Experience with NAC and things that halt dream recall

My recent ingestion of NAC induced a very vivid experience of what seemed like body coming apart but recall is not great at the moment. Only remember some things like the sensation of feeling light and some heightened sexual energy at play.

I am definitely dreaming a lot more, most importantly sleeping so well which has been tough. I think the main problem what effects dream recall is being very busy and having a busy lifestyle. It requires a lot of discipline and committment. You literaturely have to be focused on dream and everything dream related.

I am very keen on using dreams as psychotherapy. I am thinking of a routine to make it work. At the moment my current thoughts are asking myself what I want to dream about maybe get some feedback from dreams. I have had some amazing dreams during this past month experimenting with supplements, and some are so creative giving me ideas on work related things. In one particular dream I asked for a dream to help me acknowledge that energy which I've witnessed in my Salvia state and other herb induced and non-induced states to make itself present in dreaming state - the result was very creative ideas.

Lucid Dream and Dream Recall Supplements

I am taking a new supplement called NAC (N-ACETYL CYSTEINE). This supplement has many health benefits, including restful sleep. I'm not sure if I have sleep apnea but so far on first use of this supplement I slept pretty well. 

I'm not having any success recalling my dreams but hoping with other supplements this will change. I am looking to supplement with extra vitamin b6 as in current vitamin b complex powder I am taking there is only about 25mg of vitamin b6 which may not be sufficient.

My aim with these supplements is not only to induce vivid dreams but mostly for the health benefits. 

I am researching as much as I am able to on amino acids and other supplements that can help normalize nuerotransmitters. My main issue right now is anxiety levels and other stress related conditions.

Unrecallable Trips

After 3ish am attempted sleeping. I ate pretty late, had beef kebabs - beef are loaded with many B vitamins so I thought maybe it will induce more dreaming as it has done so when I'd eaten lamb chops during one evening.

I relaxed as much as I could and suddenly many things began taking place rapidly, so much that I can't recall most of it right now. I was definitely in another place and was able to change my surroundings at will. It was a really intense experience and I mostly remember wanting to be able to recall it.

There was a moment where it was almost like nothing was around me and I was nowhere, that's the only way I could describe it.

UPDATE: Some parts recalled, there were songs being sung in the hindi language, love songs. I recall feeling it with my entire being and feeling cheerful and in awe with how the songs words were being chuned out from within my own knowledge of language. Almost like the feeling of love being interpreted by words that I know. Can anyone think of words that they don't know and make these words make sense.

Shadow beings behind closed eyelids after taking 5-htp

After taking some 5-htp (200mg) I had Salvia like trip, where I witnessed shadow beings. When I use the term shadow beings I'm not quiet referring to shadow beings witnessed in the room like at the edge of the bed (which I've witnessed before) or coming through the door and the shadow beings that wear hats.

These beings are literally inside my eyelids as if they are a part of it yet at the same time they appear as if outside, separate from my eyelids.

There were pineal gland sensations, a horrible headache often reported with the use of 5-htp. It's interesting that I'm having similar experience as  I had with salvia taking a supplement.

I felt something was exploding in my brain. Just relaxed and dosed off to sleep with all the movements. Their movements were inducing the sensations. I felt like this vision of seeing shadows is almost like being color blind, I could see them in different dark shades but hardly ever color.

Just recalling an old salvia experience where at first I had witnessed the shadows, then some sensations occurred in the brain and other things. After that suddenly the shadows were in full color.

Tryptophan and inducing levels of melatonin

Last night I knew sleeping was going to be tough, so I've been researching about tryptophan and how to use it.

Tryptophan is found in some poultry such as turkey and chicken, however the amounts are very minimal. To produce immediate effects a supplement may be required.

Tryptophan needs to be converted into 5-htp and then into serotonin. The body needs enough serotonin in order to convert into melatonin at night and other factors are important for melatonin to be produced such as eliminating all light sources.

I realized I had some 5-htp 100mg. I had two capsules with water on empty stomach which is apparently not a good idea.

I slept ok - did wake up several times but this is because of needing to empty bladder. I woke up at one point and took my niacin, vitamin b and l-theanine concoction to further aid sleep. It helped me to relax but again needed to empty bladder - I'm going to experiment by drinking only until 4pm to resolve this issue.

When going back to bed I did have an experience which I will write about in next post.

Experimenting with Nootropics

Nootropics (pronunciation: /noʊ.əˈtrɒpᵻks/ noh-ə-TROP-iks)—also called smart drugs or cognitive enhancers—are drugs, supplements, or other substances that improve cognitive function, particularly executive functions, memory, creativity, or motivation, in healthy individuals.

I am experimenting more with various types of Nootropics and have been doing so for about a year now. These seem important if you want to facilitate deeper states of mind. L-theanine seems excellent to induce Alpha brain waves and so far is working for me just need to be consistent at times.

Information on Nootropics are going to fall under category Divine Nutrition.

Dreaming of killing a person - hidden dream meaning interpretation

I dreamed of being in a house with familiar people around me but none I actually recognize from reality. I have a pen knife tool and suddenly a woman I am related to warns that there's an intruder.

Someone has broken in, I take a look at him and know that he is about to attack this other woman who looks to me for protection. Bringing my pen knife out I retaliate and stab the man several times. I can't recall what happened after this because I woke up - feeling rather stressed from this nightmare.

Doing a search on dream interpretation for this I can interpret the dream meaning and how it relates to me.

Recently ended a difficult relationship, the fact that in my dream this man appeared as an intruder represents how the person actually came back into my life, metaphorically speaking. It could also be a warning of another potential intrusion.

The other woman represents a part of my subconscious mind or an aspect of my consciousness needing protection. The act of killing or murdering someone in a dream is a sign of releasing rage and resentment often against a person who has caused the anger. In my case it seems it was an act of self defense.

I've restarted the iodine and this could be what caused me to have this dream or heightened awareness of dreaming. I also dreamed of my cousins whom I have never seen for the longest time - they usually represent a type of change.

I'm using dream journaling as much as I can and see how it relates to my life. Although I do not regularly recall dreams I will try my best with the dream journaling.
