Hi Clark,

Have you started any new medications or over the counter supplements lately that could account for the dreaming? Some drug interactions can cause some pretty weird stuff to happen in your dreams. I had one last night that wasn't nearly as "detailed" or scary as yours. I dreamed King Kong was at the end of my street and my senior citizen poodle rushed off to attack him. I'm hoping to pick up the dream tonight where I left off to find out who won. I've got to quit watching Animal Planet, I think. Athough I did decide the dream was about worrying about his deteriorating health and how we don't think he'll go down without fighting for his last breath.

Anyway, I really popped in to tell you that I vaguely remember those Sandman lyrics you mentioned and I think you are right about it being about amphetamines use.

Hope you dreams get sweeter.....

I'm just now reading this and thought I'd throw my two cents in.

Certain anti-depressants (some SRIs) like Zoloft have the side effect of vivid and bizarre dreams, nightmares, even night terrors. There are other rare and unusual side effects associated with these meds as well but sometimes the benefit out-weighs the risk.

Hope some of your dreams are wonderful.
