Weird dreams because of alcohol?

Whenever I drink heavily a few nights in a row I sometimes have these weird dreams that are SO vivid and are taking place wherever I'm sleeping. For some reason they always involve fucking spiders or some creepy shit like that. Like this morning I swear I was dreaming that I was lying on my bed and there was a spider right next to me. I woke up fully expecting to see one but there wasn't and it took me a moment to register that it was a dream. Anyone else get shit like this?

You're prolly not drinking enough. If you get really drunk you won't be able to remember your dreams.

Yeah, I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that alcohol has the opposite effect on your consciousness.

That's what I thought but I always remember them, especially after getting really drunk

Yeah it's really freaked me out. No one wants to dream about spiders.. And the weirdest thing is it feels like it's actually happening. If I'm sleeping in my room, the dream will take place in my room and it'll be too vivid to dismiss as a dream right away.

I rarely lucid dream and one time it was after a night of drinking. P.S. Fuck hard drugs, I started avoiding alcohol(successfully) and advise everyone to do so!

i dont have the dream problem. but i do get horrible rebound anxiety no matter how little or much i drink the night before and it fucking sucks.... though i think i've always got it now its getting worse, to the point where i stopped drinking. never really drank much but im gonna miss getting shitty with friends around a fire and doing really dumb shit.
anyone else get rebound anxiety the morning after a night of drinking?

I've never really associated alcohol with anxiety I mean besides the weird dream shit I usually love alcohol even if I'm using it as a crutch

Ya all the time. I find them especially vivid after I wake up and go back to sleep. Basically every hour is a different story line. Mostly when I'm noticeably with drawing.

Yeah that's what it's like for me! When I wake up after a few hours of sleep, I usually wake up agin and again after trying to get back to sleep. I wouldn't say I'm 'withdrawing' unless 3 or 4 days is enough time to build an alcohol tolerance

It depends on how much you drink in those 3 or 4 days. Typically, if you consistently wake up alot after binges...it is withdrawal.Your body is craving it.
Ever heard of whiskey fleas?...Bugs crawling are a very common hallucination among middle to late stage alcoholics. They are horrible...more like datura delirium than hallucinations. I don't know how much or how often you drink...but if you are lucid dreaming with creepy crawlers consistently a day or two after a binge...you may want to think about stopping for awhile and see if that changes things.

Nausea. Noticeable shaking. Alcohol wds suck hard core. If you wake up between the dreams covered in sweat it's wds.

SOMEONE HALP If I wake up after another god damn spider dream I will shoot myself in the god damn face even I don't have a gun. In fact no one in Australia has a gun to shoot themselves with if they wanna go crazy so that's probs a good thing I could still drive my car into a tree though That's how disturbed I am by the spider/insect dreams

I'm actually a big fan of spiders. Then again some girl did say I looked like Hugh Jackman last week
