Marijuana causes the brain to create some 4000% increase in production of melatonin after 1 hour of smoking. Melatonin is the pre-cursor to DMT which is released in the Pineal gland or third eye.
I smoke regularly through out the day and night. When i sleep i never seem to remember my dreams. any one else seem to have this problem?
what im guessing is that marijuana causes a buttload of melatonin and when going into rem sleep, a HUGE burst of dmt gets released. More so than of someone who does not smoke ganja. When huge amounts of dmt are released and dreams become so lucid, they are too hard to comprehend so you wake up believing you didn't even dream. any ideas?
Very interesting, at first I would've suggested this to be untrue, because I have smoked continuously over the last 15 odd something years and although I have had periods of when I dreamed and periods when I didn't, I always had somewhat of a Hard time trying to recall my dreams, over the last month or So, I have seriously cut back, to every so often, to not smoking for a week or so at a time and my dreams have become more lucid, I'm able to control the activity which takes place within them, and I'm able to remember every single detail..... The only other time I remember being able to do this was as a child & early teen..., My mind has been too cloudy from partying doing my later years that followed up with becoming a Chronic Smoker... I've had an occasional Wet dream Twice, but I didn't remember much about it to recite in detail, but I knew it was good, I had the proof
Just the other night tho', I knew I had an upcoming situation I would be placed in the following day, and I begin to conciously think how I would handle the situation and that night, I played the whole scenario out in my dream and remembered it quite vividly....
So, from my experience, I think that it definitely plays some role in how our dream state is played out and remembered,
I actually didn't realize how much I enjoyed being able to do this... Tonight I'm going to focus on me being invited to the Playboy Mansion....
I find smoking to much through the day inhibits dreams, as well as in conjunction or solely smoking shortly before bed. However I find that smoking 3-4 times in the 14-16 waking hours makes dreams more prevalent, but thats just me.
Peace
Yeah, I believe smoking makes everything a little more prevalent, you always see deeper and deeper context effortlessly where as in cases if you wasn't, you would've never thought of looking into the subject that deeply... I guess it's all about responsible use and finding out how to use it to it's best advantages and decrease the per se' negatives of it..
