Intoxication in a dream often symbolizes a loss of control. This can have negative or positive connotations. On one hand, a dream of being intoxicated can mean that you have given up power over an important part of your life. On the other hand, if you dream that you are intoxicated, your dream can mean that are giving up some of your responsibilities in order to obtain some needed relaxation.
You may dream that you are intoxicated when you have taken on too much responsibility and need to relax.
Dreaming that you are intoxicated can be a sign that you are trying to avoid upsetting thoughts.
A dream about intoxication can represent a change in your level of awareness. You may be seeing things in a new way for the first time.
If you feel extreme emotion – whether positive or negative – as a result of being intoxicated in your dream, your dreaming mind could be telling you that you are overreacting about something.
