Hello everyone. Last night I went to my friends house and drank a little. Not a lot maybe like three beers. Well anyway I had an ok buzz but i could not get to sleep.(partly because im getting sick, partly because its kinda hard getting to sleep in a foreign home.)
Well once I got to sleep I had about six or seven dreams that I clearly remember. This Is very cool because I usually remember one or two a night. These dreams included TWO lucid dreams. All of my dreams took place at my house except one where I was at school.
One of those lucid dreams Im pretty sure was more of an obe. Because it didnt take place in a dream enviroment, By that I mean there were no other people or dream objects that didnt belong in my room, it was exactly as it should be. I was floating in my room, I knew it was dream at the time and I was pretty much just enjoying the wonderful feeling of flight. Then I saw that my tv was kind of reflecting the objects in my room, like there was another room on the other side, so I flew twards it and passed through it....The feeling was amazing. Passing through a solid object and feeling no resistance whatsoever, yet being completely aware of it around you as you go through it. I woke up shorlty after.

I think there is something to alcohol that makes it easier to disociate from your body. Because the first time I drank I experienced something similar. I was lying in bed and just before I fell asleep, my body was vibrating. I dont mean tinglying, Vibrating. The feeling of vibrating is like a universal experience prior to astral projecting.

Im not sure what the point of this thread was. Just wanted to share how alcohol can aid in astral projection. Not really sure what makes it so much different than weed though.

Opposite for me; alchohol turns my brain off completely, but then I drink a lot more than I should. Herb on the otherhand makes for great dreams...

hey...
Although i can't usually remember my dreams, i agree with toman that alcohol makes my brain kinda numb, very stupid-like when i'm awake...so im not sure it would be much different when i'm asleep. For me, coming down from pot (or other hallucinogens) induces incredible dreams :)

peace

Evil Hippie,

You must be such a super sensitive person. Every time I read about your experiences I think, "Whoa, I wish that would happen to me." But I, for whatever reason, do not respond to substances in that way.

I wonder what about you makes you so open to having all these awesome experiences. I wonder if you're just more aware of your body than (I am) most people are?

Well I read a lot, I meditate a lot, I think a lot, and I believe a lot. I think its just a matter of staying open. If you truely believe somethings possible, then it is, and if you desire an experience, it will happen. I think for me it helped to begin experimenting so young (like 12-13). Because my mind was not yet brainwashed by society. I dont mean experiments with drugs, like meditation and spiritual things.

I agree with you guys. Alcohol numbs the mind and body. Escpecially when overdone. But I think that might be it, the numbing makes it easier to leave. I still dont like alcohol though, I only did it because I had no weed. Weed enhances the mind, alcohol numbs it.

Lately Ive been having trouble emotionally, I come from a family of alcoholics. Addiction really is mental slavery. Its destroying my family and I have to sit back and watch. I dont know what I can do to help, before they can change first they have to see that something needs to be changed. And now Im seeing it in friends too. I cried for the first time in several years last night. I didnt realise how much its been effecting me. I keep supressing anger and depression instead of dealing with it. But I feel much better now.

I really think addiction is the worst thing that could happen to a person psychologically.
