te while on the nod, are people i dont know are in my last conscious location, and I will have conversations with them, know their real names. Ive talked to the imaginaries for about 20 mombefore Doew this happen top anyone else?
Your memory is good for an avid opiate lover! You have not only inspired me but solved a problem for me; I can create my own friends to get high with- no bitching, no sharing and no disagreeing. Hmmm.... I have a lot to think and nod about.
I don't know man. I have never heard of that before. I have never even nodded though. Seems interesting.
i've been in the "nod" state many times, but that has never happened to me. but i've also never done heroin. so maybe it has something to do with that particular drug? i dunno
That happens to me all the time and I don't have to be nodding from dope, either. I sleep shitty, and a lot of times I'm stuck between awake, and I'll have conversations with people that aren't there, some of whom I know and some I don't, but I know them when I'm like that. It's been happening to me since I was way little, maybe 5. My Irish nana said I have "the gift."
I love the "dream state" that a good opiate buzz will put you in while you are nodding out or trying to go to sleep. There is a book by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. called "Slaughter-house Five" and the main character in the novel gets pumped full of morphine and has these crazy dreams, similar to the ones a few of you have described. And Dilly, I can relate to the same type of thing. I became obsessed with lucid dreaming while in high school and became very good at controlling my dreams, especially if I am on a high dose of opiates. When I am in that half-asleep/half-awake state and subconsciously thinking, I have crazy dreams that go wherever I want them to go, it is awesome. I hope this post made sense. -NICU
I also seek to nod quite often, and have never experienced this either, but it is an interesting concept... What do you talk to them about? Do you typically remember these conversations or are they quickly forgotten? Personally, I forget all my dreams before I even wake up because I smoke too much weed, or atleast that's what I think is the cause.
yah i really dont remember writing that lol. I was nodding off hardcore. lol. i was rereading what I wrote, cuz I noticed a post and was like 'I made this? Lets see what it says'. Yea, I dont think it made much sense. Probably did at the time though. ILL BILL your post was spot on.
Man, I've caught myself on fire many times. Rugs have burn marks every where. Nodding always gave my secret away, "Dad's fucked up again!". Funny my dogs (english mastiffs) could tell I was nodding and wait next to my chair to "yonk" my supper when I nodded. Add a couple "mind earasers"(xanaxx) and I'd be a sleep walking mess. Wow,how did or do we all get by?
