smoking dream


16 years ago 0 317 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I had another smoking dream last night. This time in my dream I knew I had quit, but I smoked anyway! SCARY! I'm going to really keep my guard up after that.

Thanks everyone!! It's good to know that I'm not alone on this and that I might have them further into my quit. Aloha, I had to change my attitude with alot of things because I really want to maintain my quit. I gave up on trying to control my teen daughter. She was one of my big time triggers and it got to the point where I won't let her get the best of me and we seem to get along better. She knows I love her and I'm easier to live with so it's helped. I don't worry about what if this and what if that, what will be, will be and I deal with each crisis on an individual basis. Anyway great stats everyone and thanks for the continued support!!

How funny, Kayla I had one last night....first one in a long time. I wasn't going to post about it, but now I see that some of the long term quitters had them for quite a while too. I was so disappointed in myself, and very relieved when I woke up this morning, to know it was just a dream. btw, you are doing awesome. There seems to be such a change in attitude this time, like you are enjoying this, rather than it being a horrible thing. That you dealt with your mom's hospital stuff without even thinking of lighting up is a major victory. Cigarettes have no role in stress reduction. I am very very proud of you :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 251 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 10,040 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,706.80 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 35 [B]Hrs:[/B] 1 [B]Mins:[/B] 14 [B]Seconds:[/B] 10

Yup, I used to get them pretty frequently. I remember in one I was glad that I did it and was bummed out that I didn't smoke it more slowly in order to enjoy it. :blush: It didn't impact my quit though! I had one a few months ago and I was pretty lucid while it was going on. I bought my brand, remembered that I didn't have a lighter anymore and would need matches and the cashier gave me the wrong change. I did light the cigarette and thought it was gross and was surprised I was smoking. I also have flying dreams but haven't taken flight yet :) Kayla, they'll pass and it sounds like you are right on track. Congrats on those 23 Days!

Hello CC and all! Yes, I have had these dreams as well. I'm a cold turkey quitter. What really freaked me out was dreaming I was smoking, realizing what I was doing and dropping the cigarette like it bit me or something. Then I'm half awake thinking I dropped a lit smoke in my bed and start tearing it up looking for it! {Just another little benefit of being a smoker huh? The wonderful chance of burning down your home.} Good-bye to all that mess! Glad I'm done with it.

Hi crazycuban! I'm so glad to hear that your mom is home and feeling better. I am on Chantix too, and I've had a few smoking dreams. I've had the kind where I smoke and wake up feeling freaked out that I've ruined my quit, and I've had the kind where someone offers me a smoke and I tell them "no thanks, I don't smoke". I actually get a kick out of most of my vivid dreams. Some are quite bizarre. You are going so awesome with your quit! Soon you will be celebrating one month!!

I used to have lots of dreams! Dreams are even more vivid if you wear the patch at night. Smoking dreams are normal,if rather weird - and that's without ANY medication!! I don't get them that often any more (maybe once a year), but in year 1, I had quite a few. I thought it was an encouraging sign because I really did not want to smoke, and was horrified that I had started again....until I woke up. ;p But very strange - I wonder if it is psychological or physical.

Use your pharmacist and doctor to inquire about side effects and dosages. They have a world of knowledge to give :) Josie, Support Specialist

I'm on th patch and have had some odd ball dreams as well, but nothing bad enough that I want to take the patch off at night. I've heard this is pretty common so all we can do is hope for sweet dreams!
