Had a year and 3 months on July 3rd. Suddenly I am dreaming about the stuff again
Do what you must to stay strong...whatever that is...working a program, calling a friend, going to the gym, taking a walk...I'm not an addict, but my girl is. Just wanted to step up and offer a few words, however inadequate and to let you know there's some good folks her who will be along to help...

Hi Dee, congrats on your year and 3 months.............ain't that awful how BAM that pops up and ya think where the he*l did that come from............that's powerful when that happens.........well I think anyway cause you're like "STILL"?
Must be the mind and memory and subconcious I guess Dee, but I've had that too and I know alot of other people that have............no reason to pick up now...........you've come so far................like M&M said you know how to switch it off..............work to where you do something else to freakin move that out...............those dreams and all.
Hope you're alright now Dee.................hoping you come back as well........writing and talking about I think always helps.

Hey dee, i get dreams like that all the time, even tuesday had fish for my tea then dreamed that was fishing in the Tay and the fish i caught i was able to burn them and turn them into smack???? WTF? I think i will always get the odd dream about drugs, hell, i liked drugs...just not all the s*** that went with it. Try not to let it get to you. You're doing great with your clean time the odd dream and thought about drugs is natural. But, it doesn't mean we will go out and use just cos we dream/ think about them . Take it easy Kev
The problem is, in my dreams, I am never able to get off. Something always happens tp prevent it - - then I wake up.
Now, awake- I feel frustrated & feel like I missed something. However, we both know that we didnt miss a fucqing thing.Do you have these dreams a lot?
Its been awhile since you used. usually they stop or subside after awhile

hi dee,
congratulations on 1 yr 3 mnths... it only gets better from here.... I have been clean from crack for 4 yrs 5 mnths and i had the dreams.... they drove me crazy .... and I too was always chasing the drug i the dream never getting it, and also waking up very frustrated (as someone else also mentioned experiencing), they were pretty regular at least once or twice a week sometimes more for the first 2 yrs.... in the 3rd year they got further and further apart... and this year I had only one dream, and this time it was different.... this time I had the rocks in pocket and the pipe in my hand and I didn't use.... and I woke up feeling good instead of the yucky old feelings from the frst 3 yrs.I think it is just your subconcious mind working out a bunch of old feelings and eventually they do work out.So stay strong and they will go away ..... don't let them get the best of you.

I still have dreams 3 years off heroin. Mostly it's me trying to score in my dreams yelling at dope boys about prices or the size of the bag. I spent so much of my addiction "waiting on the man" i have dreams of sitting waiting endless waiting. Every so often i'll dream about mixing it up when i go to bang it up the needle breaks or i never get a vain. Recently i was dreaming about finding a vain i keep missing then my teeth started falling out then my lips and face were melting totally CRAZY dream. I dream about many drugs not just h but, the h dreams tend to get to me the most.
I get using dreams here and there too. I hate them, cause I would be craving for H for most of the day.
