Drinking dream

Oh boy, had my first drinking dream last night. May 29th will be a year sober for me which I am very happy about but that dream sure caught me off guard.

In the dream I was drinking whiskey again. I had my first glass and I was aware I was giving up all my sober time but I kept drinking. Just like in the past one turned into glass after glass.

What really threw me was the fact that I experienced the same feelings I had when I would binge on whiskey. At that point I didn't bother mixing it with anything. I just gulped down warm, straight whiskey to get me through the awful withdrawals and stop my shaking hands. Such a revolting taste.

When I woke up I was flooded with relief that I didn't do it but the feelings stayed with me for awhile and my mind was foggy and I had a headache similar to my old withdrawals.

I have read posts from other members very similar to my experience.I am so grateful to have SR to run to as I go through this journey!
