Bad habits in dreams?

Do our bad habits from waking life follow us into our dreams? I’m a smoker and don’t recall ever having smoked a cigarette in a dream, but has anyone else? How about something like fingernail biting? I wonder if I had a LD (I’ve only had one low-level LD so far) and tried doing something like smoking, how it would be…at least it wouldn’t be harmful! :content: I did used to take painkillers and if I didn’t have any I might dream about trying to find some but that’s about it (haven’t dreamt about pills since I stopped taking them). I’ve been smoking for at least 12 years straight and I don’t recall ever once smoking a cigarette in a ND and my boyfriend says the same goes for him. Any thoughts or ideas?

No ideas here,but i can confirm similar thing.Im a smoker for about 10 yrs and many times wondered why i have never had one dream when i smoke.
Been thinking about it but never really came up with anything.

Hah. I read that yesterday a bit before I went to bed, then last night, I had my first (that I can remember) dream smoke:

I was in Paris, going to use some money I had to get my hair cut. I decided I didn’t really need a haircut after all, so spent the money of a pack of Dunhills. Then I was walking up the driveway of a house I used to live in and lit one up… it tasted like a mix of chocolate and coffee.

The only bad habit that carries over from waking life to my dreams is not questioning whether I’m dreaming or awake enough :content:

If only real cigarettes tasted like that! :content:

And to Josh Redstone, I couldn’t agree more!

Ditto.
