Why do I smoke in my dreams?

Question

I have never smoked and have no desire to, but quite often in my dreams, I do. Sometimes it's the very first time and I have no problem with it. Other times in the dream I AM a smoker. I will even think to myself in the dream, "why am I smoking?"

Answer 1

I bet you know people around who smoke.
Smoking in the dream could symbolize lots of things. In your case, if you are around people who smoke, that it symbolizes peer pressure.

However, smoking also means a way to vent out your helpless conscience. Perhaps in reality, you are doing something that you don't feel accepted. Projecting smoking is to attract people attention subconsciously. Basically you are seeking for some sort of attention

Answer 2

I have the same dream. I used to smoke, I gave up about 20 years ago. I think it is just because there are still a lot of people who do smoke and when you want to socialize it is hard to find somewhere that doesn't have smokers, so you have to mingle where people do smoke and you know subconsciously that if you were a smoker too you would feel more comfortable in the crowd, even though you also know that you would smell unpleasant etc etc.

Answer 4

To dream that you are smoking cigarettes, means that you are trying to shield yourself and others against your emotions. You have trouble letting others in.

Answer 5

Whatever situation you are trying to address in your dreams, you are not seeing it clearly..... (dream pun "smoke gets in your eyes"...)
