I quit smoking weed a month ago, and I have just started to remember my dreams and I’m having nightmares of things I did 20 years ago… (it’s just starting to slow down)also I’m waking up feeling like someone punched me in the frontal cortex. My hypothesis is that REM sleep helps decalcify the brain, and when you’re addicted to substances it interrupts this process.

How does sleeping pills affect Rem
@FANOFPORTAL2 Жыл бұрын
Good question
@NykolxStellar Жыл бұрын
Good question. Since always I have at least 5 different dreams every night, every day of my life. These past 3 months, I have been taking some sleeping pills and I barely have 2 dreams per week. Those vivid dreams are gone 😭 so I can say that sleeping pills do affect REM sleep

I slept walk when I was a kid for years, part of your brain is asleep part of it is awake lol. It’s mostly harmless but a little scary for others.

My son has the same reaction to chocolate. Eating Count Chocula cereal or any chocolate before bed gives him nightmares or really weird dreams.

The literal title is “How to get more REM sleep.” Perhaps you’re looking for “What IS REM sleep?”
