this may sound like bullshit, but I have not dreamed in atleast 3-4 years. Is this normal? My old lady wakes up alot and talks to me about her dreams and I wonder why I dont have any.

I kinda wish I could now, seems like it would be entertaining and interesting......the only thing i remember about dreaming was nightmares when i was a young kid living in Chicago

Sorry man I hit the wrong button and started a new thread for this deam shit........Sorry I didn't mean to litter

Hey SP, it could be because when you get high on weed it stops you dreaming its to do with seritonin (*sp) or meletonin (*sp) or sumthing like that when you smoke/eat weed it super charges the levels of one of em and some how then you don't dream i read a paper on it a little while ago i'll see if i can find it for ya

yeah the less herb i toke the more i remember my dreams.

when i don't get high (surgery) i have some tripped out dreams. way too realistic !

Same here zep, when i have a break from the erb i have some fuckin VIVID dreams yet when im smoking .....nothing

SP here's a bit of what i found (not the same report but it mentions relevent stuff) will keep searching for the original report

"a phenomena consistent with an initial melatonin release significant enough to partly deplete the pineal gland's store of melatonin. Cannabis' well-known suppression of REM activity, as well as reported insomnia among middle-aged cannabis users were other indicators that caused us to ask if replacement of melatonin among medical marijuana patients might not produce results that would tend to confirm the marijuana/melatonin hypothesis.

Suppression of REM contributes to short-term memory loss, loss of focus, lethargy--all the classic signs of so-called "chronic" pot use. Would melatonin lead to a dramatic reversal of these undesirable side-effects? What we have found, somewhat counter-intuitively, is that treatment of chronic marijuana users with melatonin curtails these side-effects without interfering with medical benefit. I leave it to the patients who will speak next about that."

here's the link for that ^ report^

ditto, I tried taking melatonin tablets to help my sleeping patterns (supposed to help with jet lag too) but I didn't notice any difference.

I have recently cut right back to a couple of joints a day and I am dreaming and rememembering them much more.

Has a lot to do with sleep.
The older you get the fewer hours you need. unless thats old wives tales.

I dream just fine, perhaps not as vidid as they use to be. But I do have insomnia once and awhile. Depression causes sleep problems too.

I think a Good Inidca is the best Sleep aid. But it might interfer with dreams. I'll have to take better notice from now on.

Had Wild ass dreams on Nicotine Patch! Yeow!!!!!!

Constant, daily, smoking stops me from dreaming, too.
My wife started a job recently where she had to do a late shift twice a week and finish at 10:30 p.m. Because she doesn't drive, I pick her up from work when she works late. I don't like to drive through the city at night, stoned. So, I have two nights a week when I don't smoke.
(see, there *is* a point to this ramble )

After a while I noticed that I usually dreamed on those two nights and not the other five. What seemed like an inconvenience at the time (missing my daily smoke) has turned out to have an advantage

Peace..

I guess I'm totally weird but each night I eat a cannacookie with the equivalent of 1-2 grams/cannabinoids and dream like I'm attending a film festival.
