hi everybody
does anybody now how alcohol affects lucid dreaming?
I think it hurts your chances of having an LD.
alcohol isnt intresting…what i´ve bin wonderining is what effects psychedelics do when dreaming. i have never tried to sleep when under the influence but the thought is very intresting…anyone has???
Actually, I had some of the most screwed up dreams back when I was drinking beer at work before going to bed. Several people since then have told me that beer and hops sometimes have that effect. Especially the stout they brew at work.
I had this really strange dream where I began the dream lucid. I was floating down a red hill toward the sea. It was night out with a black starry sky but I could see fine. Vending carts float all over the beach at different heights. Like, hot dog carts, fried dough carts… like a carnival.
I land near the sea shore. The sea goes straight up like a wall. Some brightly colored tropical fish school out of the wall of ocean and back in. They pass by me going in and out of the water wall. Slowly a sperm whale makes its way overhead. Its flat like a flounder and I can see into it. Like, its organs and stuff.
I walk up another red hill (the ground is red like mars) covered in carnival wagons and meet this girl. I figure that I wil get her alone and ask her some things to see what my subconscious will come up with. However, this disracts me… I can’t get her away from a crowd. I lose my lucidity and go to the top of the hill where there is a road. There is a pile of squished, dead kittens. I look closer. Its a sculpture of squished kittens that someone has made out of wax.
So drink beer. Darker the better.
Alcohol IS interesting
It depends on my luck.Either my dream recall is totally screwed up, or I get into this very light sleep in which I awake after each dream, and that a whole night long.This way I had more than 5 dreams several times, and I also got some lucid moments with it.
But I agree, I´d also like to know what happens if you get up at nigh, chew some salvia and then go to bed again…
