I was "Dream Smoking" last night

[BigCatDaddy]

No joke!! I had a dream last night that I was in a cafe in some podunk town, seemed like it was back in the '60's by the way the waitress was dressed, complete with a jacked-up hydraulic hairdo. I was sitting there and the couple at the next table asked if it was OK to smoke in there. The waitress said "sure, see, he's smoking" and gestured in my direction. I looked down and had a smoke in my hand, mostly gone. I freaked. I thought "Dammit, 5 months of no smokes, down the drain!!" I stubbed it out and headed out the door and was walking down the street, still mad that I had that smoke. And then...........I fired up another one!! Where did I get these from?? I don't smoke, I vape now. Why do I have these?? I frantically checked my pockets for my vape. Nothing. Dammit, they haven't been invented yet. And then I woke up, sweating and anxious. I got up, headed for my office and was relieved to see my vapes, all lined up and ready........and those phantom smokes nowhere to be seen. I hate freakin' nightmares. Danged cigarettes are even trying to lure me back in my sleep.

I had a smoke dream once... I was at my house, I lit one up. I remember briefly thinking about a year of vaping down the drain, but it didn't seem to bother me. They do say that dreams are of no significance to modern psychology, so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I haven't had a drink in over 27 years and I still have drinking and drugging dreams occasionally (about once every six months or so). And in the dreams I'm actually feeling the effects of the drink or drug. We have random drug testing at work, so that usually goes through my head also when I'm thinking it was real! I'm always relieved when I wake and realize it was just a dream. Sometimes it takes a minute or two to convince myself that it was a dream and not something I actually did and forgot about. But when it's over I'm always grateful that I don't do that any more.

Yep here too. When I quit drinking I had those dreams and other people said they did too. Must be common with all types of behavior.

My wife said I smoked the other night when I let the dogs out. She said I smelled when I came back to bed. LOL no I didn't.

Not smoking no, but the thread's close enough for me to share a real strange recent one.

So a few weeks ago I had a dream that I was an expert bagpipe player; I played in a band of pipers, and we would travel the south of England going to village fetes during the summer. When I woke up I actually went to a cupboard I have in the house's hallway to find my pipes - I swear it's true. I have to assume it's due to the shape of the EVOD bcc driptip.

I had a dream not too long ago where I was in a convenience store buying a pack of cigarettes and it was a soft pack that was kind of beat up and I said "it's ok I'll probably end up taking one puff and throwing them out anyways" lol. I have NO idea where that came from. It was weird.

Not sure if I'm jealous!....dream smoking is healthy smoking I've been really fancying a cig these last two days, not really craving, but you know, just one :-/

I know if I had one, I couldn't stop myself a second or third. I've had a good chat with myself, hope I will listen for a change.

I was however dream running last night, I used to be very athletic. ..a long time ago, I couldn't even get to the end of our street now and we are only 4 doors on! Lol

I had a dream about cigarettes, but I didn't smoke in the dream. I was in a "valley" with mountains of cigarette packs surrounding me, all brands and types, and I remember thinking, "all I have to do is pick one, and I can have as many as I want". It was exciting and terrifying all at the same time.

A few months ago, I had a vaping dream, where I was using my Zen and a few people around me were using Blu's and I was trying to get them to "switch up". At some point I lost the Zen and had to use disposables and was just dreading it. After I woke up, I realized that I had turned the psychological corner from smoker to vaper.

Anyone have vaping dreams yet?

About 3 months into vaping I had a dream I was smoking and woke up so mad at myself! Then I realized I had not smoked and was happy as a clam all day!

I was dream shot last night, once in the knee, twice in the back after i went down It was interesting though, i always wondered what I'd do when somebody pulled a gun on me, in the dream i tried to go for a grab but was a few feet too far to have a chance :/ hard to judge distances in dreams.

As for smoking - I've never seen myself neither smoking or vaping in a dream.. or eating or drinking for that matter, weird.

I hate that! Not had it for a while but I have been dream shot many a time!

I had dreams that I was smoking for about a week straight. Not sure but I guess it was because of being around a lot of smokers at that time? And Ive been smoke free for about 3 years. I told my girlfriend about the dreams and she said if I smoked one cigarette she'd kill me I can only assume she was kidding..lol..uh yeah thats it. Well I didnt smoke and the dreams went away.

From years of sobriety, I still occasionally have drunken dreams. I believe it's our subconsciousness keeping us with our feet on the ground.

Yea during the first 2 months of quitting i had like 6 smoke dreams, i was so disappointed and felt horrible about myself, I then woke up and realized it was just a dream. I was so relieved it was awesome waking up knowing its behind you.

No dreams about the cigs so far, But I have Had some intense nightmares lately....

Mostly involving Drinking since I've been Liquor free for over 2 months now. Obviously drinking and getting into heaps of trouble. Not to mention I was in 2 car accidents back home on Kaua'i and I keep having bad nightmares involving car accidents.... I hope it's not PTSD cause It was pretty bad and Ive had a few bad ones since. Worst part is they feel so real it's scary, Waking up in sweat and fear of waking up in a hospital is not something I ever want to relive..
