Dreams build stories around associations, such as drugs being associated with altered states of mind, which might be a way of saying you haven’t been feeling like your usual self. You’re fooling yourself, the same way an addict does. You’re acting compulsively, taking risks. Or you want to escape reality. Drugs can be used to tell a story about someone acting like a user: isolated, sleeping a lot, always broke. They’re associated with addiction. Drug addiction is comparable to other addictions—sex, food, gambling—and the associated thoughts and feelings. These sorts of addictions are known to provide a high, often followed by a low, so a comparison with drugs works as symbolism on two levels: the nature of the situation, and feelings connected with it. See: Addicts Drugs are associated with experimentation, trying something new. They’re associated with wasting your life, being a loser, being low on the social totem pole like some drug addicts are. Drugs are a temptation and can symbolize temptation. See: Candy Injecting drugs can symbolize taking in bad influences or negativity. See: Injecting Giving up an addiction is known to spark powerful dreams. The question behind them is often, “Do you remember why you gave up your addiction?” The dream will put the dreamer back into scenes of buying or being offered drugs. And the reaction really tells the story about resolve to kick the addiction. For example, a man who quit smoking weed dreams about hiding beneath a massive pot plant and stuffing his pockets with its buds, symbolizing that he knows he’ll smoke again in the future. A man who quit a drug addiction dreams he’s in the back seat of a car driven by his former drug dealer. The dealer’s girlfriend, in the passenger seat, holds up a baggie of the dreamer’s favorite drug, which is how things used to work when he’d make a buy. He turns down the offer and asks to be dropped off, but instead the dealer continues driving to a cemetery and buries the dreamer in a grave. The dreams shows that the temptation to go back to his old ways is still there, symbolized as being offered the drug, and his reaction tells the story: his resolve is stronger. Getting buried means that the addict part of himself is gone. It’s a great sign. See also: Abusing, Addicts, Alcohol, Candy, Cocaine, Drunkenness, Injecting, Overdoses
