Regularly smoking friends recently claimed to rarely have intense dreams after weed consumption, can you confirm?

Edit: Thanks for your replies everyone. I hadn't been aware of the impact of THC on sleep, and will take it into account from now on when trying to make responsible consumption choices, as I believe quality of sleep and quality of waking life to be strongly correlated.

Nope, weed does kill those dreams. The upside is, after 3-4 days of a t-break, holy crap are the dreams intense.

Truth. I smoked every day for many moons, and then had to quit for job related reasons. The dreams were crazy, I went from never having them to having many extremely vivid dreams one after another.

yeah I quit 2 years ago (after 20+ years of smoking) and still have several vivid memorable dreams every night. Even during a short nap. It's a weird side effect.
