I had a nightmare that I was drinking a bottle of vodka and that I found a few more in my house ?!? I was thinking about having a drink last night but I did not .. this is not ok that the alcohol is coming to me in my sleep lol … talk about the power of addiction it permeates your dreams ?!?’
Hoping you have a better evening and night. Nightmares can be terrifying- fortunately not reality!!
Thank you you as well !
Its happened to me. But its better then when I would be so wasted I'd sleep walk and eat. One time I came to in the kitchen eating coffee grounds with a soup ladle
Jeez … yup … I think it’s a normal reaction I think the brain in wondering what’s going on?!?
Yes drinking dreams are a normal part of recovery. I have had them as well. I also have woken up twice not feeling well and my immediate thought was "oh my I'm hungover what did I drink" then I realized it was impossible because I havent drank. Kind of funny.
Yeah, I have dreams like this all the time. It’s better than the usual ones where I’m just subject to abject humiliation by women, so there’s that!
I only say that to illustrate everyone is crazy so don’t think it’s weird you’re having these dreams
Drinking dreams are rare for me. But when I do have them wholly @$!$.
I wake up so grateful to be sober. Those dreams are part of sober life. But they are usually very rare.
Oh gosh In early sobriety I had vivid drinking nightmares!! Actually felt like I had a hangover a couple times. They do go away, I haven’t had one for long time.
I have had some horrific using dreams and when I wake up, I am so ANXIOUS!! But that’s a good sign, that means I don’t want to do it!
If you want check out Gillian Tietz's website, podcast called Sober Powered. She's a recovering alcoholic with a wealth of information. She talks about everything alcoholism.
Best of luck
The drunk dreams are perfectly normal. I still get them from time to time. Congrats on not picking up. Don’t forget to pickup the phone and hit a meeting when those urges come up.
Will do .. thank you Charlie !!
It happens. They decrease over time
Had no clue !! Thank you
