Weeks? Months? Years? Any other interesting experiences?
I dont remember my dreams when I use. It’s the main reason I do. I have terrible nightmares and weed helps me not wake up screaming… But when I stop for a time, it all comes back. It’s terrible that I have to choose between being too tired to function and being able to pass a drug test
You could talk to a doctor about prazosin. It’s a blood pressure drug that stops dreams for some unknown reason. I have PTSD nightmares and will take it for a week or so when they crop up again. Just something to consider
I took a BP medicine called Clonidine for PTSD nightmares as well. I wonder what it is about them that help.
My biggest issue was having already naturally low BP, so couldn’t take it at the dose they wanted. Luckily, it still worked. Just had to go in frequently to have my pressure checked.
Hmm. I have low BP and my physician said they didn’t recommend it. Maybe I’ll see if a low dose would work. I can check my BP at home 🤞
I appreciate your suggestion. I have some of the same issues as a few other commenters. I have low blood pressure from an autoimmune issue which contraindicates BP drugs. I’ve tried a lot of things, but I have a sensitive system and the side effects tend to be worse than the dream.
I use THC daily and still have vivid and memorable dreams
You have vivid dreams for a few days. It’s just a matter of your hormones equalizing, so it doesn’t take a really long time.
Similar timeframe to getting over nicotine withdrawal which is a few days to a week, which is basically the time it takes your brain to alter its calibration.
I’m a heavy daily user and have been for two decades, but I regularly have vivid dreams. I’ve also quit a few times, once for three months, but I didn’t really see a lot of difference when it came to dreaming.
I was a heavy user for years and it helped suppress dreams a lot while I was using. At the time I also had an early morning college course. When I would come back from that class and pass back out, I was able to consistently trigger lucid dreams like clockwork, which was awesome.
When I quit smoking, I had insane, cinematic dreams for probably about 3 weeks before my normal REM cycle returned.
