However, if you dream about something then it means in some corner of your mind you wish the thing. So if you dream of using drugs that means at least partially you wish it. <br />That does not mean that other parts of your mind do not find doing drugs reprehensible. Also the painful emotions that occur while you are indulging in "using dreams" are punishment for wishing to slip back in to your habit. <br />It is not that once you resolve to give up drugs the temptation to do them again is completely wiped out of your mind. The temptation persists and you have to constantly fight with it. The fight persists in the dreams as well, where the temptation to do drugs is shown as once again using them and the scary emotions that turn the dream in to nightmare emerge to put a halt to this temptation.

The problems that drove you to drinking they are no longer overpowering you during daytime. But they continue to emerge in sleep when your conscious mind (ego) is taking rest. <br />It is good that you are indulging in drinking only in dreams. Dreams are like safety valve. They allow you to act out harmful behaviors in sleep/dreams rather than in real life. The painful emotions that were driving you to drink during the day are now driving you to do so only in dreams. This is a step forward. It means they are losing their grip over you. They are forcing you to drink but just in dream where it is kind of make belief not real drinking. <br />If you continue to resist the temptation to drink during the day the dreams/nightmares of drinking and living your former lifestyle will become less and less strong.

I live a sober life now, I can control my thought process during the awake hours its the sleep time what ever u want to call it I cant control. It Is scary to have my old ways so vivid and real in my sleep. From the feeling of being drunk to the search for money and how I am going to get my next drink, it makes me want to drink terribly bad upon waking which is not good, hopefully through time and working my program I can one day have peace from this disease.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7318753641065692730.post-14142824083709832732012-04-07T12:48:12.071-07:002012-04-07T12:48:12.071-07:00The word God was used rhetorically.

It is actually paraphrasing Einstein's famous quote :God does not play dice with the universe.<br />Your knee-jerk antipathy to the word God itself may have its roots in ambivalence towards your father. God replaces father once we are indoctrinated with religion, and the emotional attitude towards one's father is reflected in one's attitude towards God/religion. <br />Your view that parts of dreams are significant and other parts have meaning is echoing of the views of Hobson and McCarley. After embarking upon the project that dreams are chaos, and going on lecture circuits proclaiming that they have proven Freud wrong, soon even they, despite their blinkers, could not help but notice that some dreams are unabashedly coherent and some dreams cannot be viewed in any other way but as wishes coming true. So they came up with this brilliant compromise that well some parts of the dreams can be wish-fulfillment but overall they are as stupid as we.Surendra Kelwalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208258557612952541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7318753641065692730.post-85263867693198272252012-04-05T07:10:43.959-07:002012-04-05T07:10:43.959-07:00I saw the word "God" and wanted to stop ...I saw the word "God" and wanted to stop reading your comment. I don't feel that an omnipotent deity created by men has any place in scientific reasoning. There's no evidence whatsoever that nothing is random. In fact, all evidence supports the opposite and the burden of proof lies not on the scientists, but on the godly-believers. As for the meaning and significance of dreams to one's conscious life...like most everything else, the answer lies somewhere in the middle; dreams are probably a combination of random firing of cells AND subconscious desires. The trick is to weed out which parts of the dream are significant and which are nonsense. This statement brings us full-circle, back to the one point you made that I agree with: this middle-road does not appeal to the slothful mind and can only be accurately accomplished by someone with sufficient imagination and knowledge in the subject at hand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7318753641065692730.post-24283126588127918872011-04-09T08:38:38.881-07:002011-04-09T08:38:38.881-07:00Thanks for the comment.

In God's universe nothing is random.<br />The Activation-Synthesis hypothesis of dreams has captured the imagination of psychiatrists for the last 30 years and no doubt because they lack imagination and the unimaginative proposition that dreams have no meaning but are random firing of subcortical pontine cells that chaotically activate cortex and produce dreams has great appeal for the slothful. <br />Activation-Synthesis hypothesis has done great harm to practice of psychiatry. Since its appearance Mental health professionals en masse abandoned taking dreams as the royal road to the unconscious.Surendra Kelwalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17208258557612952541noreply@blogger.com
