medicine changing my dreams

This may be a long post so get ready to read!

So recently, my therapist prescribed some medicineactual name removed. Quote from guidelines = "If you want to discuss a substance in relation to LD’s it is only allowed if it is safe, legal and freely available. " So let’s keep it general and have NO mention of actual medicines. This topic could be removed if it gets out of hand.. I have been taking it for about 3 or 4 days now and found a difference in my dreams. I used to dream out me being trapped and feel like I’m imprisoned at school, and always lose things, but now yesterday I had a lucid dream were I ditched school, and started doing parkour, something I never do. I think I had felt free and could do whatever I want. I had made my way back at school and this kid started yelling at me, he said that “They know your gone.” I knew exactly what he was talking about, so I dashed back too school hoping that I would make it back and act like I was never gone. I had found a bike and started driving to school. I was driving to the bike rake to park my bike and there was the entire school waiting outside for me, they was silent. I started walking past them. And one of them whispered “Their waiting for you” As soon as I entered the school, I noticed I was in this room. Inside this room was a dresser and a book on top of it, I was sitting on a bed. Then I noticed the principle talking to me, I could not hear what he was saying. I did not understand why I was in this room, then the dream ended.

I also had a really weird dream were I saw my dogs puppys everywere, I was going to pick all of them up but then decided to get help, I was running to the office to call my father but my uncle had came out of the boys restroom and said he would help me, as we went outside. I saw this kid pick one of the puppies up and started punching it repeatedly. This really pissed me off so I went in this furious rage and ended up being lucid. I then started beating the living soul out of this student and I ended up knocking him out, I remember picking up one of the puppys and my uncle picking up the rest. I remember running to the lunch room were the exit is. I saw this man and he said, I have to fur. He was holding all the puppies skin or fur whatever you want to call it, so somehow he had skinned all the puppies and I felt really really sad, So I charged at this man in the most rage I’ve ever had in my life. but as soon as I approached him he pulled out a pistol and put it on my head, I told him “COME ON KILL ME OR I WILL KILL YOU!!!” He had pulled the trigger but I did not die, I know I would not die. Now I had grabbed his arm and threw him against the wall. I must have threw him really hard because he was dead.

So guys, do you think this medication is effecting my dreams?

Yes, medication can affect your dreams. It probably spiked those lucid moments. It mostly has to do with your hormone levels, antidepressants and drugs to treat mental disorders all work around your hormones. The effects of the drugs causes fluctuating hormone levels. The flux can affect your dreams causing them to become a lot more peculiar, and obviously attaining lucidity would be easier.
