    I've been like 6 days without porn and today I had a crazy dream in which I was sitting down on the computer watching a beautiful girl doing porn , I woke up believing that I relapsed but after few seconds I realized it was just a dream, but it was a vivid one.
    These days I've been having problems to sleep so I've been taking some pills but this dream was so real though is not a wet dream I haven't ejaculated or something like that.
    Do you guys have any advice dealing with this kind of vivid dreams?
     
  2. I think that it's normal as your brain slowly rewires itself during the process, though it's pretty annoying and daunting it's something you can't really control. Sometimes I'd get a dream like that and I'd wake up to find myself freaking out and thinking that I've relapsed again.

    It's not too bad because the reason why your brain gets these dreams is because you're not feeding it with what it wants, and the desires will slowly fade away as long as you embrace the journey and finally rewire your brain, good luck!

    Dreams are healthy and healing and not occasions of falling - and wet dreams are nature's way of release in male biology - they don't contribute to the hard-wiring of PMO addiction, but just the opposite. Think of the shocking images of dreaming PMO as your mind cleaning itself out - the images are surfacing and leaving you from years of reinforcement, not sinking into you and wiring you - this is what dream work does and should do. Don't be alarmed and don't try to repress nature's dream work or wet dreams), else you'll just unconsciously sublimate the frustrated energy into future destructive sexual patterns - PMO or worse.

    Thank you guys for your support , the good thing is that I feel very strong in someway feel like I can control any aspect of my life. Quitting this addiction is the best.

    Oh man, what a great statement - "Quitting this addiction is the best". I have to meditate on that one. Wish I could say that, too. Indeed, I need to be able to say that.

    BTW, I like you avatar pic - sometimes I feel like I'm on fire, too, but not necessarily my hand.

    I have the same issue & it's about 5 months after I quit porn ...still I'm dreaming about porn almost everyday & the visual are so vivid , sometimes u feel like I just relapsed or fapped using porn , but after that I will find out that it's just dream ,that much realistic it was . But what I noticed is that , in really life now I didn't have a great carving for porn it decreased drastically .. my sexual fantasies also changed now I didn't fantasies about porn .. now I can saw how beautiful a girl is her smile, her eye's ...

    I WAS BLIND BUT NOW I SEE

    I'm glad with time it can get better, I'd tell you to enroll in a sport and do some meditation as well as doing something mentally challenging. I do have porn dream but are not a thing of everyday, so try to do more activities to distract your mind (this is the way I'm dealing with this issue)

    Go for it man , you can do it ! SALUDOS :)

    [You dream sex...but feel better and fewer cravings] That's because your dreams are actually healing events, not recapitulating or reenacting the sex acts per se. Instead, your dream work is surfacing the PMO images from many years of compression and letting these arise and come out of you as a way to cleanse and heal you, not entering into you and sinking and reinforcing an addicted brain. Dream work is always therapeutic - even nightmares - and especially sex dreams in those in PMO recovery. Don't fear or desire the repression of them. Your system is trying to decompress into wholeness and health. Godspeed!
