Dude, I know exactly what you're talking about. I appligize for the lengthy post but I have alot to say about this matter because it happens every single time I take a nap, I have even seen that exact green visual with the floral pattern swirling that the other person described! I have been smoking weed daily, drinking and experimenting with a wide array of other drugs for years but around October of 2013 my friends and I bought what we were told by the asshole who sold it to us was salvia but unbeknownst to us it was a strong ass brand of synthetic cannabis (k2) and we smoked it in the middle of a heavy thunderstorm and pouring rain in the forest (yes, imagine how terrifying it was) and I had my first experience with a terrifyingly bad trip, I looked in the mirror and looked like death and had a song from my childhood screaming incessantly throughout my head but for some reason after the fact my friends and I decided to do it again and again totaling about 9 times. Long story short, me and a number of my friends got hppd, derealization and depersonalization. One of my friends even had to leave school an go see a doctor because he had a freak psychotic episode in my English class and didn't know what the fuck was happening. After I got hppd though I still smoked marijuana daily as I believe it honestly helps it a ton but even on weeks where I don't smoke anything and more than a year after the fact every time I take a nap (rarely before a full nights sleep) I have insanely trippy dreams where i am partially concious and I experience full on hallucinations of demons or I am laying on the floor paralyzed tripping and vomiting in my sleep as the result of an overdose or some shit like that (in the dream) or I am 100% convinced that I am awake and just took some psychedelic. It can be cool sometimes because I am almost always partially concious and like flying or just seeing some pleasing visual patterns but alot of the time it is disturbing images or scenes and I cannot wake up unless I physically pinch myself. Sometimes I will also flashback in my dreams to the setting of those places I smoked the k2 like this one park near my house and just see the playground violently vibrating and melting. Another thing I should mention is I am currently and have been taking since march a tricyclic antidepressant (amitryptyline 50 mg) to help manage anxiety from IBS ( irritable bowel syndrome is the main reason I smoke so much weed, if you have it you know how much your appetite decreases and the cramps and pain is awful) and the reason I mention taking this Is because I have read that this medicine alone will give people crazy dreams. I really don't know why hppd will give these dreams like this but it seems to be rather common but I just wanted to share my experience so you guys know that you're not the only one.
