For a few seconds, I'd start dreaming of scary stuff-weird-but I was lucid enough to be able to stop them in just a few seconds so they didn't turn into full-blown nightmares. This happened over and over for what seemed like 2 hours. I woke up this morning with that hungover feeling I thought I'd gotten rid of, and slept 6 hrs, less sleep than I think I need with my current state of mental health.

> I'm really worried about my regimen now because I don't think I can deal with nightmares. I've had enough real-life nightmares in the past that I don't want to go there in all the ugliness. I really make it a point in my life to be around beauty as much as possible - nature, art, positive ideas and affirmations, healthy people.

> Since I was able to stop them from manifesting last night, maybe my awareness/lucidity while I dream would be able to stop them permanently? I don't know since I've never dealt with nightmares before. But when I am lucid of my dreams, I don't get a very restful sleep at all. I'll have to see how the next couple of nights go. This is, at the least, very dissapointing.Could we get an update on the effects you experienced? I'm considering taking Buspirone if Wellbutrin doesn't work well enough for me.
