I have been taking Cymbalta to aid in fighting the crippling depression I have been feeling. I to have noticed that in the first two days of taking Cymbalta my dreams became more vivid and I can remember them when I wake up for a little while. I used to think I didn't dream because I forgot them as soon as I opened my eyes. But now it's as if movies are playing my head and in fact documentaries. I am wondering what you are into and what type of thoughts you have or experiences you have had.
My dreams have varied from one being exactly like I was watching an episode of Tales From The Crypt where I was an audience member just watching and trying to figure out why this was a new show to me and I couldn't recall having seen it before. But it was good show and had the "moral to the story" as in the regular TFTC shows. I awoke recalling the ending of the show and how bizarre it was that it ended just as I awoke. The only difference is that instead of the "Crypt Keeper" the host and narrator was some guy with bad, big teeth and a fifties haircut.
The next dream a few nights ago I was on spaceship with people who I seemed to know intimately. We had been on a deployment to uncover information about a space phenomenon having to do with numerous universes and that the universe we were in did in fact have a physical boundary. We were to study the boundary area where other lifeforms in ships and energy vessels were disappearing to see if they were actually being destroyed or transitioning to the next universe unscathed as the data was inconclusive. As we approached the event horizon it appeared as soap suds but very colorful and we were not watching a screen but seeing the images in our minds (very cool dream). Just then I woke up to one of my cats pawing at the bed.
Needless to say I am taking my Cymbalta with exuberance now! I look forward to seeing these dreams develop and now I am thinking about making a log to fill out as I wake up to better detail and understand the dream. I figure it like this:
1. Wake up - grab notebook, very quickly paint a huge picture of the highlights
2. Once I run out of the big picture view of the dream I can try to fill in the minor details.
Perhaps trying this will shed light on your dreams and provide you a means to controlling the dreams as wit "Lucid Dreaming"
Seeing as this a new event in my life (I don't recall dreaming for almost 20 years) I am excited and hoping to gain a modicum of control of these dreams and tailor them to "go deeper" and perhaps control the events as they unfold.
