price

today i am humbled. i am grateful. i want to keep going. i have to.
still having such bizarre dreams and all about USING. I guess it is my mind wrapping itself around trying to be sober. Dreaming about it is better than doing it in real life.

I will make it through today and tonight. thanks to this forum and to my higher power. i know i must reach out. i did yesterday to a friend and was recharged and humbled and painfully honest. that's what I need. a swift kick in the a.. at times.

I continue to have dreams about using alcohol and it has been over 2 years since I had a drink. Those dreams can knock one a little off kilter, me anyway. Sometimes I wake up and feel like I slipped. I also have had dreams about smoking cigarettes for over a year and it always seems so real. The dreams are becoming less frequent as time passes.

Take care.

Good job price!

I too, have been humbled by sobriety and my downfall into it.

Keep up the good work. It does work for us if we work for it.

Using/drinking dreams are fairly common for us all for a while bedbear and price...try not to let them bother you too much

The only dream I've EVER had about drinking is when my (deceased) Dad came to me in my dream. He died when I was 6 and I've only dreamt of him a handful of times, each time having meaning.

In this dream, he showed me a pile of empty wine & liquor bottles and told me that I needed to be more careful, because if I didn't watch myself, those empty bottles would be the end of me. That dream came to me almost 2 years ago. I didn't listen. Until now...

wow, eleanor - that's really cool..... and so great that you're now getting sober!

Keep up the good work, price! It's good for me to remember to be both humble and grateful, instead of getting caught in negative ideas and fears. Thanks for the post - it reminds me that I have to bring new thoughts to mind in order to stay sober!
