before I go too sleep, when compared too when I don't vape.
And I usually become aware that I am dreaming and enter a lucid dreaming state during vape dreams... but that isn't normally until the last part of the dream before I wake up.
I remember getting wicked nightmares when I was on the patch too quit smoking. Extremely Vivid. before that I was not aware that I could have dreams that intense.
I think the worse kind of dream too have is one where you score some herb. And it turns out too be the most awesome weed you have ever encountered. Then you wake up thinking, "hell yeah, I got me some weed..." and it's not there. that is another odd thing, anyone else ever try too get high in their dreams? I can only remember two dreams that this happened.

Yes there definitely could be a correlation. If you were to just quit herb cold turkey you would also get the same effect. The sedatives you get while combusting/eating pot can mess with your deeper sleep cycles just like a benzo would.Mckdenton said:
