I've stopped having dreams. There has not been a single one since early march (I don't know the exact date). All my life I've been a vivid dreamer and even had a ton of lucid dreams in my late teens. My dreams became far bleaker since then, but they were never fully absent. I am aware that you can quickly forget your entire dream and mistake that for having none. I also know that you must be able to recall at least a tiny bit of it the moment you wake up. But for several weeks now, as soon as I open my eyes, I realize that there was nothing. Is that it? No more dreams for me? Some ethereal penis-thieving entities stole my ability to sleep? Should I be worried?
>>42141112I dream a lot but I've often heard dreamless sleep is the healthiest sleep
well you know if you are around a bunch of bad apples. imagine you finally start feeling bad yourself and you're like oh so everyone around me is literally unhinged as fuck like you know you meet people and maybe they seen wacky to start, and you're like yea that dude's nuts, then it turns out, oh yeah they are nuts I knew that and just forgot. So, I don't dream anymore, just dealing with too many psychos. They ended up in my dreams, my real life is a real nightmare. So, I don't dream, and when I'm awake I'm in a nightmare. C'est la vie
>>42141112God just makes me have negative dreams then harasses, abuses, terrorizes, threatens etc me for the negative dreams that he forces me to have.
>>42141112If you’re smoking weed or anything adjacent (THC, delta-8), it almost fully suppresses the ability to have dreams. Otherwise, idk nigga.
>>42141138I've heard that phrase exactly one time in harry potter and literally never again. I thought it was about having a clear conscience
>>42141112Get checked out for sleep apnea.
>>42141162Haven't smoked weed since college, which was like 6 years ago. I was allegedly taking some neuroleptics for a short period when I was mistakenly diagnosed with epilepsy as a kid. Maybe it has finally boomeranged on me.
>>42141150So i do dream because my life because too overwhelming for me? Sorry, I don't really get your point
>>42141180I'm super skinny, and people who happen to sleep around me state that I don't snore at all, so I don't believe that is the case. I mean, apnea evolve from snoring, right? It might be one of those carbon monoxide poisoning stories (or nerve gas even)
>>42141112I put a Lilith sigil under my pillow and seems to have unusually many dreams lately, although I started to forget what they were. Like first couple nights were vivid. No nightmare, first one was pleasant. You could try something similar. Putting objects under your pillow seems to be an old folk magic trick. Taking supplements like magnesium and zinc can also help with vivid dreams, although sometimes they seem to be a bit creepy.
>>42141310That's surprisingly helpful advice for this board. Thanks, anon, I'll try that
>My dreams became far bleaker since thenwhen you’re ready, you’ll have them again and very soon after that you’ll remember why it was ok that you didn’t for awhile
>>42141165It's about waking up at the end of the REM cycle rather than somewhere in the middle of it. If you wake up when you're 'supposed' to you shouldn't remember any of your dreams. Try setting the alarm 20 minutes early and see if you can interrupt the cycle, then you'll remember some dreams. And have a shit sleep.
>>42141112My dreams feel like they last a couple of minutes but they actually last 6 hours
>>42141112Srop using mescaline.
>>42141112Pray to Jesus for dreams
>>42141112Try to stay conscious and aware of your surroundings while you are going to sleep. Just stay alert and watch the process of calming your body down. Pay attention to what you notice and don't worry about how long it takes.. just try to stay consciously aware for the entire process. Let the body calm down.. keep the attention brought back to alert over and over as you allow your body to relax.When you become aware that you are losing focus just return to as focused and aware attention as as possible and continue to watch yourself and your environment. On the other side of the equation don't move a muscle once you are aware of yourself again after sleeping.. stay still and go back to looking at your own calm centered self and try to remember what you were doing just before you became aware again.. don't move even an eyelid until you have managed to find the visual imagery of whatever you were doing before returning to begin awake. Once you move your muscles the connection to the visions will be mostly broken if you didn't already look directly at the memory of the events while you were outside of your body during the time you were sleeping.You can learn how to remote view by full out of body visual observation and then go check what you have viewed to verify that you were seeing and not just using imagination. You are not imagining when you open your eyes.. and when you get this method figured out you will see that it's not imagination either. What you will see is that the quality of the details you can perceive are directly linked to your focus and your attention to detail while observing. 'Dream' can be the highest tier of out of body remote viewing. Once you know that you are seeing and not imagining you can explore and discover.You can verify or disprove the mythological beliefs of science and religion and get beyond them both through your own perception.
>>42150628>>42141112Use sleep deprivation if you are simply falling to sleep and remembering nothing. There are things to remember every time you sleep if you develop the ability to fully notice the observation while you are seeing it>>42141443There are many things that you can interact with while you are sleeping.. some of them can influence how much you can retain the memory Use mnemonic techniques to find the full memory of what happened during your sleep. If you are able to remember one scene or glimpse one place you saw keep the image in your mind and try to rewind it to the beginning or to see what happened next. If you have part of the memory you can extract the rest of it from within your memory. Stay calm and don't move your body as you return to being awake and look at the imagery within your mind. Write it down only after you have gathered as much as possible. Once you move your body the memory will fade away like shining a bright light into a dark movie theater and making the screen look like it's just bright white or silver.. the imagery is still there but it's too subtle to see in the bright light of day.It's almost exactly like going from a dark place to a bright lit place or the other way around.. it takes about 30 minutes for your eyes to adjust to a very dim light like when you go to the country to look at the stars. One bright flash and you suddenly can't see into the dark..
