my junkie dreams

[nsd_user663_37447]

I've had vivid dreams of smoking for the last 5 nights. I know this is my brain trying to get to me while I least expect it. I awoke today with thoughts of how lame my life is. I'm 33 y/o and I have no vice. I quit drinking years ago and now I don't smoke. *yawn* I feel 50 today .

cmon damaged receptors ... NEXT!

You'll have nothing left to quit at this rate! I think my drinking has increased to take account of the lack of smoking!

I had some pretty strange dreams though for the first month or so.. Very weird, but thankfully calmed down a bit now!

Well said Karri lol

If you think smoking and drinking make you a more exciting person you need to get out more.

Oh and just for the record - being 50 doesn't make you a sad no life bore

Kids today huh:rolleyes:

My dad is nearly 50, and his life is much more exciting than mine, he's also much fitter as well :rolleyes:.

With the dreams, there are several ways to go about it. One is to just try and ignore them. My personal way though, is to embrace them. They are what they are, just memories of before. I still dream of eating bacon, and enjoying it, but I don't do it in 'real life' (vegetarian). I wake up thinking, 'Mmm, that was nice', in the knowledge that I don't have to feel guilty!! Same goes for smoking dreams, dreams about men I like, dreams about telling work to eff off etc

As for vices, they're overrated anyway IMO :D.

OMG Elisa - You are soooo right about those oldies - that is EXACTLY how they are LOL! Especially the ones with health problems - what is their problem? :confused:

I think we should just ignore them all and just talk about the things that really matter.

*coughs* *splutters* *chokes* Hmmm you feel 50huh? So what does a 50 year old feel like?

I gave up drinking a month before I stopped smoking, I am 51 and I can tell you I feel as fit as a fiddle.:cool:

But anyway, I do wish you luck with your quit.

I know how you feel although I am a little older than you at 44 :eek:

I gave up drinking on February 7 2010 (it was getting out of hand, must be my addictive personality) and now have given up smoking so I too have no real vices except perhaps slightly overeating at the moment.

My boyfriend says I am not to give up anything else!!!

I had a few smoking dreams in the first few weeks of giving up but rest assured they do subside.

Take care

Hmmm. I'm nowhere near 50 but if I was, as I know some of the lovely folk on here are, I would find this all a little offensive and unnecessary.

Hey ho.
