How to use nicotine patches: Depending on body size and smoking habits, most people. Is it better to quit smoking gradually or cold turkey?
Stopping smoking abruptly is a better strategy than cutting down before quit day. So I aimed at the other guys, one by one, and shot them as well. They also took off. This was where the dream ended as I was staying with my girlfriend and I think I had been making noise or something and she rolled over and woke me up. After waking up I was dumbfounded!
I was so excited that I experienced true lucidity in a dream. I recall the dream like it was an event that actually happened It was insane. After reading all of these flying dreams I am excited to give that a try and see what I come up with. Sadly I feel me and my rubberized vixen will not meet again but who knows. If I created her once she's still in the back of my mind somewhere. Finally I want to say I don't recommend it for a non-smoker or someone that isn't already addicted to nicotine as it's a bitch to get off of.

I tried it only once because they are very expensive. I have reduced my smoking quite a bit over the last year, and tried the 14mg nicotine patch for the first time yesterday. I had 5 extremely vivid dreams and became lucid during the first one. The first thing I noticed is that colors were extremely bright and clear, and sounds were very well defined.
I also seemed to have much better dream control throughout these 5 dreams. Additionally, my recall was excellent as I was able to recall the 4 dreams after my WBTB once I got into my office and could record them. Even though the nicotine patch was a great success, I only intend to use them for a week or two to ween myself off the cigarettes I smoke per day now. A year ago, I used to smoke a pack and a half per day.
Maybe, just maybe if I'm having a horrible dry spell I'll consider cutting one in quarters to see if it helps, but will not repeat if it brings back any withdrawal symptoms. I apologize for reviving a previously revived old thread, but I didn't want to create a new duplicate thread.
