A year+ without

Every now and then I'll have one of those moments where your not quite 100% asleep and yet not quite awake yet and during some of these times I'm dreaming I'm smoking and enjoying the taste and the heat and feeling, and ect, and ect...   I often wake up wondering if I had started back up again the night before.

  One day short of one year and four months without a cigarette. do any of you that have quit so long ago have any simililar situations?  I never end up having cravings but these dreams often are quite real if you know what I mean...

I do have those dreams on occasion but they are happening less and less : (  I really enjoy(ed) them.
At first I was confused and felt a bit guilty but it never intruded on my awake time so I just went with it ; ) If I should stop altogether, I will truly miss it.

So yes, I have been quit longer and hope I have one from time to time : )

Hey there and congrats on your year and four months!  I know many people have smoking dreams, but I've never had even one.  I've quit several times over the last 3yrs and the first time I quit it was a good amount of time (1yr) and I never dreamt of smoking.  I am 109 days today with my fourth and God willing, last quit and still no dreams.  I think I should consider myself lucky :)

I know quite a few who Have dreamt of smoking so I'm sure they'll chime in.
