I’ve been a daily smoker for the last 4 years, I had to take some time off for a job and it’s shocked me how my dreams have come back. I’m not planning on quitting but I’m probably going to try to stop daily usage. I’m curious how others feel about where they are with their weed usage and how it impacts them. I genuinely forgot what real powerful dreams were like and I ran a sleep study as a part of my university thesis and got to see firsthand how it impacts my REM sleep.

    Daily use for 5+ years and I never ever lost my dreams.

    I get a lot more recurring dreams though. Unsure if it’s related.

      That’s really interesting, I had a friend that said the same thing. Personally I hadn’t noticed that my dreams disappeared because it had happened slowly and they were just more infrequent. Have you had to take any time off? I’m curious if you would have a similar experience to me.

        Yeah I went to Cuba for a week so no weed. Aside from being slightly more grumpy the only difference was my dreams were more vivid and intense and had darker colours.
