Thread: Nicotine & Sleep

My very first dream was lucid (I know b/c I woke up immediately after it). It wasn't too long though, probably lasted 10 to 15 minutes. I also ended up having and recalling four non-lucid dreams (rather strange I should note). I have to say that nicotine can really be addictive for reasons other than catching a buzz through smoking. But staying true to my post above, I'm going to cease use of Chantix until Sunday, to keep three, solid nicotine-free days. I took 0.5 mgs and am now curious as to how Chantix would affect my dreams at 1 mg (that would be a shame if it would keep me up all night).

I'm guessing that it's the alertness that nicotine causes that was responsible for my immediate recognition that I was dreaming. I just found myself standing on a hill in a field, between two houses; it was also very sunny. I can't explain how clear it was to me that I was dreaming (I never do RCs).

Conclusion: I would recommend Chantix to any LDs who, like me, have trouble becoming lucid (or having DILDs) spontaneously and is looking for that boost to get them started for one night every so often. I wouldn't suggest using it everyday for obvious reasons. I should also note that I used auto-suggestion while listening to music, before falling asleep, and was pretty convinced of what I was telling myself (I will lucid dream!) mainly b/c I had taken Chantix, so auto-suggestion is (always) recommended if you want better results from Chantix.

Wow, I just found out that Chantix doesn't actually contain nicotine at all. Talk about a placebo.

now it wont work anymore

Well, it was good while it lasted...

yeah but wow it really worked so mayby it was not nicotine but something else and not a placebo hmm .. .or it was a placebo who knows *brain explodes*
