Does anybody have addiction dreams?

When I quit drinking 26 years ago, I had drinking dreams for about five years. Two and a half years ago, I stopped eating meat and stopped smoking. Last night, I had a dream that I was eating a cheeseburger and smoking at the same time. A little repressed, no?

1. Sure do.

With cigarettes and ephedrine pills.

Surely makes it hard sometimes, especially with how easy it would be to fall back into the old rhythm.

I feel ya man, stay strong :hi:

2. One nightmare I had

years ago was that I saw some sugar on a counter and started eating it up. After I was done, someone told me, "That wasn't sugar, that was cocaine!" In my dream I ran outside and was trying to make myself puke, and then I woke up.

Really freaked me out. I've never tried coke and never would in a million years either!

3. Same here.. Coke dreams

and I've never had a single grain up my nose.

I think it's because I've had friends who used it (I saw them do stupid things to get more) and had it offered to me several times. I didn't try it because I knew I would probably like it.

5. "I didn't try it because I knew I would probably like it."

You got that right the fuck on. My mom hasn't touched the stuff since she was a teen, and is now in her 40's- told me if it ever got legalized it would destroy her life.
I've done it a couple times. Seeing it in movies, talking about it, hearing about it, just hearing "coke" even when the topic is soda- I get sweaty palms and shiver a bit.
It's really fun, until you have none. Especially for people like me who have close to no social skills- coke fixes that right up.

4. yes, and they are the most vivid .

and I STILL dream I "partake" even though I havent touched this evil substance in years (my daliance with it was brief but long enough). To this day if i even see this stuff used in a movie my palms get sweaty. the crackling noise does it to me every time. :(

6. I still dream about smoking, even though I quit three years ago.
