I can feel my left lobe surging with immense electrical activity as stupid and retarded as that sounds

2019-08-23 14:51:50 UTC  

I got way too excited yesterday

2019-08-23 14:51:56 UTC  

usually I fair better with lucid dreams

2019-08-23 14:52:10 UTC  

take it easy and fly away

2019-08-23 14:52:12 UTC  

not yesterday

2019-08-23 14:52:16 UTC  

maybe the heat fucked me

2019-08-23 14:52:49 UTC  

Thing is, I used to dream increadibly vividly, before I started on my current medications in '06. The trade-off was worth it, because it helped me level out, but since then I've been slowly but surely getting my dream powers back.

2019-08-23 14:53:04 UTC  

ehhh

2019-08-23 14:53:14 UTC  

for me regular vivid dreams are more rare

2019-08-23 14:53:27 UTC  

however lucid dreams half of them have overrealistic vividness to them

2019-08-23 14:53:41 UTC  

I can phisically feel the texture of cobblestones and other crap I touch

2019-08-23 14:54:02 UTC  

medication for what

2019-08-23 14:54:06 UTC  

hyperactivity?

2019-08-23 14:54:08 UTC  

No.

2019-08-23 14:54:09 UTC  

Ah, aye... mostly I go for the "earned my sleep" state.. but when I do the dreams I manifest are all the more hyperreal.

2019-08-23 14:54:20 UTC  

Depression.

2019-08-23 14:54:25 UTC  

Understandable

2019-08-23 14:54:29 UTC  

But also I couldn't get a full night's sleep.

2019-08-23 14:54:34 UTC  

I haven't touch midn altering medication yet

2019-08-23 14:54:41 UTC  

I hope I can go without it

2019-08-23 14:54:52 UTC  

just vitamins and minerals

2019-08-23 14:55:07 UTC  

Only things I go for is nicotine (vape in the modern), caffeine and a touch of wine.

2019-08-23 14:55:18 UTC  

sometimes I come home HANGRY but i aint taking no chillpill for that

2019-08-23 14:55:36 UTC  

ill just eat like a horse

2019-08-23 14:55:45 UTC  

oh yeah

2019-08-23 14:55:52 UTC  

Thing is, before getting on those meds, I once had a moment while trying to fall asleep (was attempting to learn meditation at the time), there was an incident where I ***felt*** the dark side calling to me. It was a really fucked-up moment, and ever since, I've never really been able to meditate.

2019-08-23 14:55:57 UTC  

maybe all that coke I drank 5 years straight must have fucked my head

2019-08-23 14:56:15 UTC  

it was then I had a sillence of no dreams for 3 years straight

2019-08-23 14:56:18 UTC  

during that period

2019-08-23 14:56:22 UTC  

caffeine did something

2019-08-23 14:56:26 UTC  

with the tons of sugar

2019-08-23 14:57:26 UTC  

The only drug I really take (aside from meds) is caffeine. Last year I chose to severely cut back on my caffeine intake, reducing the 4-6 cans of soda a day to one. Doesn't seem to have affected my dreaming at all.

2019-08-23 14:58:34 UTC  

I was drinking 2.5 liters/daily of coke

2019-08-23 14:58:39 UTC  

almost ended up with type 2 diabetes

2019-08-23 14:58:45 UTC  

I ran into that when I was in puberty involving some rather *perverse* aspects that caused me to forcibly recoil from my shadow.

2019-08-23 14:58:49 UTC  

replaced water basically

2019-08-23 14:59:05 UTC  

I did get over it, using guided meditations.

2019-08-23 14:59:22 UTC  

I scared myself with that one.

2019-08-23 14:59:25 UTC  

after I was close to type 2 dyabetes I went of Hardcore keto and lost 30 kg in 70 days

2019-08-23 15:00:06 UTC  

I still drink soda every once ina full moon

2019-08-23 15:00:14 UTC  

but not to replace water with it like in the past
