Bad dream

[dibunam]

I have made a dream recently. I have been vaping for five months now, and have not touched a cigarette since. In my dream, I was unable to find anything to vape and was forced to smoke an analog. Fortunately I woke up before I could light up the cigarette. I was glad to find that this was just a bad dream. I hope that we as vapers will never let this nightmare happen in real live !

I've been vaping now exclusively for nearly 8 months, the longest I've been without a cigarette in 40 years. I never, ever want to go back to that and throw away all the great, smokeless vape time.

Welcome to ECF! Not uncommon for ex-smokers to have dreams about smoking... I had to take Malarone for several months; I had the most vivid dream about arguing with Paul Anka and Billy Crystal and no real clue as to why they would be in any dream I have! The subconscious is a strange thing!

LOL! A few months in I had a smoking dream too. I got so mad at myself I woke up and had to sort out reality.

Dang really ... I haven't had any smoking related dreams. I have been smokeless since April and not missing it one bit

Congrats on quitting. At a time in my life I went back and forth from vaping. You know what made me really quit? The taste of flavor vapor? hmm maybe. My Marlboro Reds was not producing clouds and was no fun. Vaping that big cloud is kind of enjoying and addicting.

After well over a year fully off the stinkies i still regularly have dreams where i'm smoking, actually had one last night.

They almost always go the same way, i realize that i'm smoking, get angry at myself, then start trying to rationalize/justify it, then i wake up or the dream goes an a different, weird tangent.

Although, after about six months of vaping, i started having vaping related dreams occasionally too.

Thanks! You just made me hope for upcoming vaping dreams! I have yet to have one after just five months of vaping.

I used to have bad dreams myself about smoking . But they have gone away

When I first laid the smokes down, back in March I had a "smoking dream" -- in the dream, I was craving a smoke like mad... looked around, and there on my desk, was my iTaste+T3S -- what I was vaping on at the time. I woke up right after, and laughed -- my subconscious was looking out for me, providing me a dream vape when I was craving a dream smoke.

When I quit the 2nd time, in July, I had a few more smoking dreams which weren't so positive; my addicted brain was scrambling, trying to get me to smoke. I refused.

It's funny; I haven't bought any cigarettes since sometime in July, and before that month-long go-round with dual use, hadn't bought any since sometime in February -- today in the mail, Virginia Slims sent me some coupons; I guess they're feeling the pinch since their best customer stopped buying them. I very happily threw them into the trash. They won't get another penny from me, coupons or no coupons.
