> different meds, different dreamsCitalopram used to give me "vivid dreams" nearly every night. Really quite entertaining ones. Bizarre landscapes, societies & often with flying involved. Lots of "moving" through walls in buildings. I've kept some citalopram because of this even though it pooped out on me years ago.
I've occasionally popped a couple going to bed but never got the same results. Maybe it's an accumulated thing.
I've never had the venlafaxine on it's own. I have always had it along with mirtazapine. My dreams are often vivid but not anything like they were on citalopram. I sometimes have really bad nightmares now. They all seem ridiculous to talk about the next day to anyone but at the time, I'll wake up & feel AWFUL...and SAD.
I think mirtazapine in general helps me get to sleep & stay asleep. But I have read that the sedating effects are more pronounced at the lower doses (15mg?).
Maybe twice a year I still have such a vivid & "awe inspiring" dream that I wake up really pissed to be back in my real life.
It's all so depressing.
Now I'm on a role: the most beautiful experiences of my life were taking LSD. I remember the first time. It was in a park on a bright sunny day with a good friend. I watched the clouds merge into each other. We rolled around like nuts on the grass for hours. It was the best day of my life. That was over 20 years ago....
When it was wearing off later that night we walked up to McDonalds and ordered some cheeseburgers. I remember opening it up on the table & sliding the pickle around in the sauce with my finger. It was a fantastic sensation. So we both started doing it & were giggling with joy.....!
The manager came over & said "GET OUT..!"
hahahahahahaa..........I wish I had LSD again & not all these crappy anti-depressants, downers & uppers. :( Now I am sad. :(
sweet dreams....
