Yeah, I took 500mg of zinc tablets before bed and I had multiple dreams in which I had a big-tiddy anime wife and we'd just chill and cuddle and she would say she loved me, but I would have a false wake up, only to roll over and see her next to me and we'd cuddle some more. Happened like 5 times before I finally actually woke up and felt depressed. Not worth it.
500 mg would give you diarrhea and you'd be vomiting, at best
I see what you're doing. You're trying to keep all the zinc dreams to yourself. Just one 12 ounce can of oysters has over 260mg of zinc. There's no warning labels on oysters for a reason, the lethal dosage is much, much higher.
You can't believe everything you hear on reddit
>there's no warning labels on oysters for a reason
only cause they haven't figured out yet that there's actually morons who would daily eat 12 ounces of canned oysters
Don't listen to these Black folk about it being deadly, there are literally no deaths related to zinc poisoning. There once was a time when I took 100mg daily and I felt fine, until one day it made me puke, gave me diarrhoea, mild anemia, and sweating.
Funny enough, that was in december 2020 and I haven't gotten sick since. The closest thing to sickness that I've gotten has been irritated sinuses from the winter. Keep taking zinc, but maybe only take 500mg every week or do 100mg every 2 days.
I haven't tried zinc, but the past few weeks I've had pink noise playing while I sleep. I've had way more intense dreams than I've ever had, probably something to do with waking up less.
Not visually? I understand things and work from first principles. I can’t see the pictures I think about when I do try to picture them but somehow still understand the logic of it all.

so if you read a book you can't imagine what is being described?

Nah not really that’s why I stay away from fiction. I don’t really know what characters look like or the environments they are in, I can still enjoy the way things are described though. Another example is that I can describe to you my parents faces (blue eyes, scar on cheek, etc). But I will never see them in my head even though I see them weekly. I think this condition stems from insecurity while I was a child. I never “trusted” the images I was creating because school was so black/white with right and wrong, so I never really expanded on this imagination stuff.
Call me dumb but still somehow still made it as a software engineer so eh. Am I missing out on a lot?
If anyone of you can fix this in me I’ll give you 20k in bitcoin no joke. I feel like I’m missing out on a major part of life.

Image streaming is the only thing I've heard of that might help but I've also heard some people say that it's bullshit so who knows. Maybe meditation shit could help too? Honestly I have no idea considering that I've never had a problem making shit appear in my head, I've done it all my life and I do it constantly throughout the day without even trying

A good author will give you juuust enough detail to be able to create your own mental image of the character or environments, but never enough to force an image.
Good fiction will draw on your imagination to fill in the blanks, poor fiction tries too hard to not leave any blanks and it takes away from the story.
I'm reading 1984 right now, and we are really just given a few details of the main character; but those details are enough to be able for you to interpret with your minds-eye how he should look.

That’s what I like in fiction too. Totally ruins it for me if they are trying to force you to experience exactly what they have in mind.

I don't think lacking a mind's eye has an affect on intelligence, which baffles me since i cannot comprehend how you think. I think the only thing you are really missing out on is the ability to enjoy art fully, but I wouldn't worry too much about it since most people who have the ability to visualize don't necessarily have good visualization e.g lacking color, detail etc. They can conjure up a picture but its a poor one compared to irl vision.

I am the same way. Funny thing is I can visualize numbers or letters extremely well and I can look at a large number or a text and have an image of it in my head for a long time, it makes it really easy for me to memorize information. To be fair though, numbers and letters are all very simple "shapes", there's no intricate detail like when you're looking at a more complex object or a face even.

You could try lsd, although I’m definitely a 1 and I get visual hallucinations very easily, so ymmv
What you can see it perfectly like 1, and taste and feel and smell it at the same time, but the image is always really small and keeps vanishing i can't seem to focus it. Is this an add thing?
>thing does this random thing >must mean it is responsible for this other thing
Holy shit you people are all actually moronic. Like full blown 60 IQ mouth breathing morons
I started taking my zinc before bed and I think I have noticed a small but somewhat noticeable difference in dream frequency. Is there anything else that works similarly?
>be me >take zinc cause i heard its makes you cum more >go to bed >dream im standing outside an old house >go through the chainlink fence >feel sense of foreboding >push on >walk up to side door >dread sets in. i cant stop >reach out to the knob, somehow i know its unlocked >before i touch it, it turns >door slightly opens >see a man through the gap and the darkness >his torso is a nose >wake up screaming
Does anyone else have insanely vivid dreams. Like you can remember word for word like you're watching a story? Most times I'll wake up, fall back to sleep and my dreams continues where it left off
I take 15mg of zinc 3 times a day with the last one just before bed and I've never had very vivid dreams, they always seem somewhat distant and just blend from one random scene to the next
i had a dream in which a milf was hugging me and she tells me that everything is going to be alright and here all my wishes will come true, and then i procced to creampie her
>Take zinc >Take midday nap between classes >Dream I'm in bed sucking my own dick >"Life may be stressful but damn at least I can suck my own dick." >Feel like my ass is getting fricked >Look at ass. >It's shit coming out. I'm shitting my bed. >Quickly get up, remove sheets with shit and take it to the bathroom >In bathroom, look at shit. >It now looks like a horrific fungus like a spouting potato with tapeworms interwoven in it. >Upset I have to do to the doctor now because I have a fungus or parasite in me >Wake up
I don't think I'm gonna take zinc anymore. I get enough from pic related anyway.
If you take ZMA a lot of brands include 5-HTP which WILL give you crazy dreams.
I've taken ZMA without it for years on and off and never have any more weird dreams than normal.
Start a dream journal though, most people just don't remember their dreams. They're all fricking wacko.
I took zma(zinc magnesium b6) before bed for a while and had wild primal dreams. I’d wake up and still be dreaming i.e. I was seeing what was actually in front of me, but also objects would morph into beings with faces breathing in my room. I’ve never been more scared in my life.
Dreamaxxing is essential for recovery and thereby essential to being IST. I personally consume 25-50mg of zinc before bed and it 100% guarantees a vivid dreaming experience. I often wake up and spend a moment to decipher the symbols my subconscious mind tries to send me. It has helped me greatly to enhance my mental clarity and physical gains.
You know what, why aren't there threads on dreammaxxing? I suppose they aren't IST adjacent enough but even still there are tons of off topic threads that don't get deleted.
i dreamed once they my glasses and i found my ex girlfriend and she still want me but she so prostitute haha is marriage but fly all the way to my country to cheat on husband like she do 5 year past
i like she big nippleer

brb buying zinc tablets rn
>500mg
homie you are going to die, the maximum dose is supposed to be 100mg with 50mg being a high dose.
I see what you're doing. You're trying to keep all the zinc dreams to yourself. Just one 12 ounce can of oysters has over 260mg of zinc. There's no warning labels on oysters for a reason, the lethal dosage is much, much higher.
You can't believe everything you hear on reddit
>can of oysters
wait, people eat dead, cooked oysters?
>there's no warning labels on oysters for a reason
only cause they haven't figured out yet that there's actually morons who would daily eat 12 ounces of canned oysters
assuming its elemental zinc and that its fully absorbed, neither is true
bro 500mg is deadly
500 mg would give you diarrhea and you'd be vomiting, at best
Don't listen to these Black folk about it being deadly, there are literally no deaths related to zinc poisoning. There once was a time when I took 100mg daily and I felt fine, until one day it made me puke, gave me diarrhoea, mild anemia, and sweating.

i dreamed my ex was back and she was still a b***h
Wtf I take zinc and just last night I had 2 different dreams featuring two different exes, weird
Don't know, have always had pretty intense dreams.
There are better ways to trip OP.
I haven't tried zinc, but the past few weeks I've had pink noise playing while I sleep. I've had way more intense dreams than I've ever had, probably something to do with waking up less.
"Zinc dreams" holy shit you incels are so pathetic with your gay placebo shit
youre a 5 arent you
Yeah he's #5. Complete automaton.
Yes cause I'm not a schizo
Hey fellas is it schizophrenic if I have...
>checks notes
The ability to visualize something
Feels good being a one, I unironically can taste the apple in my mouth if I want to.
>can see the apple perfectly, taste it and feel the texture of it as if I was actually eating it
Can't imagine being a 5, sounds like hell
Likewise brother, I can visualise the whole highway leading up into my house, then fly through my house into my room.
I can even visualise and feel the texture of my cat 🙂
I’m a zero. Am I an NPC? I have a software engineering degree.
wat. does that mean you can literally create things in physical reality with your mind
Whoops. I mean I’m a 5. I’ve never had a dream I can picture (but sometimes have dreams I feel emotionally??)
how do you think of things
Not visually? I understand things and work from first principles. I can’t see the pictures I think about when I do try to picture them but somehow still understand the logic of it all.
so if you read a book you can't imagine what is being described?

reality IS his mind
What you can see it perfectly like 1, and taste and feel and smell it at the same time, but the image is always really small and keeps vanishing i can't seem to focus it. Is this an add thing?
I have that too. Or it goes really wonky, like there's an apple OH WAIT WATERFALL NOW.
if yanks don't buy tomatoes, onions, carrots and garlic how do they even cook
>how do they even cook
they don't
I can image smell pretty easily but do people actually exist with photographic memory? I thought that was a hoax/urban myth.
zinc makes you more active (and jizzier)
makes sense to have dreams more often
idk about pink noise
>thing does this random thing
>must mean it is responsible for this other thing
Holy shit you people are all actually moronic. Like full blown 60 IQ mouth breathing morons
>take thing
>thing happens
its a mystery
>take thing
>normal thing happens
>ZOMG ZINC DREAMS
you sound like a miserable homosexual
zinc dreams? wait til you hear about mercury dreams
if you want crazy dreams just get so sick you have a fever
For me. Not really
I started taking my zinc before bed and I think I have noticed a small but somewhat noticeable difference in dream frequency. Is there anything else that works similarly?
My bro takes 1,000mg of L-Carnitine powder from BulkSupplements for weight loss before he goes to bed and has massive dreams every night
>be me
>take zinc cause i heard its makes you cum more
>go to bed
>dream im standing outside an old house

>his torso is a nose
>wake up screaming
dont take zinc anon or you will meet noseman
like this?
he didnt have eyes and he had regular human arms and legs. kinda like this
heres a better image. noseman looks like this but realistic
not noseman
Does anyone else have insanely vivid dreams. Like you can remember word for word like you're watching a story? Most times I'll wake up, fall back to sleep and my dreams continues where it left off

yeah, way too often
The #1 way to dream better is to repair your soul
Repair your soul, and you will have CRAZY vivid and awesome dreams.
How?

>Start a dream journal though
why
Trains your brain to pay attention to dreams, increasing the vividness and lucidity
I took zma(zinc magnesium b6) before bed for a while and had wild primal dreams. I’d wake up and still be dreaming i.e. I was seeing what was actually in front of me, but also objects would morph into beings with faces breathing in my room. I’ve never been more scared in my life.
Morphing into faces on everything, I used to get that from ambien, but ambien stopped working for me :/
taking some zinc and going to bed what should i dream about
I had very vivid dreams, dunno if it was the Zn or the Mg though. They lasted about a week straight but then they became much less frequent.
That kid needs to die
Dreamaxxing is essential for recovery and thereby essential to being IST. I personally consume 25-50mg of zinc before bed and it 100% guarantees a vivid dreaming experience. I often wake up and spend a moment to decipher the symbols my subconscious mind tries to send me. It has helped me greatly to enhance my mental clarity and physical gains.
You know what, why aren't there threads on dreammaxxing? I suppose they aren't IST adjacent enough but even still there are tons of off topic threads that don't get deleted.
You might like /x/ for that sort of thing.
there used to be when IST was cool
i dreamed once they my glasses and i found my ex girlfriend and she still want me but she so prostitute haha is marriage but fly all the way to my country to cheat on husband like she do 5 year past
i like she big nippleer
>Have a dream about a man named "Mr Reddit"

Shit was so sudden i snapped awake
hello mr reddit
take melatonin and magnesium
enjoy cool adventure dreams
melatonin gives me nightmares and sleep paralysis.
Yes, when I was sleeping with my gf apparantly I was giggling hysterically looking away from her. Really freaked her the frick out
I've never had dreams especially because of zinc. Magnesium Threonate on the other hand has me living days of alternate lives sometimes.
How do I stop having night-long nightmares about real life worries? It's impeding my recovery.
>taking zinc for months
>no uptick in coo ass dreams
wtf
Yes, I dream so vividly when I take zinc before bed that I actually wake up feeling exhausted. I try to take zinc after lunch instead.
Where the frick am I?
Is this /x/ or IST because the amount of schizos here makes me think there was a mental asylum break out somewhere.
