First visual "dream" I have is serving at a counter service restaurant topless agony-shivering Also distinctly remember grabbing random platters & just looking for the right table via eye contact.

I think the worst part was openly complaining about this in the dream and having some dipshit at a table laugh & tell me "Welcome to the service industry." smuglord

Why can't I just lucid dream about killing fascists? stalin-bummed

Smoking weed seems to fuck with peoples ability to dream or remember them. Tolerance break usually bring out the strangest dreams for me.

Last night I had a dream about a type of flower that gives birth to monkeys

That sounds simultaneously fascinating & horrifying

It's called a "REM rebound". I think it's fun.

Honestly I can agree when it's something balls to the walls, but I think the mundaneness of this one was particularly off-putting.

When I come down off of meth, the first night of sleep is dominated by dreams that are either a) fucking bizarre and which I wake up from feeling almost “locked in” or something, or b) just normal dreams, like the sort or vivid dreams I should be having as a normal human.

I rarely have dreams, at least ones which I remember having when I wake up, when I’m high—and I have such an insane tolerance that I can smoke and go right to bed.

Holy shit that must be the worst?

yeah this is one of my least favorite parts of quitting weed, I always get anxiety dreams where I'm running late for something and stuff keeps happening that prevents me from leaving the house

Yeah I feel this. My dreams are usually very realistic and very mundane. It fucka me up because I'll dream about planning an event or doing a project at work or something, and then I wake up and feel like I have a bunch of stuff on my todo list, but none of it is actually real. It's not nightmare-bad, but it is goddamn annoying.

When I was a much more regular user, that mostly went away and it was great. Now I only rarely get to have any and it's boring-town dream city, basically every night. Looking forward to recreational sales in this area soon.
