It's 6:34am and I can't sleep. I fall asleep for a short while and start having the craziest dreams awaking frightned and confused. I just had a dream that I walked into a liquor store with a beer in my hand. The lady in the front asked me to hold out my hand to see if I was shaking. Then all the sudden cops roll up on arresting me for DUI and open container because I had more beer in the car. I have been having dreams like that throughout the last few nights. It may not sound like it's that big of a deal but it scares the heck out of me. I wake up at times and it takes minutes before I realize that it was only a dream. I know that I can't take Nyquil or Tylenol PM's so what should I do to get some rest? If any of you have any suggestions it would be much appreciated.... Lots of Love, Susan

In memory of miracle

Susan- Hello from Conn ! I am sorry that you are not sleeping well.I have those dreams sometime's too.They are pretty upsetting.I am always so relieved when I realize that it was just a dream.It took awhile for my sleep pattern's to level out but eventually they did.You sound like you are really dedicated to your sobriety and that is great. Bless,Trish

Susan,
I too have had the very same dreams.
I have found that a very hot bath and a prayer before bed does help.
Alot on your mind can make for a sleepless night.
Can you come here and vent it all out before turning in?
Maybe that will help.
God Bless!

Perhaps work out really hard before bed ??

Sleep problems are horrid. I have a recurring dream where I am trying to drive from the backseat. I think it is a loss of control thought my brain is telling me. But it is just horrible isn't it? I guess the good news is it ends eventually, if we stay sober.

Let's GO
