What is it like when a medically fragile child passes? While you can't prepare for it, the idea frightens me and makes it hard to judge if their life experience was a net positive for them (not that it can take away from the moments they enjoyed of couree). I can't imagine it being easy or not scary for either the child or the parent. I feel that it's important to understand it.

Apologies for the rough question. Thank you for sharing your insight.

Have you ever had at length conversations with the more autonomous parts of your mind? One of the few lucid dreams I had I sat down with a version of myself with a bit of a different complection and he stated he was my subconscious. We chit chatted for a while, and I was able to clarify some things with it, and funnily enough he stated that as our biological clock is a part of himself, he wanted to tell me it was about two minutes before my alarm was to go off and as we don't like the sound I should wake up now, so open my eyes. I sorta blinked in the dream before he sighed and told me to open our real eyes. And lo and behold it was 7:28 am with my 7:30 alarm around the bend.

What confuses me is how can a reflexive part of one's body/mind communicate and have cohesive thought. Why didnt I know what he was going to say until he said it. If it's a part of my mind I should know what comes next, if not will it to be said. And if it's possible to talk to it and for it to be aware of your vitals and rhythms why can't we be aware of what our body and mind is doing in our waking life so easily? Why did need therapy and mediation and doctors to figure out some physical and physcologial issues were when that night I could just get point blank answers.

Now that I think about it, anyone I ask in a dream is aware they are in a dream but don't seem bothered by it. And I am always surprised but appreciative that they are open to talk. They just say it's their reality while it's happening so it's real enough to them. Makes me wonder if we are just characters in someone else's dream and one day they might wake up. Spooky.

A second shorter question. If one used cannabis for medical/rectrsactional reasons, as it deprives rem for the first part of the night, Is there a way to utilize its rebound towards the end in conjuction with another technique such as wbtb?
