300 days today
300 days sober today! Two nights ago... I had a drinking dream. That I drank three beers and I felt really bad when I woke up. Thought that I screwed it all up by doing that. But, after awhile I realized it was a dream. Since then I've been having really good, exciting dreams unrelated to drinking.
Does this mean anything or just something that happens?
Thanks!

I'm 430 days sober and I still have the occasional drinking dream. I use to have them several times a week when I first got sober. They were so disturbing to me. I would wake up terrified, and then become immediately relieved that I had not been drinking. My therapist assured me this is normal, so I don't worry about it so much any more. I think we are just exorcising a bit of the left over demon.

Congrats T. I had some just this last week, I rarely remember my dreams, but these were pretty vivid with drinking\smoking going on. I was so relieved when I woke up and coming up on 200 days on Easter Sunday. Best wishes.

But yes, it happens to me from time to time.
It's even more awesome when you live
your recovery program everyday in ur
everyday affairs and when you have a
dream where alcohol comes into play
you're program is working there too.
Ive had a few dreams where my program
came forth to say no when offered or explain
why alcohol is poison or share my own ESH
to another in that dream.
I wake up smiling with joy just knowing
my recovery program is working even as
I sleep.
It's pretty cool.
