Drinking dreams?
 
I had a dream last night I was put in all these situations where people were drinking- concerts, bars, a friends house where they drink a lot etc. I didn't actually drink but it was the focus of the dream (or nightmare). Has anyone had these? I'm less than a week in but it was disturbing to say the least. So glad I woke up hangover free...have a lot of good things planned for today to keep me busy.

I think everybody, or nearly everybody had them quitforme :)
They are disturbing but I kinda got used to them - and they didn't last too long for me as I remember :)

Can't remember the last one I had :)

have a good day :)

CRAZY! I had a dream last night where I was drinking and some old guy I met at an AA meeting (in real life) was there yelling at me and telling me to get to a meeting. When I woke up I thought for a second I'd been drinking and was so glad to realize it was all a bad dream.

Drinking dreams, while not universal, are very common, and to be expected. They are not a bad omen or a sign that you will drink again. If I dream about winning the lottery, does that mean that I should quit my job and start packing for the Caribbean? :)

Someone should make a sticky...
