> ps. If anyone knows how to reduce dreaming please leave a comment! I don’t mind dreaming, but I envy falling asleep and waking up 7-8 hours in the future ready for the next day.

I had many more / worse dreams when on anti-insomnia drugs, so if you are taking those I would suggest trying to stop. Although, getting off anti-insomnia medication is a terrible, terrible experience for a couple weeks (and get medical advice etc of course).



Antidepressants certainly affect my dreams.

Prozac: Bad,annoying dreams but mildly so. Citalopram: Good dreams, sometimes epic dreams. Venlafaxine: Not sure I dream. Makes it harder to sleep too.
