that last night I had another alcohol nightmare. This time, I was at some party, and a guy there drank himself to death. He was just lying there, drooling, eyes open and glazed, lips purple, not moving. And no one was helping him or even reacting to him.
Near the end of the dream, when I was leaving the party, he was still lying there, but was sipping water and saying delirious things.
Very creepy.
Is he supposed to be me? My vitality, my vivacity, being the "death" if alcohol ever entered my body again? And him waking up and sipping water as symbolizing that I came back this last time (day 2), but barely? In terms of my mind and all of my gifts still being intact...?
Also, there was an amazingly vivid double rainbow outside, throughout my dream.
The mind is so powerful.

I had a couple of those nightmares in the first 10 days of sobriety. They are unsettling for sure. . .sometimes terrifying. I tried and let them not cast a bad *vibe* over the rest of my day.
The wonderful thing is, it is only a dream. Not reality. While your subconscious is talking to you, have comfort in knowing that you are CONSCIOUSLY choosing a different reality.
My dreams are infinitely better now. :-)

"A Double Rainbow means you are entering a transformation in your life."
Okay, I'm always a skeptic. But I really like this interpretation. Especially since yesterday I started tentatively asking my HP, and my mom, to guide me in the right direction & show me that they existed. Skepticism says that by praying, I was just asking my subconscious for help and it's telling me to hang in there.
But, still, BAM, after one half-hearted, tentative prayer, I dream of a vivid double rainbow stretching across the sky the very same night.
Just wish I could be dreaming now! Argh. So tired but brain is just too fired up. 4am here.
