Lucid Dreaming due to cannabis withdrawal

Hello, I quit cannabis 6 and a half weeks ago, completely cold turkey after 20 years of daily heavy use. I have had zero symptoms aside from my sleep. I have been having increasingly intense vivid and lucid dreams, not every night but every couple of times I fall asleep. It's not just the horrible weird dreams that are tripping and stressing me out, although I now wonder whether I should have bothered quitting if this is the horrible experience I'm having to live through without it. It's the lack of sleep, constant exhaustion, and constant headaches I am suffering because of my disturbed and off the clock sleep schedule. I usually go to bed around 11pm/12am, and have a youtube video playing until I fall asleep around 1am or 2am, I generally do not feel tired enough before that time. I then wake up between 8am/10am every day, but by 5pm in the evening, I am exhausted to the point I cannot keep my eyes open and have to have a one to two hour 'nap'. For example, last night, I went to bed around 11.30pm, didn't fall asleep until around 1am, and then woke at 4.30am because of a very lucid frightening somewhat weird dream and couldn't get back to sleep until around 5.30am. I've spent all day knackered, and laid in my bed for the most part, not sleeping, but resting, and then I did eventually fall asleep at 6.30pm and slept until just now which was 10.30pm, and yet I am still absolutely exhausted. I have a massive headache which hasn't left me in days and I'm just wondering if this is all connected to these horrible lucid dreams? It is actually quite shocking to me that people CHOOSE to have these weird abnormal dreams, is it never something I would have wished for myself let alone anyone else, it's one of the most terrifying experiences I've ever had.

Future jigsaws

Just finished Saw X and I'm now starting to think Carlos will be the one to take over Johns legacy. He didn't seem overly phased by seeing so much death and destruction around him, and John saved him because he was never meant to be a part of the games and gave him a stash full of cash so I think that alone is reason for him to come back in future films as the new Jigsaw killer. Surely seeing something that sadistic and dramatic as a young boy will warp anyones mind and he may come back to avenge Kramer after he finds out about his death. I know Cecilia was supposedly making a return but if they've planned on making her the new Jigsaw it'll just ruin the whole premise of the films in my opinion. She's not likeable as a character and I genuinely hope the bitch burnt or starved to death at some point, I don't mind if they bring her back just to show her demise but some revenge story or her being the protagonist doesn't make any sense to me.

John Kramer Saw X

Just rewatched the entire franchise, now on Saw X. It's the first time in all the movies that I can actually see how John sees, feel how he feels. I feel incredibly sorry for him seeing that hope in his eyes just fade away as he realises he has been duped and I think he is incredibly justified in getting his own back on the lot of them. I absolutely love these movies and think it's one of the best made film legacies of all time! Well done to the writers, it truly is a masterpiece! Although Spiral shpuldn't have even been made in my opinion, unless it's to do with Kramer, I ain't interested! Hope they make another one somehow one day! Don't think there will ever be another horror franchise that will top this one 👌
