Year sober!

When do the dreams of using let up?

Idk about anyone else but the temptation to drink for me hasn't completely gone away, it's just very rare and when it does happen I have the tools I need to avoid the first drink

I've heard people that have been sober for 10 years still having these dreams.

Oh my gosh I hate them so much

Me too. I keep having them as well and they freak me out every time.

2 years sober. I'd say never and I echo what David said.

Would u be up to talking about them? I am trying to find maybe more understanding maybe we can figure why we still have them

Is it because deep down we all would LOVE to use again ?
Even tho on the surface we don’t want to

Mine are more like nightmares. I'm always scared because I'm on probation and get tested frequently. I wish they would stop completely

I have not had any. Maybe one. Been 17 months. That would definitely be a nightmare. Just thinking of my pathetic previous life gives me the chills.

I've been sober almost 7yrs, I still have alcohol dreams. They never go away. I choose to embrace them as another way to reaffirm my sobriety!

Thank u I hope they let up soon it can be just not a great sleep when they occur

Ur lucky

I don't think they ever go away. Kinda like when people say it never gets easier. But we learn how to deal with it better.
