My dreams have been all over the place lately. (54 days sober)
The other night I had a dream that I had found long-lost jewelery and upon waking I felt happy and reassured.
Tonight, I had a dream that I was drinking and my son was not being attended to properly. I woke up feeling dreadful, worried and anxious.
Journaling my dreams and seeing if I can correlate them to life events or something that has been bothering me.
Anyone else experiencing using dreams?
I think it’s extremely common. Even when I wasn’t focusing on recovery and sobriety I would have awful dreams of drinking too much and my partners leaving me/losing the pets in a drunken stupor/getting a diagnosis for throat cancer.
Sooo many dreams over this last year, it’s super common and it shakes you. The last one I had I said no even in my dream and I haven’t had one sense! Now I say that I should knock on some wood lol
Yes! I wake up feeling guilty but then I remember it was a dream. I’ve been drinking for years and stopped 4 months ago but the dreams feel so weird.
Thank you for sharing.
I know I’m not alone in this as I’m sure it is common especially in early recovery.
Feels good to get it out and realize that it is just that, a dream.
We need to give our brain a lot of time to recover.
Yes still after 2 years sober! My last dream was that I was at a function with the Queen, Megan Markle and Prince Harry 
The Queen said it was ok to drink so i did! The justifying and romantising is still there in my dreams! Woke up feeling relieved 
Any time in my life when I’ve had a drinking dream, it takes one sip and I can barely stand up. The worst was the dream that a friend had a Grizzly bear caged in the back yard and I took a sip of my beer right when I unlatched the cage and I couldn’t run away. Hmm, I wonder if my subconscious was trying to tell me something.
I’ve had dreams where I got high. In some I got drunk. Very lucid, vivid dreams. They were almost triggering. From what I’ve heard its normal
Have had those dreans u wake up thanking its a dresm i think its to show us how we appreciate being sober more than we believe.
Might be the subcinscience mind
Helping us with our fears of using or succeeding had many im only guessing
Using dream? Hmmm… nope, never. 
Yes! It’s very common. 300 days sober and I still get them frequently, each time I wake up in disappointment.
Thank you so much everyone for your shares.
Glad that these are just dreams and not reality.
Feeling relieved and thankful.
One day at a time.
